In each of the last couple of challenges I've painted a few of these little fellas - from a bag that was gifted to me when I was thinking about branching out and painting some fantasy figures for Saga and/or Kings of War.
I believe these gobbos are from an old GW starter set - presumably some previous edition of the soon to be revived Warhammer Fantasy Battles. The sculpts might be considered Old Skool by modern standards - although anything that's later than 1980s Minifigs is Avant-Garde in my book.
This is only my second submission for Challenge 14 - I'm going to try and make it around most of the library areas before Spring but got off to a slow start due to no preparation (unless you count preparation for Challenge 13) and some priming issues.
Summary
7 x 28mm minis = 35 points
Fantasy Section Bonus = 20 points
Total = 55 points
2nd section of the library - slow progress |
I still get a bit of PTSD from these particular goblins. I love the design, and how simple they are, but after painting a few hundred of them, I think I got a bit insane from it. Lovely work here, though I do wonder how you will base them in the future? Normally they need to be based to get full points, but being that they will go to Kings of War, I suspect then bigger group basing to be done? Would be great to see that when they are done as well!
55 pts for you ( but do hope to see the finished based photos in a future post ).

The sculpts seem new to me, but I guess it says something of my age... I like the colours and neat paintjob!
ReplyDeleteNice work- but it makes me sad they're not based!
ReplyDeleteLovely figures and painting, but for true Old Skool they really need goblin green bases 😉
ReplyDeleteSo good to see these old school figures they never lose their charm, love the green, all round great job on these
ReplyDeleteGreat work! Unfortunately you've reminded me I have a metric ton of my own to paint :-P
