When I bought my vargheists I got 3, but ended up just using two and make a third from the small guy. Since those paintjobs looked the best together. Finally have I given the fourth a base, I out him on a base, which together with the painjob will make him easily visible as the vargoyle.

I did make some terrain back in June which I obviously didn't show. For the first time since June I picked up my brushes yesterday and started painting. Today I finished the corpse cart. I wanted it a bit grim and wanted to paint it fast to get started. I'm very happy with the result, I think...

I realised I never showed the end result. In the end I made another piece with two smaller ship settings and two hills, which turned out much smaller than I thought they would. I painted them brown and dark grey and then drybrushed, many layers. I ended with applying static grass and the clump...

The Wargames terrain from 1996 inspired me so yesterday I three this dolmen. I made some clump foliage as well. I Painted the dolmen and flocked it today, happy with how it turned out! Today I managed to get time to make this shipsetting. I have a good feeling about it!

Thank you! Here comes the finished zombies: And the full 45 man unit of zombies: I've had problems with making my unit trays too small. This one is too large, will it never be good? I'm very happy with how these turned out. I've put the brush to a blood knight but took a small break and have...

Now there's six of them! I call the spirit hosts done. Both the three new and the three I made last year. I hurried through painting them so only put a base paint on the tombstones, now all six have gotten two drybrush highlights also, they look better. Some have gotten a little brown paint...

Became 15 zombies in the end. A filler to represent 4 with a big orc and then 11 on 20mm bases. I felt that I had too many fillers in my 30 block so wanted more on 20mm bases. Pretty happy about them. Now I got a WoC and marauder for when I play my friend with WoC and one DE for games against my...

As I said I don't want to use the mausoleum kit so I don't think a new kit to go with the old would be what I'm looking for either. Have any of you built your own terrain/scenery pieces for your Vampire counts army?

I didn't say I was gonna paint did I? I said I would build more spirit hosts and zombies, right? This thing called prioritising might not be my favourite. I also started working on a corpse cart I've thought about for a year. Not sure where to go with it though. Guess I want a...

Thanks! Nice, I'm planning to play VC and Bret's. ;) Thank you. Archers I've planned to paint as peasants durin the 14th century. The men at arms probably the same, gambesons in many colours like seen in the Morgan bible. Knights I'll look at heraldry from the 14th century. Yes! I had those so...

After being silent for a few months I had a 1100 pts game against a friend who has built himself a DE army and for the first time I lost really bad. My necromancer started with an irresistible spell and blew most of his block in the air but survived. A few turns later the enemy wizard threw a...

I like the idea of having thematic terrain for my armies and want ideas for my vampire counts army. I have trees (firs and leaf) and some wheat fields made from door mats that works in most settings but want to bulk it up with something thematic I know about the Sigmarite Maosoleum but I don't...

Thanks for the nice words! Yes as you found they're rubber, so very easy to bend and make a hole through. I haven't painted these. I made and painted the base, the pins are paper clips. I made a hole through the body of the bat and then just put it on a paper clip. So I haven't glued them yet...

Latest two additions to the army, a vampire and a necromancer. The vampire is this warriors of the dead from GW LOTR range I started by carving of the arm to get the pauldron from a black knight and cut a sword arm by the elbow. I also sculpted a breastplate, I don't get the one he had that...

Thank you! Yes I like the older models much, so I've tried to get many of them. Here is a picture of all that is painted now. The Vargheists, Varghluf (vargskyr), hexwraiths, Vlad, Wight King, black ghouls and the cream skeletons are bought painted. So I have painted the spirit hosts, tan...
