Reaper Bones - werewolf and purple worm.
« on: 14 August 2012, 06:41:44 PM »
No claim to any particular quality, but nice minis that paint up well.  And super-cheap.

Just spotted a mould line though  >:(

NIce!

And that worm is a cracking model. I almost can't afford not to buy it!

Look great. My only criticism is the nose on the werewolf - not the pj, just the fact a black nose never looks right to me for some reason....similar on Otherworld Hobgoblins having a blue nose...completely throws the pj  ::)

Thanks everyone.  They're lovely sculpts with good texture (I can't paint freehand to save myself).

Dozing Dragon - I agonised over keeping the nose more flesh-coloured, and I did tone it down a lot from the initial shiny black one I did.  On reflection, I agree with you.  I'm not sure keeping the fur so simple was the best idea either, but I didn't want to detract from the fleshtones with more varied colours.

Cherno - I pinched the idea for the foliage on those Pegasus ruins from Mason over in Fantasy Adventures on this site - check out his building thread  for some amazing scenics:

Besides, the greenery hides all the mould lines and joins  :D
