I've made some progress. Now some might look at this progress, look at the date of this post and the date of the starting point, and then challenge my use of the term obsession. About as obsessed a drug dealer with his tax return, you might suggest. Or as obsessed as an eight year old with a spinach smoothie.
Okay.
You got me there.
But still. They're painted miniatures. Unfortunately, I was unable to stage my existing goblin force with these ones, but that'll come someday. Perhaps when I've finished some more goblins.
Just look at the pictures already:

Lovely little force. The eclectic-looking trolls are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteHey Gaj, they all look wonderful! Love the Trolls and spinach smoothies!
ReplyDeleteLoving the lead belcher, good green skins Gaj.
ReplyDeleteA tidy little force! I mean you know....for greenskins that is. Looking forward to the group shot!
ReplyDeleteThey look great! Vibrant colors!
ReplyDeleteGreat minis Gaj, thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteExcellent, excellent, excellent! You're paintings really coming on, isn't it? Your use of varied, and vibrant, colour really brings these great models to life. A force to be envious of, indeed.
ReplyDeleteReally great work, makes me long for the good old days again!
ReplyDeleteWhat I like about these particular Trolls is their habit of attacking their own men/goblin brothers and leaving my troops alone.....Garth as I said before, these are great miniatures and well painted to.
ReplyDeleteGreat work! I agree with Orlygg, your painting skills are improving.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to the other three crew members of the lead belcher?
Thought it looked a bit short-handed!
ReplyDeleteGreat work - really like the trolls in particular.
Looking forward to following the roller coaster ride of your Goblin obsession further! ;)
Looking great, love me them trolls.
ReplyDeleteThanks chaps - it looks like the whole inking thing is the right way to go after all. As regards the lead belcher, this is all of it that I have. Having looked at the thing up on Stuff of Legends, I see that I'm missing some spikes on the front (I know abou the wheel spikes, I chose not to put those) and the other three crew members!
ReplyDeleteI've tracked the various crew on eBay, but I've always had other more important things to get. I don't think the crews are that rare.
I suppose this is the official Warhammer Armies version - a 3 crew 4 barrel organ gun...
Gobz are so much fun ... I paint them in different colors to keep der unitz seperate .. . I have red, green, orange and yello gobz
ReplyDeleteGreat set of goblins.
ReplyDeleteLove the trolls and lead belcher too. I like the choice of red for one of the trolls, understated and unusual.
Always good to see old style painted goblins :)
I think you may have another one or two of the crew men in your unit of gobbos. I have a few spare crew knocking about, when and if I find them in my goblin mountain they are yours, can't guarantee a full set and I have no spare spikes.
ReplyDeleteGiven how glacially slowly I do things I may have found them by the time of the oldhammer weekender.
These have all the elements just, just right. Really wonderful craftsmanship and attention to detail. The figures themselves are some of my favorites.
