The Citadel AD&D BDD01 series "Unarmoured Fighter" -- why they didn't refer to him as a Barbarian is unclear.

Citadel AD&D BDD01 Thief. Slowly making my way through the BDD01 set. Not the most exciting figure in the set, but progress nonetheless. ๐Ÿ˜…

"Hey, shut up for a second! Did you hear something?" Citadel ADD04 Thieves from when GW briefly held the license to produce AD&D miniatures for TSR. They are likely to be eaten.

Finally finished two other Citadel ADD69 Githyanki to go with the other. The one on the left was painted in 2004 (and rebased in 2025), the other two fully painted in October 2026. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ Not sure if I've actually got any better at NMM.

Right now my Rogue Trader Space Marine army consists of only three painted marines. Two more to complete the squad have been on painting blocks for an embarassingly long time. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ ๐Ÿ˜…

Citadel C29 Plague Elemental. Just a little something while I'm busy working on something else I'll be sharing soon! ๐Ÿ˜

Necromancer Heinrich Kimmler from the Citadel Vengeance of the Lichemaster scenario pack personally leads a group of C18 Zombies. #citadelminiatures #oldhammer #zombies

Inching ever closer to opening day: received the first metal miniatures from the casters, with more to come, but getting these packaged up now. Doing everything by hand! ๐Ÿ˜… Really pleased with how the packaging has come out, the old school 80s-90s feel is exactly what I wanted. ๐Ÿ˜

Citadel ADD78 Mind Flayers. Skin is ProAcryl Faded Ultramarine base, Contrast Ultramarine wash, mix of the two, then highlighted mix with ivory, and mix with GW Bloodshade. Not because I think there's demand for a good Illithid skin recipe, but so I'll know when I get around to the other six. ๐Ÿ˜…

Rogue Trader RT603 Ambull Bought this one new as a kid! It languished in poorly painted state (some cheap Krylon tan with a brown wash) until I stripped and repainted this past month. Opted for a classic style, tho I was tempted to make it match my tyranid scheme. #roguetrader #oldhammer

These remain my two fav pieces of John Blanche's art. John's art and Jes Goodwin's sculpts are the probably the two biggest factors that made me crazy for the old Citadel ADD series. Rest well, John.

Last worked on in Nov '24, got my Tom Meier Zombie Dragon finished finally! Had forgotten how much extra details I put into the base, so kept finding things I hadn't painted while it was WIP. ๐Ÿ˜… #oldhammer #citadelminiatures #zombie #dragon

I look back at minis I painted literally decades ago as "quick paint jobs for next week's D&D session" and feel like I've become a worse painter over the years. ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜‚

A fine Sunday spent zenithal priming. Lots of Citadel stuff: FS2 Altar & Sacrifice, FS31 Lion's Head Fountain, Fiend Factory Scorpion, C15 Orcs, C46 Villagers, C06 Dwarf, and C21 Goblin Wolfriders.

Didn't realize #selfpromosaturday was a thing, so here's something adjacent to self promotion: Quite lucky to be bringing back some of these popular miniatures back to life. Well, soon. Still have a lot to organize and do first...! ๐Ÿ‘€ necrotalesgames.com Hoping to open in June.

Apparently never posted this here before. Citadel Gothic Horror "Betty" is confronted by a Night Horrors "Man in Flames" on the streets. Not clear if she's reaching for spare change or a pistol. Random trivia: the Man in Flames was previously released as a solid base Runequest "Storm Demon."

I think the feeling of having some random AI bluesky bot spamming at someone with your handle is the same feeling as realizing you stepped in dog poo on the sidewalk. Blocked 'em, but ugh. ๐Ÿคข I don't want to be associated with that crap.

Finally making some progress on this project after a few years sitting "idol." Bought this direct from Otherworld Miniatures a couple years before they closed. Not the longest time I've gone on a WIP project between updates if I'm honest! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Well, it took freakin' forever, but finally got the floor to the Githyanki temple scene I've been slowly picking away at the past few months. Also some assorted scatter terrain with matching bases. #citadeladd #oldhammer #dungeonsanddragons #citadelminiatures

Busy lately, with work AND painting, but haven't had anything new to show off. So here's some #oldhammer plaguebearers I painted about four years ago that I never showed off here.

