Unboxings and Tutorials!

Hey everyone!  I just finished filming a "How to Paint Less-Armored Vampire Counts Skeleton" video, and it should hopefully be up later tonight.  In the next week, I've got a lot more unboxings and tutorials planned so keep watch for them on YouTube.  I'll be posting all the pics here so keep checking back to my blog as well, and thanks for all of your support!

If you haven't seen my newest Bragg the Gutsman unboxing video, here it is!

Ogre Updates, and Izzy Taetorial on the way!

Hey everyone!

I know I haven't posted here in a while.  Things have been pretty crazy in real life, not to mention the release of the Vampire Counts has kept me pretty busy.  Anyway, I want to thank everyone for subscribing to me here and for all of your submissions to the Warboss Wishlist, I have a great list of side projects now that I will definitely try to get to as the year progresses.  My hope for the year is to get the majority of them knocked off the list for your viewing pleasure (and my wallet's pleasure as I intend to sell off most of the one-off pieces that I don't currently have an army for).

Anyway, here are some pics of the Ogre Ironguts that I've been working on lately, as well as some pictures of the lovely Isabella von Carstein model that I'm currently working on a Warboss Taetorial for. 

The Ogres are part of an Ironguts squad that was seconded to the Nordland Navy, and they still wear their former regimental colors of Blue and Yellow.

As for Izzy, you'll notice that she's not nearly done, but the majority of her basecoats and washes have been applied.  Part 1 of the Taetorial is rendering for upload as I type this, and as soon as its on YouTube, I'll get to work on Part 2.   Thanks for all your support in reading this blog!

Warboss Wishlist

I've decided to start compiling all of the requests that I've received over the years, through my Youtube inbox.  I'm going to try getting to them as much as possible, and I'll show off the list once I have it all written out, but if you'd like to get in on this action, just write a comment on what you'd like to see me paint up in a tutorial and I'll be sure to try getting to it.

(please read the following out loud in a fast, monotone voice for the best effect) WARNING - having your model on the Warboss Wishlist does not necessarily guarantee that Warbosstae will paint it.  Warbosstae is very busy with painting other models, making awesome videos, and living a life outside of the wargaming hobby that is also very awesome.  Adding your request to the Warboss Wishlist may or may not result in the following side effects: Involuntary Blowhole, Sweat Pants, and Mind of Mencia.

"Iron Hammer" and "Brunhilda" join the other Leadbelchers. Unit's DONE, son!

Leadbelcher Tutorial Incoming!

That's right, playahs! 

As my computer goes about the herculean task of rendering and uploading the massive WarbossTaetorial to YouTube, I thought I'd upload some pics of my 2nd Leadbelcher, and the one that I used for the painting tutorial.

He is a little cleaner than the test model, and I haven't yet given hi a tattoo, but I did freehand his gutplate with the name "Long Tom" which was the name the Empire troopers had given to the cannon he bears into battle.  Let me know what you think!

In order to paint the gutplate banner, I started with the base of Chaos Black, over which I painted a strip of Khemri Brown.  Then, I used my Micron .005 pen to outline the scroll, after which I painted in Bleached Bone and Skull White highlights.  Finally, I used the pen to carefully write in "Long Tom"
