Category Archives: Northern War Host

This is a work in process.  It’s one of the German mercenaries from Mark Copplestone’s Back of Beyond collection.  I still need to add some details to the model, clean a few things up, and finish the base.  This is my first attempt at using the “new” round bases (the Warmachine ones with a small basin in the center) for my models, and unfortunately I overloaded it with sand.   I hope I don’t make this mistake again.

This is the first goblin I finished for my northern war host, one of my major projects for this year.  It’s a prototype, so it took me a while to finish.  There are several things that did not turn out the way I had hoped, but I learned a number of things along the way.  I especially don’t like the dark tin/copper color of the armor plates, and will try brass for future models.  Hopefully I will get better results with my next attempt.

This is an old Grenadier model available through Mirliton in Italy, by the way.
