Oldhammer - Skrag, the ogres and some halflings

Skrag the slaughterer is the last Jes Goodwin ogre I completed in 2013. He is almost all armour and didn't take long to finish. I used GW's new corrosion pain in the armour recesses. I think it turned out alright, I would probably do it again. The Secret Weapon blue black ink was used for the stubble. I was very hapy with the result. Finally I contemplated using the new GW blood paint on the axe but wimped out and left the slaughterer blood free. I sure he and his patron god Malal are displeased. One of these days I will have the courage to really bloody up a model.
Old sculpt Skrag is so much better than his current GW incarnation.

Group shot of the Jes Goodwin Ogres. I will buy 1 or 2 more in 2014 to round out the unit.
I painted these Perry Halflings to see if I had improved. I'd knocked out 16 last year. Sadly my painting is neater but not that much better when it comes to halflings.

    More excellent brush-work. I never tire of seeing painted versions of Skrag! I have the second Ogre from right and intend to get him painted up over the next month.

    Cheers, look forward to seeing what you come up with when painting what I think is called the 'Ogre Beserker' or maybe it was 'Ogre Mutant'? Either way he's a good sculpt, lots of flesh.

    Love your work mate, would have added some red to the scar on his head and you should have bloodied the axe, I mean what's the point of carrying around an unbloodied axe? :P

    Those are lovely - ogres and halflings alike!

    A man after my own heart! I love seeing these old Ogre models painted up, and even moreso when they're done to this high standard!