Samgaff the Halfling from the Citadel Terror of the Lichemaster scenario, originally from the C11 Halfling series and known as Dery Podgebelly. I love that he has a cowbell around his neck. #citadelminiatures #oldhammer

A Citadel Talisman Necromancer up to no good (but looking suave and dapper nonetheless). #citadelminiatures #oldhammer #talisman #warhammercommunity

Final project of 2025 was this squad of ten Rogue Trader Penal Legion Imperial Guardsmen. #roguetrader #citadel #imperialguard #warhammercommunity

Did you know that Citadel once made Stormtroopers as a test for a potential line of Star Wars minis? Converted this one to be a Sandtrooper (a little greenstuff on the shoulder and chest). Sadly, this one is almost certainly a recast, since it came from eBay. ๐Ÿ˜ญ #oldhammer #starwars #citadel

Rogue Trader Imperial Guard Command Rhino. I may have taken the weathering too far, but I was referencing a World War II winter camo tutorial by Night Shift. ๐Ÿ˜… #oldhammer #roguetrader #imperialguard

Final day of #guardvember A Rogue Trader era plastic Imperial Guardsman done as a test for the theme & scheme of the entire army force. I wanted something fast and simple, while still looking nice! I think I'll make 'em the Phyruss 7th, 8th and 13th regiments. #oldhammer #warhammercommunity

An #oldhammer Astropath leads a group of Rogue Trader Penitenant legion troops across an icy rocky terrain in an attempt to get back to the Imperial forces. #roguetrader #imperialguard

Slowly picking my way through the #citadelminiatures #oldhammer BC2 set. Only have the Ogre Champion and Warrior of Chaos left to finish.

"Well, this is another fine mess you've got us into, Riolta!" "Wait, who the hell are you, Dwarf? Have you been there this entire time?" Riolta Snow may be a fine shot with a bow, but she tends not to notice the people around her. #oldhammer #citadelminatures

Just 17 left to complete my Citadel AD&D series! Unfortunately they are mostly the hardest to find of the entire set... ๐Ÿ˜… #oldhammer #citadeladd bsky.app/profile/eark...

Kep@earkham.bsky.social

Now needing only 20 variants to complete the #citadelminiatures AD&D line. Yes, I even have the unreleased ones (well last horror head is otw in the mail). The open-mouthed Bard is likely going to be THE absolute most difficult and expensive to acquire, if I can even find it at all. #oldhammer

Remember that base I posted in November 2023? Finally got around to painting the beast that was intended for the top of it, a #citadelminiatures BDD10 Red Dragon. Literally JUST clearcoated it yesterday, it's already got dust flecks on it! ๐Ÿ˜… #citadeladd #paintingminiatures #dungeonsanddragons

Current progress on the reimagined watchtower from #oldhammer scenario pack Bloodbath at Orc's Drift. Foam and balsa construction, cardstock roof tiles. So far only primed and then airbrushed the base colour! Lots of brushwork yet to go. #wipwednesday #warhammerterrain #warhammer

Citadel miniatures FF71 Gnome Assassin (aka Fiend Folio Dark Creeper) is best on all sides by the pests of the Underdark (a pair of BDD02 Fire Beetles, a BDD02 Stirge, and a C34 Giant Bat). #oldhammer #citadelminiatures #miniaturepainting #citadeladd #dungeonsanddragons

An #otherworldminiatures Giant Frog lurks at the pond near an Alternative Armies Wayside Shrine in the hopes of catching an unwary traveler as a snack. Backdrop by Jon Hodgson #warhammerterrain #miniaturepainting #alternativearmies

Adventuring party consisting of #oldhammer era orcs, goblins and a gnoll. From the Citadel BC2 and BDD02 sets. #citadeladd #citadelminiatures #miniaturepainting

Haven't had time to work on the other terrain themes, so have a closer shot of the intrepid Citadel ADD adventurers atop their hill. #citadeladd #citadelminiatures #miniaturepainting

Two Citadel ADD series player characters fight against a small group of BC2 monsters. Was inspired by @jewelknightjess.com 's recent work on terrain for photos, so decided to do one for myself! Have plans for underdark and swamp pieces, too. #citadeladd #citadelminiatures #miniaturepainting
