Hi all,

this is my first stab into real Fantasy and in particular Frostgrave. I loved the figures from the Northstar range from the very beginning and was playing for a while with the thought of getting some and painting them. Just before Christmas I gave in and decided to paint some as a change to all the historical miniatures I usually tackle. I love the sculpt and painting them was a great pleasure.

Here are a few pictures of the individual figures. Please follow the links for more picture or visit my website: http://www.sascha-herm.com/  ;)

I hope you like them. All comments are very welcome :)

Kind regards

Lovely paintjobs! I also really like the sculpts but all my Frostgrave metals have been horrible casts with pretty bad mold lines, so I mostly stick to plastics.

You are right. The casting isn't as good as I expected and I had to "guess paint " some of the detail  ;) Still quite like the miniature though  :)

Those look great! The red and yellow on the wizard pops beautifully and adds a nice splash for the apprentice. Will you be working through the rest of the Barbarian metals or are you thinking of knocking out the plastics?
Just a few onions short of a patch.

Great stuff.

Nice brushwork Sascha!!!!!

After looking at your figures I caved and ordered the Plastic Barbarian Boxed set.

Consider me subscribed  ;)

Happy Painting,

Very nice painting - I almost went straight for the box labeled 'Frostgrave Minis' in my 'Fantasy' crate (then I remembered, I am busy painting a warband for SAGA lol).

I look forward to see what you do with the rest of those barbarians!

Very good. made me think more about the barbarian boxset. I have the soldiers boxset and am really impressed by that by might grab the barbarians as well.
