A sleepy Skeletons WIPs straight from the workbench
« on: April 05, 2024, 07:38:21 PM »
Here are some shots of Kelly Kraken from scale75's Smog Riders line. I'm painting her as a gift to my girlfriend and she asked for a purple dress and green belt/bow.

I'll plonk her down on a scratch built beach base with some water effects later when she's done and because of the beach environment my girl wanted the mini to have a darker, sun tanned look and I think I'm almost there. Though I could add some more shadows, I think.

She's definitively a cute mini and fun to work on. Also that smug smirk is deadly! :D

I snapped two quick shots before leaving for work this morning of this old Reaper vampire I'm finally working on.

I'm using Stuart Semple's Black 3.0 on the cloak's inside. It's the mattest black I've ever seen but a bit temperamental to use on small minis but the result is worth it. I've used it on a rubber duck with great success becore :D

I've spent a lovely afternoon on the balcony attaching wings from a Dark Eldar mini (Scourge?) to a Frostgrave Demon body to see if it works. I've got another pair of the bat-like wings and two pairs with feathers in the bitz box for more.

I've also cleaned up and primed a Reaper bones black Chicken swarm. I need a Link now too i guess  lol

Gonna swing the brush a bit tomorrow, today was mostly chores so I'm really excited to get back to painting.

Done a bit more work on the skellies from Wargames Atlantic (really nice kit) and a sassy Oathmark skeleton.

The winged demon is a great looking chap.
But the OM skeleton obviously steals the show
