Breaching the Faux - Works in Progress

What are you taking to Breaching the Faux? What have you got left to paint?



I'm thinking I might run Arcanists for Breaching the Faux this year; Fire and Ice. Got a fair bit of work left, but not as much as other factions.

The tournament tray I designed and had Dan cut on his fancy laser cutter: models on top with a drawer for tokens, cards, pens, whatevs. The tray fits in the Malifaux bag, replacing one foam tray.

My wishlist:
 

X-Roads 7 (all of em)

1 mature nephalim (to add to the 2nd)

waldgiests 2

beckoners 2

 

but more likely I won't get anything done and end up playing lilith... Honestly I really don't know why I keep buying new crews I always seem to end up with lilith.

 

Now I just gotta go over to the site and sign up...

If I somehow get freed up that weekend I'd bring Guild:

Francisco (done)

Brutal Emissary (primed)

Nino (primed)

Abuela (primed)

Also a lot to do but the odds of me making the tournament happen are slim.  Still I'll probably drop by and check it out and hopefully squeeze in a pick up game with you Mark-5!

Getting close to tabletop ready on everything (base, shade, 1-2 highlights)! Then I can go back and make it all fancier and stuff :)

 

Some samples. The bases need more love all across the board. Still not sure what color to make the 'rings' on the bases.

 

My WIP Lilith Conversion (hate the old collar and bob with bangs hairdo):

Lilith Conversion WIP

 
My WIP Pandora - box needs to made much more interesting:

Pandora WIP

 
My Lilitu WIP - the sheer effect is better in person. The whip needs redone:

Lilitu WIP

 
My OP Doppelbopper. Idea for connective tissues wasn't mine:

Doppelganger - Front

Doppelganger - Back

 
Juju, about half done. Need to make the "eyes" more sinister:

Bad Juju - WIP

 
My favorites dudes, the tree people! Need more contrast on the whole:

Waldgeist - the old one - WIP

Waldgeist - the dumb one - WIP

Waldgeist - the mean one - WIP

The colored stuffs are pretty cool. They are pretty good at hiding the joint and "non painted" area like the small edges. But those can be fixed pretty quickly with Sharpe' lining in much the same way that I did for my Pirates of the... CCG. 

 

More to come including pics as I get a few more pieces done.

I get the wish list... I currently have, Vickies, Bishop, couple of Ronin, desperate mercs, friekorps librarian, convict gunslinger, Lazerus, Vanessa, and a student of conflict ready to go. I'm working on Johanna, 3 void wretches, and the crossroads seven. Longterm more friekorps of all description...

Got some work in, not as much as I wanted... Johanna and two void wretches painted just waiting for basing and finishing.

 

Wrote the seven off based on complication of choices and time to paint...

Aren't the seven basically the least-choicey gang possible? You've only got two points to play with.

I'd be adding them to my choice of outcasts... I already have the Vickies. They would add allot of enforcer choice with the option to go full seven regardless of faction. And those two stones end up meaning allot of upgrade choice when it is impacted by faction declaration.

 

For me it was all or none didn't get enough games in to really care so focused on the couple of holes in my Vickies support choices and nixed painting the seven just for choices.

Hmm. I've been trying to figure what other models to add to my Vik crew once I get them, since nothing really stands out; I might try some of the Seven.

I have some decent choices, Lazerus, Bishop, Vanessa, friekorps librarian, Johanna (alt Johan), & some void wretches. Then of course you have the ubiquitous Ronin and some desperate mercs.

 

This should give me allot of tools... Void wretches are fast ish objective guys that can attack buried models (nothing is safe!), Librarian brings some healing but with Vanessa around I don't like it as much... Lazerus shoots well and Vanessa has some synergy there. Bishop is a freaking beast pit fighter always been my favorite and performs way better in second edition! Johanna will give me access to condition clearance which will help in certain match ups, if I can remember/know which ones...

 

So all in all as ready as I can be with a single game over the last year...

I like the Wretches and Librarian, those are definitely on my list; I feel less enthused about Vanessa, but I would have to give her a whirl to say for sure. How have the Mercs worked out for you? I haven't run them yet, but they seem kinda lackluster at a first glance- great if you can somehow trigger the plus flips to attack, but otherwise just a regular dork with nothing special going for them (and Wretches have way more utility.)

 

You'll be in good company in your inexperience, though, so don't worry too much there.
