McFarlane Toys Fortnite Ragnarok Figure Review

Image
I came across two more Fortnite toys I liked so I figured I'd do some more photography. I don't know anything about the character so here is what the wiki says: "Ragnarok is a Legendary Outfit in Fortnite: Battle Royale that can be unlocked by reaching Tier 100 in the Season 5 Battle Pass. He is also a character in Chapter 2: Season 5 that was added into update v15.00. Ragnarok first appeared in Season 5, having been pulled from his own viking reality, along with his Viking Village. He appeared once again in Chapter 2: Season 5, appearing at the Superstore next to Holly Hedges. (Formerly Hey Boo! Megastore), now turned into Viking Vessel." Here he is in his shiny new packaging. McFlarlane continues with the nice box art. Here is the contents of the package. I like the way the pick looks, but the shotgun is kinda lacking. The cape attaches by a slot in his back. For some reason his knobby elbows keep catching my eyes. And now for the action shots. Ov...

Iana and Shamrock say hello

I wanted to test a tip I heard about using a printed picture as a backdrop so I grabbed two of my wife's figures. We have Iana on the left and Shamrock on the right. They are made by the Daibadi Production. (Amazon affiliate links) Shamrock can be found Here Iana can be found Here

TIE Fighter at the duck park

Image
It's been a while since I picked up the camera and took some photos of toys so when I saw a new TIE fighter from Hotwheels come in at work I had the urge to break out the camera and give it another shot. Pun intended. I didn't really have any decent backdrops to use so I dedided to run an idea by my gaming group and we all took a trip to the nearby duck park. This is the only decent photo of the fighter that I got from the trip. I'll have to look into getting some wires or something to hold up the models so I don't need to keep the very noticable bases in the shot. And now for the best part The Duckies! On our way back to the park entrance we came across some fishies and I managed to grab a shot before they scattered. If you want your own Tie fighter, it can be found here (amazon affiliate link)

Meet The Survivors of Kingdom Death

Image
My group has been focusing a lot on Kingdom Death over the past few weeks so almost all progress on my other projects has come to a screeching halt. Hobbying is still being done so there is that at least. For those who haven't heard of it, Kingdom Death in a nutshell is a board game where you build a settlement and fight monsters. The summary from the Kingdom Death wiki describes it as follows: "Kingdom Death: Monster is a strategy board game designed to be played by four players. In Kingdom Death: Monster, players take on the role of adventurers who barely survive an attack by a monstrous lion. Forming a settlement nearby, they celebrate this victory with a yearly lantern festival followed by a ceremonial hunt against another monster. The game is a story-driven campaign that takes place over approximately 30 of these "lantern years". Most lantern years are divided into three phases: the hunt, the showdown, and the settlement phase. As a complete game is esti...

The Nightmare Before Krampus Day Pt4

Image
So after much procrastination and waiting for things to come in the mail I have finally finished the Witches And Woes crew. I used the Secret Weapon Miniatures Field of Screams Bases (which can be found here ) for all of the crew because I thought the jackolanterns fit quite well with the flaming pumpkin headed sorrows. So now without further ado, I present to you the crew. Sorrows A, B, and C. Next up we have the Poltergeist. The ever loveable Baby Kade. The sweet and sour youth, Candy. And lastly the bringer of misfortune herself, Pandora. This crew was a little challenging to paint at times, but overall I enjoyed painting them. My wife started doing the base coats on a few models and I took over everything else as well as the detail work. Lets just hope that New Model Syndrome doesnt stirke when they play their first match against the Rasputina crew.

The Nightmare Before Krampus Day Pt2

Image
After much delay we were able to finally finish the core of the nightmare Rasputina crew. Below you can see the alternate Ice Gamin (or as we refer to them the Derpy Gamin) Next up you have the Beast-in-a-box (alternate wendigo) and the alternate Rasputina Lastly you have Krampus (alternate Snow Storm) and Festivus Aborus (alternate Ice Golem) And here we have the group all together. As with the last batch my wife did the painting on everyone and I just did the basing.

The Nightmare Before Krampus Day Pt1

Image
My wife and I are working on two seasonal crews for a special game of Malifux. One player will be playing the nightmare Pandora crew and the other will be playing the nightmare Rasputina crew. In this battle the holidays of Spookmas and Krampus Day are going head to head to see which is the best holiday once and for all. Below you have the Festivus Aborus on the left (alternate Ice Golem) and the Beast In A Box on the right (alternate Wendigo). Both were painted by my wife, I just did the basing.

Menite Archon

Image
One of our gaming buddies got my wife this guy for her birthday. It was her first attempt at painting flames and she's pretty happy with how it came out. She did everything from cliping & cleaning to the painting. All I did was drybrush the flames a bit and glue sand to the base.

3D Print Gengar

Image
This little guy consists of a Gengar and a base that were both printed from a resin printer. I tried three times to get a good print of this sculpt and the first ended up missing the front half of it's body. Even this one is missing his toes, but we called it good enough. The base printed just fine on the first attempt though. Good lord 3D printing resin is a headache. My wife painted both pieces.

Witchwood

Image
A Witchwood model my wife painted shortly after the Grymkin came out. This is the first time we tried adding vines to a model. I think they came out fairly nicely.

Ogor Mawpot

My wife recently finished the Great Mawpot for the Ogor Mawtribes. It was gifted to her by our girlfiend and turned out to be quite a time consuming project.
