Nurse Heartsbane

The Nurse Heartsbane is a Guild Mercenary model in the 2 player starter box. The model is really good for positioning other models but can cause really good damage as well.

These models are made to be easily put together as some beginner modellers have complained of the complexity of Malifaux plastics. I don't mind complexity when they come with so much details and action poses.
 Started primed white. Green outfit was painted with Gnarls Green, drybrushed with Ordic Olive and lightly drybrushed with Wurm Green. All metal parts were painted with Pig Iron and drybrushed with Quicksilver. Mask was painted with Exile Blue, drybrushed with Cygnar Base Blue and lightly drybrushed with a 50/50 mix of Menoth White Highlight and Cygnar Base Blue. Skin was painted with Khardic Flesh, drybrushed with Midlund Flesh and finally lightly drybrushed with Ryn Flesh. Hair was painted with Thamar Black then drybrushed with Coal Black. Shoes painted with Bloodtracker Brown and drybrushed with Rucksack Tan.
The whole model was washed with Agrax Earthshade. The base is made from the Basius2 Dungeon plate. It was painted with varying shades of grey.

GW Dreadstone Blight

Here is the Games Workshop Dreadstone Blight, no longer in production, that I thought would make great terrain for other games I play. I used dollarstore paints and basic drybrushing and mixing techniques.

GW Chapel

I purchased the GW Chapel, which is no longer in production, because its scale is compatible with Malifaux and Warmachine. It turned out quite well and has lots of add-ons and do-dads that will look good on future plasticard scenery.

I painted the entire model with dollarstore paints using basic drybrushing and mixing techniques.

Nothing Beast

The Nothing Beast is a brutal melee enforcer that works well with Tara and the Void Wretches (of course). It is also incorperal and has a defense that allows it to counter-attack blows. This model is the nightmare version but the regular two armed version is still available from Wyrd in the Herald of Oblivion crew box.

Started primed white, painted everything Exile Blue, drybrushed with Trollblood Blue vigorously, drybrushed with Underbelly Blue normally and drybrushed lightly with Frostbite.
I then painted the eyes with Thamar Black and then a drop of Arcane Blue in each of their six eyes. I then drybrushed their teeth with Menoth White Highlight.


The base was done with Basius 2 Plaguelands, painted with dollarstore black, heavily drybrushed with Umbral Umber, drybrushed with Bloodstone and lightly drybrushed with Rucksack Tan.
