Weirdly not frozen, just refrigerated which didn’t increase their appeal to me

Rustlers are a kind of microwave burger you can get in the uk. Well I think you toast the buns but mostly microwaved.

Konflikt 47: Some beat up whitewashed Brit bots. They’re the start of a winter force defending their positions on the Rhine. A good chunk of the army are going to be engineering teams who’s whole in lore job is to burn bodies to prevent more totencore.
5 robots armed with 50 cal machine guns. Painted as if they were initially painted green and then have had a white wash applied to them. 5 robots armed with 50 cal machine guns. Painted as if they were initially painted green and then have had a white wash applied to them.

It can really feel like a chore painting gw minis sometimes. An 18th purity seal of a different kind just doesn’t add to a mini. It’s why I like the heresy kits so much.

Why not ask Queen of the Scrungaloids @opensketchbook.bsky.social ?

Your fallout project got me to purchase one of those sprues because of the potential to do something similar. Maybe one I’ve got through my fantasy itch….

Using the firefly’s as vault dwellers are such a great idea. They work so well.

Presently you do need the Barrons war book to play Warhost. However to me the Barrons war minis don’t quite hit that dark ages theme for me.

I can’t recommend the elves enough either, very fun to paint. And the dwarves look like they’re going to be great too!

Phil @walrusslapper.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
That kind of “dark ages” fantasy is my preference too. I like it a lot more than the more later medieval high fantasy kind of stuff that is common.

The minis by @hicksy.bsky.social are fantastic too

Phil @walrusslapper.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
If you want a more fantasy kind of thing then the Barons War spin-off Warhost may be your cup of tea.

I love the basing on these! Really sells the effect that they're coming out of a forest!

#oathmark test minis Spearmen and linebreakers made using Victrix late Romans and Huscarls respectively. These were really fun and a quick job which is good considering oathmark is a rank and file affair. The plan for these guys is a human Age of Sigmar army uniting the human tribes.
Four soldiers armed with spears and shields. Painted mainly in more drab colours, though the shields are painted in cream and red. Four soldiers wearing chainmail and helmets armed with two handed axes.

I wouldn’t be surprised (and would be delighted) if they had a scouring add on for heresy including mk7 and the other lost stuff from 40k.

Elf heads and shields? It looks cool

If you see this, post your rider(s).... Some WIP pistoleers for my empire army made with @wargamesatlantic.bsky.social renaissance heavy cavalry. Still more work to go but really happy with how they look so far!

I hope so, I like their dark agesish fantasy setting a lot

Phil @walrusslapper.bsky.social · 12/08/2026
Because I was searching for some earlier centaurs armed with spears and or bows in 28mm. I think it would be fun to do a wood elf style army for Oathmark.

Love the chequed patterns on the armour

They charged a lot for the fallout game too. I was really interested in both and I can’t say I am anymore looking at the price.

More beautiful Warhost minis, this time some sinister looking elves. I used cooler tones so they contrast the other Warhost minis in my collection and the basing, I want them to look apart from the world they abandoned. I’m keen to do more elves but it appears that dwarves are on the horizon!
Three elves wearing blue and cream robes, grey cloaks, gold armour and dark silver face masks.

I do really like the wga knights but for some reason the lack of surcoat is more sinister looking

Phil @walrusslapper.bsky.social · 20/05/2026
I’ve been eyeballing those victrix knights for some evil humans for oathmark for a week now. I like that they don’t all have surcoats, makes them feel more evil for some reason.

Last of my Warhost orcs for the moment, again really fun unit to paint, really enjoyed the flayed face on the orc with the skull mace’s front.
5 orcs, 4 wearing armour 1 wearing an orangey robe. 1 holding a large two handed mace, 1 with a banner pole bearing a maroon flag with 3 white mountains on it, 1 with a horn with a human head mounted on it, a shaman pointing a wand and the last holding two hand weapons. The back of the orcs previously described

The war dogs from Footsore are not mutts but may be of interest, note that they are true 28mm so scaled pretty small compared to GW and the like
8 irish wolfhounds bounding painted in pale greys

Everything done on the orcs now, just some basing and then all done!

Maybe consider something from Warhost? They have a lot of cool elves and orcs right now and even have a guide on making men using wga plastics! Pictures of my own minis and some taken from their website. warhost.online/blogs/articl...
Orc wearing a coat of maile with a circular chest plate and helmet holding a sword that could be best described as a long clever aloft.

Most of the unit are at this point now, plenty more to go but enjoying the process!
More orcs armed with heavy two handed weapons and heavier armour (maile or plate) wearing clothing mainly consisting of earthy colours and some brighter colours.

Fun painting session today painting more orcs by the ever talented @hicksy.bsky.social
Orc holding a large two handed mace armoured in rusted scale mail and a helmet. Wearing green leggings, a mustard yellow tunic and a sickly red torso cover. Another orc armed with a large mace this time armoured with rusted chainmail with plates of armour and a helmet. Orange leggings and a blue grey tunic. An orc armed with another two handed mace armed in maile with metal plates attached. Wearing only a blue grey tunic, he must have lost his trousers…

I’ve been really enjoying the range of muted greens, browns, yellows and khakis from these historical sets for my pseudo historicals like Warhost. More premixed ones on the horizon is always good news!
Human warriors armed with spears and round shields painted in an assortment of drab greens, browns, yellows and khakis. With some blues and reds included too.

You’re more than welcome to! Beware the scarf things on the Romans make it a pig to put the Barons war heads on them so it may be better to trim them.

Warhost When the men of Velgard march to war they do so wearing light mail shirts armed with a variety of weapons. This unit accompanies a local captain (the guy with the green shirt) so have been armed with falchions instead of the more typical spears or axes.

For heresy I’d love mk4 armour and bikes. Ideally a mk4 armoured riding pose that is interchangeable with the mk6 armoured riding pose.
