"Fairy Showdown"

"Fairy showdown"

I looked over my miniatures stock and thought a diorama with these two fairies would be neat to make. They look like a great match.

I created this diorama from a variety of pieces I had on hand. The fairies are from Kenzer & Co. from a game called Fairy Meat. I don't remember their real names so I just called them "Assasin Fairy" and "Crazy Fairy".

I used detail material from several companies and model train grass flocking. The skull and dagger ground detail and rocks are from Games Workshop Warhammer Basing Kit. The ferns are from Life Like Little Landscapes from Pastime of the Square. I can not remember the name of the company that created the rock base Assassin fairy is standing on.

I posted a variety of pictures for this one from different perspectives and some close-up shots.

I used the picture of the smiley face bullet hole as reference for painting the detail on his shirt.

The Colonel, Anima Tactics

I painted this to look like Roy from Full Metal Alchemist. I customized & painted this figure for a friend who likes FMA.

I wanted a military look but this figure had an outfit with more “flare” shall we say. It had a frilly shirt, kind of puffy sleeves. Oh ~ and it was in 3 parts with a base too. I put the figure together by drilling holes in separate parts and using a small piece of rod / wire to pin it together with glue and modeling epoxy. I filed down the puffiness of the sleeves on his arms. I rebuilt the arms with the modeling epoxy.

I painted a very simple array on his glove (just a triangle). I really wish I could be more accurate but I could not do the exact detail.

Vandora Waverunner - Pirate

Female pirate painted for a friend.

This pirate looked fun and I could use bright colors. I hand painted the map. I used a map from Lego’s pirate map as a model. I have Lego pirate standing by for comparison. I was a bit afraid to do it but she turned out very nice.
