RATS !

In times of turmoil, In times like these
Beliefs contagious, Spreading disease
This wretched mischief is now coursing through your souls,
Never to let go...
Them rats!

It's ok not to aim for your best damn paintjob everytime you sit. It's a hobby after all, something we like doing, we have fun out our time spent on.

In a nutshell, lockdown + roleplaying.

Already had the minis needed but one thing: Rats for sewer encounters so sculpted them in a couple of sittings and next day they were painted and ready. Nothing to call home about, wanted them hairy, comic looking and not boring, something hard to achieve on such small (20mm square base) and simple pieces. Tryed giving them different fur coloration but still look too samey. No regrets tho. Quick and Fun, and my players loved the run.

Writing and editing at the moment 5 posts, hopefully you'll get a new post from now on every 2 days. Stay tuned.

IIII

Ya está bien no ir siempre a por lo mas alto y superar tu última pieza, porque te puedes rayar mas que un disco de Chimo Bayo. Al fin y al cabo es un hobby.

En dos palabras; confinamiento y Rol.

Tenía todas las minis necesarias para una sesión epicodecadente post chorrapunk excepto una: rataspara los encuentros cloaqueros. Nada para echar cohetes, las hice en un par de sentadas y las pinté en un rato. Queria ratas muy peludas, para un plus de asquete submundil extrafecal, tipo cómic y que no fueran un bodrio, algo difícil dada la diminutez (5 bichos en una peana de 20mm). Intenté variaciones en el tono de los pelajes pero tampoco es que se distinga mucho. En fin, me la pela. Parece ser que se lo pasaron bien jugando y yo haciendolas, punto.

Escribiendo y editando 5 entradas, con suerte cada 2 días material nuevo, permaneced atentos.

    1. The image of a centipede crawling out off a skull eye socket is a powerful one.

      I'm taking notes on that! Appreciated!

    3. I won't. Just seeing its picture I had enough, such hideous being I don't want to see moving:

      BTW I noticed it has 10 legs instead of 8, I suspect it's a scorpion (a f*kung ugly one) just called that way.

  3. Lovely little sculpts! They've turned out really characterful and the paint jobs really make them pop!

    1. That coming from someone who sculpts his own stuff is a great compliment, thanks!!

  4. Very cute and very appropriate for the time we live in, all huddled together in our nest.
    Beautiful work!

    1. They are so tiny it reinforced my respect for your brushwork on 15mm. So hard to deploy highlights on such small space.

      Thanks!

    2. With 15mm you usually go for one or two highlights or a highlight and a wash, nothing really exciting. I usually opt to do a glaze on top of a highlight to blend it all together.

      Your work on these rats is a level higher than mine though.

  5. Esas peanas piden que pruebes ya el Nurgle's rot

    1. A ver si lo encuentro, o un sucedáneo. Pedir 1 solo bote pintura va a salir más caro el envío que el rot.

  6. 'Cuquiratas en la tubería tres'. Muy chulas.

    1. Mejor que crujirachas. Ir caminando sobre 'papas fritas' y que resulte que el suelo de la cloaca está tapizado con cucarachas...

      Iré modelando todo lo de FH el juego de rol para mis sesiones online a medida que consumo aventuras.

      Para la segunda, terror un the campinya ya dispongo de todo.

      Grrraciass por pasarte.
