Prince of the city - Tabletop game

I wanted to paint something less demanding than the last army I did for Age of Sigmar (my dwarven army - will post pictures soon), and so I got one of my older tabletop games out and painted the player minis included in it.

The game is "Prince of the City", made by "White Wolf" (http://www.white-wolf.com). It plays in the "World of darkness" setting that is an update to the former "Vampire: the Masquerade" setting made by White Wolf.
It is a cool game and very nicely styled. The one thing missing was a good paintjob on those minis. So I sat down and painted them. :-)

Anyway, after taking a few pictures of the minis I found out that the first image with the whole group standing in front of the camera was extremely blurry. I could not post that one and so the pictures start without a group-pic.

Now first for the Gangrel. He used to be the Deva (something akin to a Toreador) but I thought that Gangrel was way more fitting.

And now for the Mekhet. That one used to be the Gangrel but seems to be wearing the finest cloths of the bunch, so I made her into the seer kind of vampire:

And now the Nosferatu. That one I did not have to change. He really has those special Nosferatu looks.

Now for the Ventrue. This one I did not have to change either. She looks the type. :-)

And now for the new Deva. That one used to be the Mekhet but I thought that a guy who wears a belly-free shirt can only be the artistic kind of vampire. Thats why I gave him pink hair and beard.

Well, thats it for today. I will post some of my dwarfs soon. :-)

By the way, if anyone wants me to paint his stuff, just leave a comment.

Silver Tower 17 - Knight-Questor

And finally we come to the last figure of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" set made by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com), the Knight Questor.

To be perfectly frank I never liked the bulky space marine like look of the Stormcast Eternals. They just look a little bit to much like Dr Whos Cybermen.

Anyway, setting my differences aside, this mini here started to grow on me rapidly while painting. I thought that the "everything in gold" coloring scheme seemed rather bland and therefore I made him mostly silver with gold only as an secondary color for the metal pieces. Also I put a few ruby painted pieces in it and tada finally a not boring stormcast eternal. :-)

Silver Tower 16 - Tenebral Shard

Well we have come to Tenebral Shard out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" set made by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).
This is a cool looking model but at first it did not agree with my High Elf coloring scheme. It looked just boring. So I had to think something up that would give this guy a little more "hmpf" (you know what I mean) and finally descided that I would turn him into a crazed ripper like figure with blood all over.

Now I think he looks as dangerous as he should:

Silver Tower 15 - Mistweaver Saih

And here comes the Mistweaver Saih out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" set made by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).

This beautiful model was a pain to paint (thats why the difference is just one "t" I think). I had to paint so many pieces seperately that I was never really sure how well it would look in the end. Anyway as with the warpriest, I had to make sure that this elven mage would fit in with the rest of my high elf army and therefore I used a lot of gold, red and blond hair on this one.

Silver Tower 14 - Excelsior Warpriest & Gryph Hound

Here comes the Warpriest and his loyal Gryph Hound out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" set made by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).

Here I really went off the beaten path because I wanted to make sure that all these units are compatible with the Age of Sigmar armies I already have. A black warpriest just did not fit my Empire army and so I gave him a big beard, filed off part of his nose and turned him into a white guy. Now he fits the rest of my arms.

First I wasn´t sure if the beard would work. I do not have much experience with these kind of modifications, but hey in the end it looks as if the beard should have been there all along. :-)

Silver Tower 13 - Darkoath Chieftain

And now for the Darkoath Chieftain out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).

This guy has such an evil grin in his face that I just could not help myself - I just had to spatter blood all over him. Now he really looks the part. :-)

Silver Tower 12 - Fyreslayer Doomseeker

And so we now come to the heroe miniatures out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).
Fist the crazy looking, pantless (I gave him a little paint-on slipper for decency^^) Fyreslayer Doomseeker.
As these fire dwarfs are, surprisingly, assosiated with fire, I gave him more then just a red beard, but also rather reddish skin.

See for your selfs:

Silver Tower 11 - Chaos Familiars

Well as I have finished the whole "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" by "Games Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com) soon, here come the Chaos Familiars.
As there are four pairs of two identical familiars, the official coloring scheme suggests to paint the pairs with the same colors so they look completly alike.
I did not like this and therefore I made some effort to make them as different as much as I could.

Enjoy:

Silver Tower 7 - Ogre Thaumaturge

Here we come to one of the coolest models I have painted in a long time: The Ogre Mage (thats what I call him anyway^^) out of the "Silver Tower - Warhammer Quest" box made by "Games-Workshop" (www.games-workshop.com).

For this beast, I took a look at the official coloring scheme and descided that this did not look like the mutated Ogre I had in mind. I thought that this creature had formerly been an Ogre who had been corrupted by Tzeenth and thus had been given a more demon like look. So I gave him the skin color of my Ogre army and put a few "fey fire" touches on it.

Hope you like my version of the ogre mage. :-)
