Well it turns out that these little guys are actually quite quick to paint, somehow I was able to pretty much equal my January output. With this month’s entry I have certainly broken the back of the army as my total painted is over 80 models now!
Like last month I started with the planned 15 models in the new unit, and then added the other ten I had prepared since I had the time. This time the unit I painted are armed with simple hand weapons and shields:
Nothing too crazy here, standard models, no conversions, only more of the 3d printed shields.
Next up was some more bow and arrow Forest Goblins, another ten in total including a musician:
Finally I worked on a small unit of Wolf Riders. Technically not a Forest Goblin unit, although I did use Forest Goblin archer models on plastic wolves so they thematically fit with the rest of the army. The reason for taking this unit is simply to enable me access to some Common Goblin special units which I have also converted to fit the theme and will hopefully feature next month. Anyway here are my wolves:
This was also the first time I have ever painted these classic plastic wolf models, I tried to go for a natural tone to contrast with the bright spiders:
This month I managed to paint the following:
Oh, something I forgot to mention earlier but I am making each unit have it's own distinct colour scheme. So the feathers and tunics etc. will all be shared colours. This also carries over to an attached archer unit and some sort of mounted unit. So this month you can see all of the feathers in these three units are red and yellow, last month they were blue and purple. I thought this would be a nice way of having variation in the army but also some unity between units.
Anyway, next month is spider time, slightly bigger ones this time!
There are mindblowing !! I love those gobbos !
ReplyDeleteThat's incredible output for the shortest month, well done! Already an impressive force of beautiful, colourful gobboes. I really like how you've painted the wolves, the colours give them a realistic feel without clashing with the slightly cartoony sculpts.
ReplyDeleteI love your lush bases. They remind me of the bases of Kev Adams painted old war machines
ReplyDeleteThe different coloured feathers are a nice detail to differentiate units.
ReplyDeleteThese are some of my favourite models, very well executed. The feathers and basing in particular are excellent
ReplyDeleteOutstanding output. The basing alone looks brilliant, and a lot of effort! - let alone the lovely paintjob....Love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat's not to love - goblins
ReplyDeleteMate, you smashed February out of the park. What a great standard for that volume of output! :)
