The fine folks over at Better Than Heroes hired me to paint up their characters for an upcoming live show they had. I was given the freedom to make my own stylistic choices but the above art was the reference for four of the five miniatures. The minis themselves were created in Heroforge I believe, … Continue reading A Better Than Heroes Commission
Nobody Expected the Inquisition
News doesn't travel fast across the vast Imperium of Man. If the years of the Indomitus Crusade were chaotic, then the years following it were nothing short of a logistical nightmare. Forces became separated as they crossed into the Imperium Nihilus, sometimes showing back up decades later. Many fleets were never heard from again, many … Continue reading Nobody Expected the Inquisition
Tainted Grail Heroes
I didn't back this kickstarter but it looked right up my alley so when my roommate said he was going to sell off the entire collection I snatched them right up! The quality of the minis isn't great, but the concepts are fantastic and I've found myself using them for D&D all the time too. … Continue reading Tainted Grail Heroes
Léa
This bust is from the Exquis line by Ouroboros Miniatures, a range of more modern female busts as opposed to the plethora of sci-fi, fantasy, and historic busts out there. Now when I bought this bust I had never painted one before, so I didn't really know what I was looking for. I didn't want … Continue reading Léa
Wave 2 Necrons
It's been a while since a post showed up here, but that's not due to a lack of painting! I've added quite a lot to the Necrons in the Indomitus box, and spruced up those ones a tiny bit too. Mostly just added some of that fluorescent orange to the various blades though, the actual … Continue reading Wave 2 Necrons
Absolute
There's a fair sized pile of nice display minis I have yet to actually paint, so one day I picked four and asked people on instagram to vote on which one I should work on next. Absolute, from Ouroboros Miniatures narrowly won that vote so I dedicated the next couple evenings of painting to her … Continue reading Absolute
Painting Warcry Terrain
There is a mountain of plastic in the Warcry starter box, and so much of it is awesome terrain that you can use for anything dark fantasy related. I made it a goal of mine to get the whole box set painted before the end of the year, so getting the terrain done felt like … Continue reading Painting Warcry Terrain
Some of the Raven’s Men
I've needed to get paint on these guys for ages, but I kept holding off because I haven't finished converting the rest of the warband. They're theoretically intended for playing Mordheim, but given the pandemic and how rarely I play anything anyway I finally accepted that it was past time to slap some paint on … Continue reading Some of the Raven’s Men
Painting Indomitus Necrons
I'm learning that when the motivation hits, I've gotta run with it! Last week I was struck by the desire to paint Necrons for the first time ever, so I pulled out the Necron half of my Indomitus box (plus an extra Overlord I had around) and set to work. The main goal here was … Continue reading Painting Indomitus Necrons
Witcher Boardgame Minis
I discovered the Witcher boardgame through my friends Charlie and Jill, and while we have never finished a full game it has been so much fun that I really wanted to get the minis for it painted. Unfortunately, I don't think the creators of the game ever intended these to be painted because the quality … Continue reading Witcher Boardgame Minis
