Title: Hellboy miniatures
Post by: Giger on May 19, 2020, 11:02:06 AM

I've finally started to work on the miniatures from the Hellboy Boardgame.  Nothing crazy paint wise, just a quick contrast paint job over a pre-shaded undercoat.  More images and waffle from me on my blog:

Absolutely amazing haow fast and good you painted them!
How did you created the ghost look on the clear Johann mini?

Cheers Agis, with clear Johann I used a little contrast black and lightly over brushed his human details.  It just needed a couple of layers of varnish to seal him afterwards.

Nice painting. I was put off from supporting the kickstarter due to the number of minions but it looks like you have a good looking collection.

Title: Re: Hellboy miniatures
Post by: Giger on June 27, 2020, 02:00:24 AM

Thanks, there were quite a few minions but at least there was variety (Frogs, Germans, Witches etc.)

The the batch of miniatures for Hellboy is now painted meaning the whole lot was done in one month, I don't think I'll manage that again in this life time :D

Again - splendid job!

I played my 1st game yesterday - NICE!
The game really captures the Hellboy feel IMO.
I have to paint more also...
