I painted some fantasy miniatures
« on: May 04, 2020, 09:51:00 PM »
I finally managed to finish some of the minis on my table, and even take photos. This batch are all old Citadel minis, except the gobbos who are a more recent vintage.

If you want to see their backs, you'll have to go to my blog to look at them. But here are the front views:

Very nice :) I have a fondness for those monopose beastmen in particular. Love the ogres too.

Very nice. :) I dig the pattern on the plastic beastman in the left. There's only so much we can do with these figures, so you gotta get a bit creative. :D Good stuff.

Great use of some unusual colours.

A very nice collection with a unique look.
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

I painted a few Dwarves (5, Oathmark), a single Beastman (Citadel), and a pack mule (Citadel). Here are the Dwarves trying to recover their mule from a currently very unfriendly Beastman:



I have a few more pictures on my blog.

I guess if I update my painting blog once a year that's still progress, right?

Anyways, I painted some minis and posted pictures on my blog.

I painted some Harpies (Foundry)



And some Celtos Gaels and an Oathmark Dwarf wizard



I also painted some vikings and Normans, but they're over in the appropriate subforum.

I really like those harpies. All minis painted very nicely though.
