I have a Fimir whose axe broke off, so I did a weapon swap and now my nephew Michael will have a Barbarian with a battle axe. And that Fimir will now get a magic wand and He will be the rust casting Fimir in an upcoming quest.

It's a natural occurrence for the barb to have a battle axe. Insomnia and just stumbled across Kefka while browsing perler 8bits. So wish my wife would make me this. FF3 (International FF6) is my favorite childhood videogame...

I look at that and can't grasp someone would have the patience...
I guess this is how non-miniature people feel when they look at painted minis...

And KK, those Chaos Warriors look really good. I never liked that kit much, but you have convinced me it was due to GWs boring paintjob. |_P

I hope you refer to these: http://forum.yeoldeinn.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1972&start=110

Thanks. I was pondering quite some time over using them or expensively picking Confrontation minis and others for the different kinds of HQ Chaos Warriors.
Then I had this idea and went with it. Maybe I'll replace them someday with more beautiful minis.

I agree that these are underused by GW for showing off effects. Especially with their paintjobs nowadays which are taking a few steps back in the hobby by basically consisting of basecoat, one shade, and edging for a highlight, which is frankly very very boring, especially with these people specializing in 40k and these huge panels of hard material boredom.

If it's something you like doing then even it if takes a long time you're enjoying it.

Spell casting Fimir for the upcoming quest.

The wand is a bit from the warhammer 6th edition command sprue.

I was a little nervous that I would end up drilling through the fimirs hand, my hobby tools are packed since I am moving in two weeks, I ended up using a loose drill bit.

the Fimir and the Barbarian will get a coat of primer later on today.
