Wolf with No Name is painted! He is a Scout class hero in Riot Quest and a Minion and Circle solo in Warmachine and Hordes.

I have seen a lot of people do really cool free hand painting on the cloth here... I'm not sure that I am up to that level of skill at the moment and at right now I'm focusing on finishing models, but I can always come back to him another day to try it.

He was a great model to practice shading within folds of cloth which I'm happy with how it turned out.

The hat reminds me a lot of crocodile Dundee which is pretty cool as an 80/90s kid I have fond memories of those films. 

Painting those eyes tucked underneath that hat certainly was a challenge... glad I did it though. 
His fur was fun to paint, as was the cigar in his mouth. Painting it to be lit with ash on the end was pretty neat.

Here is the scale shot with Professor Pendrake, for a skin walker Wolf is not very tall but then again he is very hunched over. 
Although he will work with my Minions army I mainly got him for Riot Quest. He was a fun model to paint and a good test for painting skinwalkers as I plan to convert up a couple of them for the IKRPG one day.

Model Review: The Four Horseymans

Today we take a look at The Four Horseymans, a Fighter class hero in Riot Quest and a Grymkin Solo in Warmachine & Hordes.

It comes in 7 parts, one of which is resin.

The resin part is the cloak for one of the gremlins, it is also the part which they all attach to when assembling the model.
The resin injection ports are at the bottom of the model and on a flat surface of cloth, both easy to trim off and file flat.

There is slight flashing on the mace head which is attached on one side of the cloak.

Here you can see the various attachment points for the gremlins and also the wheels for their "hobby horses"

This one is armed with a spear but seems to have the hat and horses head of Kraye the Cygnar warcaster. RIP Malagant...

It has a decent connection point on its back to attach it to the cape.

This one is based on Morvahna with her hat and goats head.

Pretty cool that one of the horns is snapped off, gives it a real feel of the unseen deaths of these characters before the Riot Quest timeline.

This gremlin doesn't have a peg attachment point, it just has a angled attachment. It actually attaches easily really.

This one is based on Reznik's second version on a chariot so presumably the horse is one of the ones that draw that.

The mask is really nicely detailed. Its going to be interesting to paint all these different factions colour schemes on a single model.

Slight flashing on the bottom of the reins, easy to remove.

Attachment point on the back of the gremlin.

Slight mould lines on the mane of the horse where a little difficult to remove I used a small rounded hobby file.

There is a little bit of flash on the sword here, easy enough to remove though. I found the attachment point of this arm to be really small and it kept falling off. It was too small to pin so what I did was glue the side of the sword to the head of the horse to have a second attachment point. 
Since I glued it this way it hasn't came off again.

This gremlin doesn't seem to have headgear which ties it to an old caster, but the horse is recognisable as Goreshade's 

Square hole on the back of the gremlin attaches to the resin cape.

This part was a bit tricky to attach to be honest, the best way I found was to attach the bottom of the stick the the gap between the wheels on the resin cape which will help line it up to attach the arm.

And here they are fully assembled! I would recommend attaching the gremlins in the following order to make it as easily as possible.
Far right - middle right - far left - middle left.
This was the way I found to make it as easy as possible. I did find that some of the parts like the foot of one of the gremlins is lower than the flat part of the resin cape which makes it tricky to glue to the base.
You can either bend the gremlins foot to fit or you can put some green stuff under the cape (this is what I did).

And here is the scale shot with Professor Pendrake

This is a really cool looking model, with barely any clean up the cast quality was really nice.
It is the hardest Riot Quest model to assemble to date, which might be a struggle for the less experienced in the hobby - board gamers picking it up.

J.A.I.M.s is painted! She is the first "Convergence" themed model I've painted so was a bit of a test for a theme/colour palette. I picked the P3 colour Orgoth Bronze which has quickly become my favourite metallic paint. I like how it doesn't clump once its been on the palette for a while and waters back to a coating consistency nicely.

I painted the internal workings like the cogs and gears and such silver to break up the model a little. As well as glowing blue "powered" sections where they seemed appropriate. 

She was a fun and also quick model to paint which makes a change for me! As a slower painter it was nice to get an "easy" win!

Here is a scale shot with Professor Pendrake, J.A.I.M.s is huge!!! Certainly an imposing figure, I've been enjoying using her to keep my crew safe and alive longer in Riot Quest, but I also hope to use her as an IKRPG encounter one day as well!
