(more on that later) Some of you may remember I posted some pics of the some skeletons I got give well here they are almost finished.. Though I now remember why I stopped painting them. I couldn't decide how to do the metal weapons i.e what colour to use the theory been these guy's have been dead for a while and when they were resurrected they just grabbed whatever was closest to them.. And then some very W.I.P ghouls yes they are the free mantic ones :p Like I say very W.I.P the rags will be toned down next then the flesh.. And onto what I have spent the Skeleton's were given to me and the Ghouls were free from mantic.. And what re-energised the project was purchasing Songs of Blade and Heroes so £3.20. Then I won on ebay last night 8 Old Alternate Armies goblins then in January I plan to get the Hasslefree goblin wizard and a pack of the Alternate Armies Lesser goblins.. Oh and some form of necromancer (quite like the heresy Female wizard). Oh and one last thing if anything looks odd or doesn't match a wizard did it :p

Cheers Mr Clean hopefully I'll try and decide on metal colours :/

Sir S&Malot Posts: 1,267 Group: Members Member #48 Joined: Sep 27, 2008	I was looking through ebay at goblins just seeing if I could find a bargain or two like I did on the other ones.. Anyway I saw the Salute 08 Goblin Wolf Rider and then it struck me like a brick going through a greenhouse... I have one of those Mine will need painting but excellent for a hero for the Goblins (other than the shaman obvs) So that'll be based up and undercoated Slightly different style but I'll just say he got into a fight with an inter dimensional meth addicted bear on a shark.. Don't ask how I found that image but it's been keeping me chuckling like a nut job all day... Edited by kfc v lot, Mar 12 2011, 07:08 PM.

Sir S&Malot Posts: 1,267 Group: Members Member #48 Joined: Sep 27, 2008	So I take it it's about 2 million of the cheapest troops? And the idea was to just swarm them? :p Hehe, yeah I dunno how well it will size up we'll have to wait and see. Hopefully I'll get the Goblins by friday so I can get them undercoated and maybe try o get some done over Christmas.

Sir S&Malot Posts: 1,267 Group: Members Member #48 Joined: Sep 27, 2008	Right time to drag this back from the dead with small update.. The goblins arrived and were glued to 2p's still need to glue the HF and the 4A ones to 2p's. Oh and today I ordered the fell queen and a ghoul king from heresy.
