So with Day 291, I premiered the first of what I am calling Bow Gobbo 2.0, a much more dynamically posed night goblin archer, heavily based on the new Avatars of War Goblin Archer kit (see bottom for more info) I took 8 different Adamant Arsenal lower robe pieces, and then chopped the feat off...

The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 40
So last week I talked about how I chose weapons and hands for the kitbashes. Today we are going to talk about the heads. Avatars of War, Titanforge, Beholder Minatures and Battle Yak's Cankergits are where most of the heads came from. Each of the heads is going to be a base head from one... Continue Reading →
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 39
I realized I never really talked about all these weapons that I have been kitbashing into the models. Before I move to the weapons, let me first talk about hands. One of the first things I did when planning this project, was decide I would need a consistent style of hands. I looked at all... Continue Reading →
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 38
Back in Week 32 we had our first Night Goblin Fanatic. I have decided these are what I need to finish up (along with the spider riders). So I got a 2nd one started. A little Titanic dancing inspired. More to come soon. Our Greenskin STL of the week is Eskice Minature's Les Gobelins Fanatiques.... Continue Reading →
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 37
Ok, something a little different this time for the weekly update, I'm going to ask you all what you think the next project should be. I want it to be something futuristic, so we have several 40k options and a curveball. Vote and let me know what you would like to see. It won't be... Continue Reading →
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 36
I had mentioned that besides more spider riding gobbos, I wanted to add some spacers. I love the idea of spacers, little mini scenes that can be placed in the middle of a unit, and some games embrace them more than others. Avatars of War includes victims in their Goblin Spider Rider kit, so I... Continue Reading →
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 35
Felt like doing something a little more creative for the Friday roundup, so started working on one of the bigger bosses. He is called the Ratcatcher, and the whisper of his name makes Skaven everywhere release the musk of fear. He will fight any of the tribes enemies, but has a burning hatred for Skaven....

The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 34
Onward with another spider rider, this is the 9th. Previous examples from Week 9, Week 27, Week 28 and Week 33. Our Greenskin STL of the week is Txarli Factory's Goblin Camp. While they focus on terrain, they also have some awesome miniatures (check out their ogres)
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 33
Time to stop dabbling with 1 or 2 of a unit and then moving on. Instead going to make a effort to finish up things. First up, the rest of the spider riders. This is the 8th one, with another 2 started, and some ideas for the unit fillers bouncing around. Previous examples from Week... Continue Reading →
The Great Year Of Greenskins, Weekly Update-Week 32
I really want to get some good fanatics done. My early efforts were mid to say the least. So I am going to spend some time on efforts to give them more flair. This is the first (but by no means complete) sample to show, where I added bells on his hood, copious amounts of... Continue Reading →
