Helping Hands 7 - The squire

Seventh of the monthly posting of the other world Henchman in conjunction with Duke of the Blood Keep and Minis by Finch 


Old Citadel Giant Snail - Terrifying!
Thanks to this challenge I actually finished an otherworld figure. At the moment I am lagging behind on what I want to do, despite having nearly 2 weeks off.

 The squire started as a chore to get done but after breaking the back of the figure I eventually learnt to love him.Hopefully the next two in the challenge will be easier.
Otherworld Evil Wizard

 My total figure count for 2015 is going to be 192 and has stuck to mainly to my main on going projects:-

 D&D Adventures 97
Darkest Africa     67
US WW2             22
Call of Cthulhu       6

 Total                   192

 Unfortunately the distraction into WW2 prevented me finishing my masai (19 to go).

 For 2015 the intention is to finish the yanks  20 odd to go, the Masai and to carry on with the D&D stuff. I am also considering pushing out the remainder of my moderns z's but time will tell.

 Unfortunately I did get a job lot of around 500 war of the roses figures for next to nothing (roughly 3 years paining) and am tempted by the Lion Rampant rules.Other potential distractions are my ECW skirmish horror project (figures in a box somewhere) and to finish of my Saxons for Saga.

Helping Hands 3

Third of the monthly posting of the other world Henchman in conjunction with Duke of the Blood Keep and Minis by Finch This time it's the turn of the poor donkey, carrying an excess of adventurer baggage. I have tried feathering the body of the donkey with the intention of showing up the texture of the hairs but I am uncertain how effective it is. Similarly with the white underbody, I am wondering if I have gone too far down the legs. As a bonus I painted the Cerepod (or Grell for the original Fiend Folio), the poor donkey is doomed. The Cerepod is painted in similar colours to the one on the otherworld site which having looked up its entry in the Fiend Folio are not strictly speaking authentic! In addition ahead of starting on my Drow and Driders I have test painted two old GW Demonettes. Clearly the grey one is the test paint (however stupidly I forgot to note which grey I started with), the pink one was to try out some new paints. I tried something
