Malifaux: Outcast, Steam Punk Abomination 4

Here is the last of the SPA skulpts. Perhaps my least favorite. I'm just not seeing the bandsaw head being much of a threat on the table. That may just be me though.

Malifaux: Outcast, Steam Punk Abomination 3

My second favorite SPA. The head alone is just great. It really brings out the twisted version of Necromancy that Leveticus uses.

Malifaux: Outcast, Steam Punk Abomination 2

Here is the second SPA. One of my favorite of the castings. Although not as low as he should be the details on this model are awsome. Between the stitching and the metal hand I just love him.

Malifaux: Outcast, Steam Punk Abomination 1

Here is the first of the Steam Punk Abominations, SPA from here on out. I thought this guy was especially good for a cast as he actually is a Height 1 model as their rules state. I think the others should have been in a lower stand or position, maybe scuttling acrost the ground rather than being so upright. I think the use of gloss onthe brain/gore really helped to make those elements shine, pun intended and all. I love the SPA models and am looking to pick up a second set. Not sure how I will make them diffrent from this set. Not to much clothing to work with.

Malifaux: Resurectionist, Bette Noir

A really simple cast in my mind for Bette. Not all that much detail to draw out on her. And really no need for it. She is a spectral ghostly serial killing crazy and thus she should be. I kept her clothing dark to really draw atttention to the white skin. Allowing her to seem even more etherial in the dark. Although I liked teh way the eyes and lips worked out I am a little worried the lips withthe white face give to much of a DC's Joker look to her, still even if it does that isn't all bad. Still gives off teh whole creepy vibe well.

Malifaux: Outcast, Rusty Alice

Finished this up some time ago but as many of you know summer seems to be the bane of getting much gaming


done in a normal time frame. With that in mind I'll be putting the pictures up but with a bit less comments to try and get this blog out from the old fade.

Rusty we a pretty good model to paint overall. Her face was difficult due to the hair and clothing providing cover for about half her face while attempting to get a brush down on her. Still It worked out fine. I wish I was better at free hand I wanted to do somethign akin to plaid on her skirt but I didn't trust myself to screw it up. Plus I was on a time constraint to get her done for a local Malifaux league. I think the additional brass coloring for he metalic elements helped to give her that extra old world steam punky look rather than a more cyber punk aspect.

Malifaux: Outcast, Leveticus

Finally a model that came out more akin to what I was hoping for. Painting Leveticus was a dream. He just came together so well for me. I really loved the whole process just about from start to finish. It felt like I was painting like my old self again. That alone was good, but beyond that I really didn’t need to repaint any particular feature, they just seemed to come together for me this time.

Always a joy to paint when that happens. I really liked how his face finished out. That doesn’t show to well in the pictures here. I may have to add in a face shot for him later. He has yellow eyes that with the black pupils I painted really gave him an old and somewhat diseased cast to his face on the table. I’ll be finishing him up with gloss on the orb of his cane as well as the sewer sludge. I think that will make the orb come out a bit better and seem more of the polished jewel it is supposed to be rather than the green glob it is right now.
