A new dorf! He still needs a little snow on his base, but I didn't want to wait to share. I plan to use him as a second crossbowman. I've been trying to work on my speed and not be too much of a perfectionist, and in that regard I'm pretty happy with this piece. It took about 3 sessions to complete. I decided on a whim to do an object source light on his backpack, which admittedly is not something I'm great at yet, but I think it turned out passable.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments in this thread, they really help motivate me to keep painting things and getting better.

Happy Frostgravery!

Thanks! I also love that detail, it's actually sculpted on the model.

This guy was a bit of a departure from the rest of the dwarves. Seeing as the model is called 'Magnus the Mystical' I decided to try painting him up in some nice bright high fantasy colors. It was a good exercise in NMM, fun to try a stab at the Rackham style. I'm thinking it might be time to take a group pic of my ever expanding warband of dwarves, but that will have to wait until tomorrow. Until then cheers and happy Frostgravery!

He looks amazing. You're right, a group shot is definitely in order!

I finally managed to take a group shot. I have a lot more dwarves I'd like to paint up and add to the gang, but I'm currently painting a lot of Skaven for general fantasy gaming purposes, and a piece for a painting contest, so new recruits are a few weeks out most likely.

I've been making an effort to create some respectable terrain as well. I made this wire tree after watching some model railroad videos. Those guys are seriously amazing at miniature landscapes. I made a snowy mat (unpictured, I know) as well with a yard of canvas and acrylic paint, an idea I borrowed from Jennifer's Frostgrave thread.

Also a great use for those old CDs in the closet!

Cheers!

Thanks, it really is surprising how convincing twisted wire with a couple coats of acrylic medium can look.

Recently I've been painting lots of Skaven, not spending more than a couple days working on each model, sometimes painting in small batches, all in an attempt to learn to paint faster. I was getting a little burnt out on that however, so this week I took a break and painted this female mage model for a friend. It's from Cadwallon's Legends of Signum game. A great choice for an Illusionist and impressive looking model once finished, but man, not easy to assemble!
