My painted miniatures in 15mm and 25/28mm, covering all genres. https://www.facebook.com/One-of-My-Men-Became-Restless-100659928063858
I just finished doing the stones on my Citadel equivalents (coming soon) and more or less got it right. Maybe less. Otherwise, for your reference:
 |
| Perhaps you saw these "in progress" - they were demo models for skin and hair via various Contrast paints (link below). I ended up finishing them with Contrast too but didn't do much touching up after. |
 |
| I had a drop of left over off-white on the palette and decided to so something I never do as a layer painter - do an all-over dry-brush with it. I see some good dynamics here and there but I would do this again, but differently in the future. |
Details on hair and skin post here: http://flashman14.blogspot.com/2021/06/contrast-flesh-variants.html

| Nothing fancy - and probably not worth a post. But since these just went OOP as AC has (mostly) shuttered this month it may be worthwhile. |
 |
| Crusader Peasants and a Pegasus Russian house for scale |
These are made by Italeri and licensed to Warlord Games for Bolt Action and Black Powder. I love them. I probably should get another set of them.
For this first box I wanted to use every single piece that came in the box - the left overs really aren't useful for anything because of the dado join system and I didn't want to have unfinished joins on the ends.
I also hate short lengths of linear obstacles strung together - they look terrible on the battlefield as some always get bumped out of place or have unsightly gaps. Happy to take a hit to flexibility than have broken up lengths all over.
And try as I might, I really wanted to disguise the joins but obviously failed here and there. Still. I love'em!
 |
| I really love this Army Painter "Battlefield Basing: Grass Green" I used as a ground cover. Really terrific stuff; I'm a permanent convert now. I did use some of my many home made tufts to break it up - those are more evident in the top pictures than this one. |
 |
| These are based on styrene strips and I think I had intended to cut the ends back after I glued the walls down. I forgot what I meant to do but after I primed them I decided to just add bushes onto the finished ends. |
 |
| For the broken ends, I added fallen stones. In any event, I don't mind having natural gaps so units can file through apart from the gates. |
 |
| Quick Contrast job, drybrush, then mouth and claw detail and bob's yer uncle. This will be a random encounter in the 1812 Russian Retreat game, hence the snowy base. |
 |
| Some things I'm pretty proud of. I did what I could with this one but it's kind of an embarrassing entry. Started as a lazy one-shot Contrast job with dry brushed some highlights here and there, futzed and refutzed with the leaves, the eyes, ignored the vines as hair then finally just finished the base and called it good. |
 |
| Why the big exposed breasts? To feed her saplings, duh! Or is it to lure environmentalist tree-huggers to their doom? I love trees, but I don't LOOOOVE trees. |

The caboose is a deal breaker for many I'd guess.

I know the source of almost half of these - if you identified anything I couldn't, please let me know in the comments.
 |
| Everything but the Renedra |
 |
| Pic A. All but the three strip at left front are resin of some kind. If anyone recognizes the manufacturer I'll be happy to credit them. |
 |
| Pic B. These are all from the same manufacturer except for the verdi gris 18th century general in the back left. |
 |
| Pic C. All resin - came in the same set. Manufacturer? |
 |
| These are Armorcast Terraform - very lazy one-shot application of various Citadel Contrast colors. |
 |
| Pic D. The one at left is West Wind - not sure about the other two. These are Flames of War bases |
 |
| All Armorcast Terraform here. Four of these had a destroyed version to its right. |
 |
| Pic E. Can't remember who made these - any help? The center seems very obviously a Bishop from a chess set |
 |
| Pic F. Random set of resin headstones - another lazy Basilicanum Gray Contrast - no highlighting. |
 |
| West Wind with a pair of Citadel flankers - Contrast Basilicanum Gray again but with a dry brush of off-white to finish. (I'm getting better!) |
 |
| Pic G. Lazy Contrast again - these lead quartet came in a single blister - anyone recognize them? They are very very ugly. |
 |
| Two from Reaper - the pillar though is resin and comes from one of the unidentified sets above |
 |
| Armorcast Terraform - their destroyed versions below. Even the grass is destroyed! |
 |
| Pic H. Couple oddball ones I can't identify. Is the one on the right from RAFM? Came with a gargoyle? |
 |
| Pic I. More rando ones - no clue who made them. The one on the right with the cross is not part of the other three and is metal instead of resin. |
This entry concludes most of the bigger monument style memorials. Lots more strips of 2-3 headstones, and the mausoleums and crypts to do yet, but may are in progress.
