Gorgon Bonemastar-Killer of Dragons.

Frost Giants are known for their strength and fearlessness. But few surpass the warmaster, Gorgon Bonemastar.

Not only does he wear the bones of his defeated foes...

he even uses the lower jawbone of a dragon as his main weapon.

Those who are not intimidated by a giant that literally ripped a dragon apart to use this weapon, must truly be fools!

Gorgon Bonemastar is a large plastic piece I painted earlier this summer.

Technical Difficulties

Sorry for the delay in posts. Due to computer problems, it has been way too many weeks since my last post in August. Hopefully, I have solved the problem.

You Can Never Have Enough Milita

Colonial Milita was the original "Nation Guard" before the American Revolution.

Quality and training varied greatly from unit to unit. And uniformity of weapons was basically unheard of. As were uniforms in general, in both cases it was usually left to the individual soldier to supply his own clothing and weapon(s). 

 But what they lacked in training and uniformity, they made up in numbers. And as the Russians were fond of saying, large numbers of troops have a quality all their own.

These are plastic Warlord "Epic" scalepieces I painted in July.

Capture a Sacrificial Victim-Gain Fame and Power

No risk, no gain. 

Every common Aztec/Mexica warrior knew the fastest way to improve their lives was though capturing an enemy warrior in battle.

Those brave enough to risk their own lives to capture or conversely be captured, knew the danger. Success meant fame and honors, failure meant capture and being a human sacrifice to the gods by your enemies.

These are plastic pieces I painted last week.

A Queen fit for the Forest

Regina Arborum Silvae is not afraid to don her armor and fight for her people and lands.

Unlike many of her folk, she shuns bow and arrow weapons and prefers to face her foes in personal hand & hoof to hand combat.

Regina Arborum Silvae is a veteran of many battles and has never shied away from combat. In fact, she often tries to prove her valor by leading her troops into battle much to the chagrin of her husband Rex Aurei Silvae.

This can lead to some heated discussions!

                                        

Yet, they always make up in the end-for the sake of the family, kingdom and their love for each other, of course.

Both Regina Arborum Silvae & Rex Aurei Silvae are plastic pieces that I painted this month.

French Aid for the American Revolution

The Gatinais Regiment of French infantry marches to the drums in support of the American Revolution. 

The commander is dedicated to the American cause.

Vive la roi-Vive les Americains

These are the first of my 250 American Revolution forces that I began painting this month.

Whoa, I'm Really in the Wrong Place

With a flash of brilliant light our brave and cursed hoplite Hiktos Nuluk appears at the feet of a giant warrior in armor that literally has lightening energy radiating from it! Wherever this is it's not the World of Hiktos.

Dark Angels, Grand Master Azrael. and his minions are just as surprised as this diminutive warrior in Bronze Age armor suddenly appears before him. Perhaps this is a devious attack by the daemons of the Warp! Smiting the creature is probably the best course of acti...

Where did the small daemon go? For with a load pop, Hiktos disappears, the Ancient Gods have reclaimed the cursed hoplite back to his correct time. All to the consternation of the Grand Master who was looking forward to examining the innards of this strange creature. 

Hiktos is 25mm and gives a nice idea as to how massive is the Grand Master Azrael piece.
