[5th] The epic 2016 Yeoldeinn Christmas exchange

[StratosVX]

interesting looking orc! at the risk of summoning the painter and give away his ID, what's the pattern on sword supposed to be? just curious, I can't think of something applicable myself.

Candy cane. Christmas theme (at least in the US).

The minis are looking great. Can't wait to see the rest!

Loving the Orc!

Oh yeah, my bad. I'm not too familiar with those. At first I thought it was Geofonos' figure, and he painted the sword red-white because he's a major Olympiacos fan (football club in Greece), but then I noticed it was pink instead of red and I thought it couldn't have been Geofonos, he's not gay, he is the straightest man I know.

Anyway, we've got a lot of orcs this year as well, understandably as it's the most common figure of the set.

Haha, you're a funny guy tasoe! No, its not mine, although I dig the whole red and white stripes on the sword (Go Olympiacos!). Mine is sort of a frankenstein if a hint is allowed. Also, I have already said that its more like a project rather than a mini. Hope the recepient appreciates it.

I'm pretty sure whoever painted the sword (and I'm pretty certain of who it was) is not gay based on the color choice.
Myself, I gave the cheeks and sunburn of a '44 Luftwaffe 1:72 scale miniature (being painted for a male friend) a pink glaze just today.
Gayest thing I've ever done...

I feel strangely confused now like back when I dreamily looked out of the window years ago and the neighbor's cat waved his tail at me in a suggestive manner (joke stolen from Naked Ninja).
Also, I like Milo Yiannopoulos. As gay as they get, that boy.
Oh, and Blaire White. Love her. Not gay, of course. There's only two genders, get over it.

Looks to be a candy-cane sword, you mesmerize your opponent by making them lick it and then you strike.

[Jackyboy]

It has got to be candy cain! Tis the season! I have them hanging off of my tree! Indeed you should give the Orc a special festive ability 'all heroes are drawn to the candy cain; no other monsters may be targetted in the same room until the Candy Cain Orc has been killed'

This fantastic pair of minis was waiting for me yesterday when I got home! I waited for natural light and threw a TC door in to set the tone.

I really like the painting on this Chaos Warrior. I'm a fan of painting a couple minis to exactly match the Monster Cards and I had not tried the Chaos warrior yet. In fact I have not painted any of the original Chaos Warriors (I have 4 GW Chaos Warriors). I'm sold on the red armor of Korne!

The goblin archer is a bonus OldHammer model not painted by the sender. I love it, fits in perfectly with the HQ goblins.

Proudly frowning at you from a camouflaging background of German Field Grey,
behold Conan den Barbaren vor seiner größten Schlacht!
Masterfully painted by MOPHUS...

[Geofonos]

Great looking Chaos Warrior! Loving the Khrone colors.
The camo barbarian is GORGEOUS! I'm so envious! The painting looks outstanding, at least to my untrained eye.
Pretty sweet miniatures this year if you ask me.
Keep 'em coming!
