Catacombs of Terror

 

I have set up several plates to print off the expanded Skaven Monster Encounter list. They are not printed yet, so I figured I paint up the Catacombs of Terror expansion I printed off a while ago.

I have already painted Gunther Laranscheld and am using him as my basic Necromancer.

Paint Gunther: 

Skin: "Kislev Flesh" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Skull: "Screaming Skull" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Robes: "Naggaroth Night" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash and then dry brush lightly with "Genestealer Purple"
Outer Cape: "Adminstratum Grey" /w "Templar Black" wash
Inner Cape & Raised Collar:  "Mephiston Red" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash  
Metal Bitz: "Runefang Steel" & "Gehenna"s Gold" both /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 
Shoes: "Abaddon Black"

 

 

 

 

Paint Luthor the Hunchback: 

Skin: "Flash Gitz Yellow" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Robes: "XV-88" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 
Cowl: "Screaming Skull" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Pants:  "Mephiston Red" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash  
Metal Bitz:  /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 
Club: "Runefang Steel" & "Catachan Flesh" both /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash
Shoes: "Abaddon Black"
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Much earlier, I painted 12 Tomb Guardians using a simpler model. As I finally have access to these STLs, I'm going to replace them with these below. I only have 8 printed so far, so I painted up these 3 to "finish" Catacombs of Terror. 

Paint Tomb Guardians: 

Robes: "Moot Green" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 
Bones: "Screaming Skull" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Metal Bitz: "Runefang Steel" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 

Paint Dread King & Throne: 

Robes & Throne Cushions: "Mephiston Red" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 
Bones: "Screaming Skull" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Horns on Throne: "Scar White" /w "Skeleton Horde" Wash
Staff Wings, Throne Columns, & Crown's Veil: "Moot Green"
Teeth & Eye: "Scar White"
Metal Bitz: "Runefang Steel" & "Gehenna"s Gold" both /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash 

Paint Grimoire:

Pages: "Kislev Flesh"  /w "Skeleton Horde" WashMetal Bitz: "Gehenna"s Gold" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash  
Book Stand: "Sotek Green" /w "Agrax Earthshade" Wash  
Bookmark: "Flash Gitz Yellow"
Book Cover: "XV-88"

 

 

 

 

 

I think for the next blog I'll be painting what I'm missing from "Lair of the Orc Lord" and a replacement for one of the large monsters I found a more classic STL for. 

That's all for this post, may your lantern always stay lit.

Finished Level 3 Monster Encounter Table

 Everything left for DL 3 monster encounter table is either an enemy Wizards or Unit Champions. Lets get started with Skaven Warlock. I was able to find Grey Seer Thanquol on Telegram. I like using special characters for champions and wizards where possible. 

Rather basic paint scheme, "Gehenna's Gold' Helmet, Glowing "Moot Green" Staff, Sword, and Amulet. "Mephiston Red" & "Kantor Blue" robes.  "Kislev Flesh" with "Agrax EarthShade" wash for skin. And the usual "Emporer's Children" pink for Nose, ears, and Tail.

 Here is a picture of the different types of Skaven that show up through level 3.

Left to right: Plague Monk, Gutter Runner, Stormvermin, Rat Ogre, Clanrat, & Warlock.

 Next, 3 Beastmen Champions. This model comes from Mordenheim Beastmen Team (as will the Beastmen Hero/Lord when he shows up on Level 5 and found on Telegram). Maintaining my polar bear paint scheme of White Fur with black skin, and human skin for all their leather.

 Next up, Chaos Dwarf Sorcerer. This STL comes from Tonoborus's free Chaos Dwarf pack. All the Chaos Dwarves and Hobgoblins from this pack were original sculps from Fabelzel. If you go looking you can find more posses and models he made (I did this to find a Bull Centaur Champion). I maintained the same paint scheme as my normal Chaos Dwarfs and Blunderbusses (Gold, Red, and Black). but added some yellow sleeves.

 

 Lets take a look at the various types of Chaos Dwarfs that show up through level 3.

Left to right: Bull Centaur, Sorcerer, Blunderbuss, normal Chaos Dwarf, & Hobgoblin.

Necromancer please, raise up some friends. This necromancer came in the original Warhammer Quest Catacombs of Terror expansion. His name it that is Gunther Laranscheld (found on Telegram).

 Here is a picture of the different types of Undead that show up through level 3.

Left to right: Zombie, Wight, Skeleton Swordsmen, Necromancer, Skeleton Bowmen, Ghost, & Ghoul. 

 Onto Dark Elf Sorceress. This is the 5th edition Morathi model (found on Telegram).

  Lets take a look at the various types of Dark Elves that show up through level 3.

 

Left to right: Crossbowmen, Sorceress, Black Guard, and Witch.

 Now for the Beastmen Shaman. This also comes from the Mordenheim Beastmen troop. 

 Next the Minotaur Champion. I made this model by combining several different STLs I acquired. The blog post "Theseus's Nemesis" covers this in greater detail. 

 Lets take a look at the various types of Beastmen that show up through level 3.

From Left to right: Minotaur, Minotaur Champion, Beastmen Shaman, Beastmen Champion, Beastmen.

That leaves us with only one model left for the Level 3 encounter table, Centaur Champion. I made this model by combining several different STLs and go over the process in the blog post "Bases, Centaurs, and Start-of-Dungeon level 2". 

 

 Here is a picture of the Champion next to normal centaur and the Elf hero for size comparison.

  

I'm up to 439 monsters painted, 535 monsters 3D printed of the 558 needed as of 6/28/25. 

The Level 3 Encounter table is now complete, now to start on Level 4. 

That's all for this post, may your lantern always stay lit.
