Painting up Cthulhu Death May Die and expansions 2025-05-04

Nice painting!
Still not a big fan of the sculpt though, walking on two goat legs is missing the point where Goat is just a name given by people looking for mental hooks to understand the otherworldly horrors.

Wilbur Whateley and very early WIP of Yog-Sothoth as I tried to decide what main color to use.

@Freddy, if you think the Black Goat has a stupid design - then you will be delighted to know that one of the boss monsters that players have to defeat by combat in the upcoming Kickstarter is Azathoth

Nice models

I already saw a model for ,,colour from outer space". Thre sculpture was not that bad, but I am waiting for painters to find the colour previously unknown on planet Earth

Yog-Sothtoth painted up. A very complext miniature and probably the most complext miniature out of the Cthulhu Death May Die collection that I've painted so far.

I wanted to work in some additional colors instead of painting the whole thing pale, and think it worked out quite OK.

[Freddy]

Now this is cool (painting ofc, but the sculpt too)

[Anatoli]

Prepped all the monsters from Season 2 yesterday, and started painting up some of them today so we can try out at least two new scenarios.

Star vampires and Bokrug.

[Freddy]

They are nice! (Bokrug looks like a Tyranid )

[Anatoli]

Some more season 2 monsters: Yugg, Tcho-Tcho, Dimensional Shambler and Flying polyp.

Got to admit, not that fun to paint and kind of pushing myself to finish this lot with the monster minis I least look foward to painting for last. At least there will be some fun characters to paint from the hero section of the box once the monsters are done.

[Pattus Magnus]

They might not have been much fun to paint, but you certainly got them to look good! The flying polyp appeals to me, maybe because of the bright colours on the eyes.

[Freddy]

I also really like the bright eyed polyp.

[Anatoli]

Some more monsters, Nightgaunt and Elder Thing

[Freddy]

Nice! I would'we painted the nightgaunts for some dark blue, but that is kinda cliché.

[Anatoli]

Yeah I agree, thgouh I felt that I had already done the paintjob they should have had on the haunting horrors. Also, I was pretty much uninspired and just wanted to get these done. Still had trouble as I was not happy with the end result twice. So the minis are a weird mix of airbrush, oil wash, drybrush, oil wash, drybrush oil wash again... 

The ugliest and least fun monsters are left to do, really been pushing those to the bottom of the queue -hound of tindalos. Looks nothing like I would have imagined and have a stupid hole through their body. Half the mini is pretty cool with the brain, maw and claws, but half the mini looks like a weird mechanical thing.... Will try to paint those up in the week so I can get to the remaining 10 heroes from season 2.

[Anatoli]

After a break I mustered the energy to finally paint up the two hound of tindalos monsters. Horrible sculpt and design choices combined made this the least fun I've had painting minis for this game. Fortunately all the monsters are done and I have 10 heroes left to paint that should offer a pretty good time.

The main colors for this paintjob was inspired by the old Arkham Horror 2nd edition Hound of Tindalos artwork.

[Freddy]

Hounds of Tyranidlos, yes, at least the painting looks good
I also put my hand onto some figures from this game, we will see
