Mordheim Beastmen and thugs [PICS]

Hello again fellow vampires! For a client on the lead adventure forum I painted up some beastmen (six to be precise) for use in Mordheim. I also painted up some thugs which are pictured below. All models are mounted on 25mm washers. It's a bit of a chore to do and I still don't really trust the superglue connection but it does look good smile

On the Beastmen I went for a very bestial look with red and black details. On the shields I added eight pointed chaos stars so these beastmen can be used for any chaos god. My favourite is the one with the bow. He has a very bestial face and reminds me of the Island of Dr. Moreau. He also has one hoof and one normal foot, excellent!

As said I also painted up a bunch of thugs for Mordheim. These received paint jobs with faded, dirty colours and lots of stubbles to make sure they look like scum. I gave several of them a Clubs tattoo (like in the deck of cards: ?) to connect them in a theme. I though this was fitting for a gang only armed with clubs smile. I love the dwarfs of this set and had a lot of fun painting them up!

This model was a bit damaged. I think his 'club' was originally an axe, hammer or mace whose head had been cut off. I painted it as a club. He also had a lump of milliput and glue residue on his back, so I cleaned him up and sculpted a pouch on his back using MagicSculp.

There is one Bugmans Ranger among the thugs who doesn't really belong but he would be too lonely on his own so I included him in the pictures. I painted the shirt (worn under the chainmail) and the shield blue as the client requested. I left the buff coat (worn over the chainmail) in a leathery colour as befits their background story. The shield design is a Bugmans Tankard in white painted on as a freehand.

Well, I hope you guys and gals enjoyed this update! I aim to paint about 50 models a week on a commission basis so don't hesitate to send me complete armies to paint wink

Come to think of it, if you send me 50 models or more to paint I'll give you a 10% discount on your order!
