Don't be bored Gaming

 Painted up two board games recently and forgot to post them here!  First up is one of my favorite games to take out for a laugh: Dungeon Quest


I got lucky when Fantasy Flight reprinted the game and picked up the GW version along with the expansions for a cheap price!  Since then they've been awaiting a paint job.  I really enjoyed working on these classics.





After painting so much Cthulhu Wars stuff lately I thought it only right to paint up my copy of The Doom that Came to Atlantic City!  Best monopoly variant and I will fight you tooth and tentacle over it...










Is that Ranking and Flanking I hear?

With Cthulhu Wars all painted up (again) and several board games getting a treatment I felt like its time to paint what I consider 'comfort models' ie DWARVES!


It's been a long time since I've done and painting for Kings of War (still my favorite and only war game anymore!) so lets crack open some real classic models!



Always loved this sculpt of Ungrim and long since wanted to have one of my own.  He's just so blocky and cute!  Who's a little slayer-king?


This one has been on my list for ages as well the 30th aniversary white dwarf model with the dwarf himself, Gotrek and Bugman all in one!



And the last addition is my first unit of Ironclad drinking lads!  These models came from so many sources I honestly don't know all of them!  Some kickstarters, a few GW ones even some reaper but lots of personality!

My Favorite Lovecraft Story!

 I absolutely love the Colour out of Space so when someone made rules for the faction in Cthulhu Wars I had to get to work on some minis!  


All the miniatures were designed by myself in blender (I'll have STLs up soonish).


The coloured parts are painted with color changing paints so depending on the lighting angles it can shift from green, to blue or even purple!



I started out modifying the standard cultist replacement on thingiverse however after realizing I won't be able to sell those I went back and sculpted a new husk from scratch.  I'll still put up the STL of these little guys though.


The meteors are so small and cute and I love making falling sounds while placing them on the board.


I'm still finalizing everything for the sets that will be for salebut I have one printed so far, need to stock up.  Stay tuned at my Etsy Store for more fun!


And since I was missing the official colour out of space expansion I had to paint up some more gates for that as well!



The Fungi!

Still playing League of dungeoneers via camera and discord with a friend.  Really enjoying the game and with the new expansion I need to paint up some new monsters that Warhammer Quest isn't already providing!


You know you have a problem when one of your favorite games adds a selection of Shroom Fold and you just open up a few boxes and find out you already have everything you need...



 Space Crusade is still moving along as well  The Blood Angels are ready to board the hulk!

Infernal Finish!

 And here we are at the end of the Heroes III road! 



The infernal faction was a bit intimidating knowing just how much flame effect I would be doing going into it.


The heroes really stand out with the fiery manes!


And a big old final picture (at least until more expansions come out!)

The Night Cage

 I've been really looking forward to this game its a co-op claustrophobic maze survival game with plenty of nasty monsters chasing you around with nothing but a candle to cling to.  Of course I had to paint it up after the first game with the wooden meeples!




My first game (outside of Table Top Sim) ended in a win but just barely!  Played on the base game advanced mode which really spices it up.


No the tea lights are not mandatory but they are fun!

Beginning a Quest in Space

Really going back in the catalogue to combat the unpainted masses.  This time back to 1990 with Space Crusade.  Finished up the first squad of Ultramarines and printed out some fancy bases for them as well:


Taking some extra time on this project, its honestly an amazingly well done game and fun to play.

Jungle Delvers!

 Heroquest has moved to the jungles and I had to get the latest expansion painted up!  Nice to paint some less generic dungeon denizens for sure!



Lots of fun bright colors to paint this time which always makes me happy.


The new heroes seem like they will be very fun to play as.


The new furniture is really fun and a departure from some of the normal furniture.  I do wish the water basins and the fire would be separate.  I can't do the OSL on the flames without the water looking weird.


I will say the dupe sculpts on the cultists from the previous expansions was kind of a let down.  Just having a new paint scheme seems a little meh.


And that's made up for with raptors having feathers!  Love it!


The goblin warlock is kind of fun, didn't really want to paint more skeletons and goblins but they wil lbe nice to have gameplay wise.


Really liked the new undead models in this.  A nice departure from the usual zombies and skeletons.


The new large monsters are the real stars of the expansion and fun but easy paint jobs.  Really liked painting these and saved them for the end.

More Homebrew, More Madness!

 Finished up the more Cthulhu War's homebrew factions!  



The Defiler's Court gets the honor of being the faction that starts with nothing and summons their great old one right off the bad step 1!



And to top it off we have the last of the Table Top Sim Discord factions the First born!

A Shop of Fun!

First up I finished up the Tombstalkers faction for Cthulhu Wars!  Really running out of color schemes now its getting tough!



And for Magnum I finished up all the custom dice as well.  My printer is starting to ask for a raise so I guess I gotta start going capitalistically evil...




First up on the shop are a selection of power markers for CW.  Cute little tentacles to replace the rather uninspiring skull rocks.



And a custom die for randomizing your faction selection:


There's even more stuff with minecraft inspired cute statues and obviously more to come in the future!

Heroes and Cultists

 Started up the Cthulhu Wars factory again.  This time I'm doing print and play versions of the discord Table Top Simulator factions.  Starting with Magnum Immonimandum.  There's even custom dice printed but I'm still painting those up.



And the The Progenitor faction is finished as well. By far the largest CW faction!





Finished all of my Heres of Might and Magic too at least until the alst faction arrives in the wave two shipping.


And finally the Castle Faction is all done!  I was dreading this faction but actually really enjoyed painting it

Divine Choir

 Got the bug to make my own Cthulhu Wars Faction:


Yep Biblical angels come to lower that doom!  Always enjoy painting up something weird, all 3d printed from various models.


Even got a few playtests in!


Still needs more testing but feel free to give it a go:
