Fynrydhad Tractor

 So, the Fynrydhad Tractor is now painted (the driver is still to be painted).

The model was inverted and undercoated with Citadel Chaos Black.

It was then set right side up and sprayed with Army Painter Chaos Red.

This definitely appears to be a different colour to the acrylic paint.

The head lamp was painted wit Army Painter Stone Golem.

The track and the exhaust was painted with a mix of Vallejo Burnt Cadmium Red, Vallejo London Grey and Vallejo Black Grey.

The end of the exhaust was painted with a lighter shade by adding Army Painter Stone Golem.

The rail was painted with Vallejo Black Grey topped with Vallejo London Grey.

The track and exhaust were dry brushed with Citadel Ryza Rust. The exhaust was washed with Citadel Nuln Oil. The tracks were washed with Citdel Agrax Earthshade.

The turret can be traversed.

Quar Fidwogs

 The latest plastic release for This Quar's War is the diminutive Quar of Fidwog, together with two Fynrydhad light Tractors.

The box contains two identical sprues. Each sprue has six infantry and one Fynrydhad Tractor complete with the crewman (a half figure).

There are Skeytch semi automatic rifles and a Bensa Support Rifle.

The first assembled Fynrydhad tractor.

Moulding limitations are apparent on the rivets on the side plate, and there is a mould line  on the plate behid it.

Comparison with a real world tankette/carrier - the Carden-Loyd Carrier. This is the Empress model.

You can definitely see the inspiration.

Forest Goblin

Way back in 2022 I bought Five Leagues From The Borderlands, a solo or cooperative wargaming campaign system.

One of the foe types are the Fae, and the lowest form are the goblins.

As the Oathmark Goblins in general (and how I imagine them) does not match up with how they are described in Five Leagues, I looked around for some suitable figures.

Though I have had very bad experiences with Shieldwolf figures, I decided I would give them one more chance.

 This is the first painted one.

Undercoated with Citadel Chaos Black followed by Citadel Snot Womble Green.

Headdress and skirt is Citadel Death World Forest shaded with MIG Black Green. The strapping and belt is also MIG Black Green.

The mask, shoes, armour and forearm guards are Citadel Dryad Bark, followed by Citadel Catachan Flesh with a highlight of Mournfang Brown.

Eyes and mouth are Citadel Mephiston Red, teeth and fang necklace are Citadel Morghast Bone. 

The box contains five sprues. two command sprues and three standard sprues.

Standard Sprue

Command Sprue.

The supplied bases are a little odd, blind, shallower than Games Workshop type and with a mounting point for a magnet. I have standardised on Renedra round bases so they have been set aside.

The starter scenario pits your intrepid adventurers against five opponents, five with sword and shield, one with a bow, so the initial build was five figures.

Here is one of them with a North Star Frostgrave Soldier and a Fireforge Almughavar.

They are all undercoated with Citadel Snotwomble Green, thogh there is a temptaion to paint some with a yellow skin tone (and a banana fascination).

Quar: Crusader Officer

 At Salute I bought the six blister packs of resin Quar figures. This included the Crusader Officers.

He is armed with a Grifkis double barrelled shotgun and a hand axe.

The figure was undercoated with Citadel Chaos Black, followed by Citadel SnotWomble Green.
The skin was painted with Citadel Averland Sunset.

The Grifkis shotgun and the helmet are Vallejo Black Grey, as is the belt buckle, first coat on the buttons, the canister and the webbing fittings.

The trousers are Citadel Steel Legion Drab as are the pouches.

The boots are Citadel Dryad Bark.

The wood stock on the shotgun and the handle of the axe are Citadel Catachan Flesh.

The shotgun cartridge bodies are Citadel Mechrite Red and the bases, buttons and the Crusader "Flying Squirrel" logo are Army Painter Stone Golem.

The belt and helmet strap is Citadel Mornfang Brown.
