Finished

Standard and grass painted And that’s it, except for a layer of varnish and basing, these guys are finished. I’ll add a post on the varnish in my next update as I’ll be trying something new. Overall, these guys took … Continue reading

Pelts drybrushed

Pelts drybrushed Ahhh, drybrushing. Something I rarely do. I usually find it better to paint on my highlights instead of drybrushing. Only for very textured surfaces like these pelts do I use drybrushing. Even some styles of hair don’t get … Continue reading

Weapon Shafts

Give ‘em the shaft boys Another quick step done and I can smell the finish-line. I’m not going to bother highlighting the weapon shafts or small sacks on the goblin’s belts. At this scale only important areas need highlighting. When … Continue reading

Shields Painted

Shields painted This stage certainly didn’t take very long, as the only parts of the figures painted this colour was the shields and half the unit banner. As you can see I left some of the brown around the black … Continue reading

Highlighted Leather

Man, I hate painting 10mm scale boots All the leatherwork on these miniatures are done. Unfortunately it came out much more orange than I would have liked. Which is funny, because I used VMC Mahogany Brown, VMC Red Leather, and … Continue reading

Red Base Coat finished

The miniatures are starting to look less stark. Wow, things are rolling right along. I’m actually writing this Oct 13th because that’s when I finished this stage of the miniatures. I’ve been trying to work ahead to give myself the … Continue reading

Silver Armour Painted

Shiney metal shows how gritty the casting is. Finished the chain armour, weapons and helmets on Bolg’s Bodyguard. I didn’t end up drybrushing on the silver. The plan is that I’ll hit everything with a Vallejo Shadow wash once all … Continue reading
