Title: Putting a bit weight on a musketeer. Finished.
Post by: THE CID on July 07, 2025, 05:19:58 PM

Getting ready to paint my Bloody Miniatures swashbuckling musketeers. Apparently Athos was a bit on the chunkier side so I’ve decided to give him a bit of a gut. So out came the Green Stuff and a spare tyre and bigger backside was created. I’ll be starting to paint him tomorrow, maybe in an Oliver Reed tribute colour scheme.

Great conversion. Full of character. But I always thought it was Porthos who was the big one.

So did I, but I decided to go for the Oliver Reed look. 🤣
