A bit of Bob

Off work with a twenty-four hour gift from Papa Nurgle, I've taken a few moments to put the finishing touches to an unusual Bob Olley beastman. No, not the one with willy-horns (what had Bob been smoking that day?), but one with a bit of a surf'n'turf approach - a mix of predator (claws) and prey (sheep face, a hoof) - that I've not seen on any other figure from the period. [Yes, chaps, that is a challenge]

After an FB chat in the Oldhammer group about painting yellow which I blithely contributed to, it also seemed a good opportunity to put my brushes where my mouth was (or something), and act as a bit of an homage to that archetypal Tzeentch warband by Dale Hurst shown in WD135 with its vibrant yellows:

Fabulous - and I might just nick that shield design if I can't get anywhere with Orlygg's article...

Not anywhere near the same standard, but enjoying the ride as I try, here's the start of my "yellow" phase:

Hoofclaw - look at that typical Bob Olley face!

And now there are four - Bruchvir's warband is growing, ready to serve Tzeentch with sword and spell. Just one more beast to paint to get my starting crew finished as rolled up. I hope I'll also get the Lord of Change that is bound in Bruchvir's sword painted by our planned gaming day (9 days to go...).

Ready, Chris?

I hope that if you, dear reader, are also feeling grotty, then you are still able to wield a brush,
