Well, we're definitely in the doldrums of the Challenge now. I'm sure many of us are either in the midst of projects, or catching their breath for the final push to the finish. I'm experiencing a bit of both, suffering a little deep-winter malaise, while also creeping forward with a few projects. I hope I can get most of them wrapped up in the next five weeks(!).
They have taken the bridge and the Second Hall. We have barred the gates but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes...drums, drums in the deep. We cannot get out. The shadow moves in the dark. We cannot get out. They are coming.
These are fairly old metal castings, from the release of the 'Shadow and Flame' campaign book in 2003. I'm not a big fan of painting dwarfs, but these models were a pleasure to work with. I also really liked the goblins, who's slight stature came as a nice change from the larger orcs. It reminded me that I really need to get some more of the goblin rank and file so we can get in some of the Moria scenarios down the road.

Great stuff. The tomb bits look like fun ones to paint
ReplyDeleteExcellent job, I do like the green on the dwarves, it feels like quite a hopeful colour amidst the doom and gloom. That scenery works really well too. I like the little skinny goblins too, certainly horrible little chaps.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff indeed boss, I can hear the drums in the deep, the drums, they are coming...
ReplyDeleteGreat work Curt! Love the final pic.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely great work here Curt.
ReplyDeleteLovely tomb terrain, goblins and dwarves!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Great entry Curt, but then again I love dwarves :-).
ReplyDeleteFantastic stuff there Mr Curt!!
ReplyDeleteGreat work dude. Indeed, a rare achievement of the GW sculptors was to create dwarf figures worth painting...these are excellent, it looks awesome man!
ReplyDeleteQuite a vision. There are few Dwarven drawers full of last nights ale with that look.

I do like painting dwarves, and the LotR ones are a treat. Also, you can't slip a skull past me!
ReplyDeleteGreat looking tomb, the last photo being pre barbecue 😄
