MYTH: a years worth of painting

[The Voivod]

So I've backed the first Myth kickstarter.
And over a year ago I received my pledge and got painting.

It truely is a wonderful game. It really struck a cord with my gaming group, which consist more of RPG'ers the miniature gamers. The co-operative nature of the game really suits us.

The models are lovely. The material isn't great (restic) and some of the details are a bit soft, but nothing a paintbrush can't fix.
The sculpts a just great. There's some very outlandish models there ( most of them still waiting to be painted. Wait till I get out the elementals and cyclopses), with a very cartoony vibe, that I really dig.

So, on to what this year yielded me:


Grubbers. I've painted plenty of orcs in my time and wanted something different for these. Therefor I went for a really bright, cartoony green.


Muckers, the grubber captaints.


Orcneas, Master of Masters. The grubber boss. This one was a blast to paint.


The Grubber spawnpoint, front and back


Crawlers. These turnes out darker then I aimed, but I think it's for the best. Wasn't to keen on these models, but they really came to life during painting.


Crawler captains. Everyone needs some giant scorpions.


And their spawnpoint



The Terror with a 1.000 legs, crawler Boss. I love this one.


Undead. I painted these in one day. Not crazy about how they turned out. They didn't take drybrushing that well. Did get me in the painting mood again, though.


Undead Captains, Soulless. These I like. Love the contrast between the green smoke and red cloaks.
Maybe should've shaded the cloak with green instead of purple, but oh well...


Undead spawnpoint


Bones, one of my favourite models of the bunch. I just love this design.

On To the heroes:


Acolytes


Archers


Soldiers, The female is quite the conversion. She used to be a ferretlady. I gave her a new head, hair and some shiny boots. I got rid of her bodyhair and tail. Pretty pleased with the conversion.
The male had cartoony, spindly arms. I did like it, but prefered some more realistic looks, so I gave him some chainmail sleeves. A bit to thick, but from a distance it looks okay.


Apprentice (wizard). This is the first non caucasian model I ever painted. I think it turned out well


And the brigand rounds out my base game heroes, and production of the last years.

I had quite a productive year, painting almost a 100 models. They are really fun to paint, with the right ammount of detail to make them interesting, but not so much you get overwhelmed.
Which is good, because this is only half of my original pledge and the next kickstarter should arrive later this year.

Pretty cool.  Now the real question.  How many times have you played the game? 

[von Lucky]

They all look extremely fine (even the undead).

Great seeing them all together now bud; they look so much better painted than in their bare grey. Again; my hat off to you: you've painted almost the entire first KS worth of minis and that's no mean feat, especially with all the add-ons you had as well.

Still missing my trusty Spriggan though...

Pretty cool.  Now the real question.  How many times have you played the game? 

Actually pretty often, as it has turned out to be our go-to game whenever a DM has to cancel his session, plus; it gets played regularly on other evenings too (or so I hear ).

I have to admit I still have to start on my own set, and the second KS is not that far off from being released too. And then there's my Mercs: Recon KS that will be arriving within the month...

Great, simply great fun these models. Good, suiting paintjob too. Really dig the Myth miniature style  .

[Dilettante Gamer]

Well done all down the line!! 

[The Voivod]

Thanks all,

It did feel like a productive year, but then I need to be with the second kickstarter arriving this year (if all things go according to plan, which, concerning kickstarter...)

Pretty cool.  Now the real question.  How many times have you played the game?  Laugh

Considering the money I've put into it; not as often as I'd like. But that counts for most of my games.
