Just found this project and I have to say that I am now hooked.

A wonderful bit of conversion/repair certainly caught my attention.
Nice bit of work with the brush too!

Those three stagers are great! For more old school fun, consider the following suggestions for rookie/experienced/veteran:

Fighter
Veteran/Hero/Superhero

Ranger
Runner/Scout/Pathfinder

Magic-User
Prestidigitator/Theurgist/Warlock
(or, from Basic D&D, Medium/Magician/Sorcerer)

Cleric
Acolyte/Priest/Patriarch
(or, from Basic, Acolyte/Priest/Bishop)

and my favorite, Thief
Rogue/Burglar/Thief

I hate minis with integrated bases. However, you have done an amazing job basing them and your sculpting skill is amazing. Well done!

thanks !

Since ral partha old minis are a bit small, I choosed to keep the integrated bases, so once on a plastic base they will blend with other minis I have quite nicely.

I do the opposite on big minis : I remove the bases and base them on thin metal washers. Using this kind of technics, I can use diferent brands of minis together.

By the way, all my projects are still work in progress, they are just very looooooong term projects  lol

I "needed" to paint this one because I just finished my modern infantry project (about 140 20mm figures, I believe), and just started a new 10mm army (so regiment painting again). So to avoid masspainting overdose, I just picked up this adventurer mini, and I'm painting it during about half an hour,  some days.

Thanks !

I tried to do my best. It's also a good way to see "where I am" concerning my painting skills, since these last years, I almost only "masspainted" hundreds of minis.

Escaping production line painting is a WONDERFUL feeling. Your Bold Adventurer is FINE example of what taking some extra time produces. Your brushwork & color choices are OUTSTANDING. VERY WELL DONE!
