Full disclosure – I don’t really know if this is a Gnome or not. She’s wearing shoes, so I’m assuming she’s not a halfling. I don’t think she’s a dwarf… So I’m guessing she’s a Gnome so that’s what I’m going with. She could be a Wizard, Sorceress, Thief (er, sorry, “Rogue” in the current nomenclature), Warlock, or even a fighter, ranger or druid. It’s a solid model with lots of possibilities!Read More →
I’m not sure whether the Runewitch Astarra is a Wizard, Sorceress, or a Warlock — But she activates magical glyphs as she gets near to them, so I’d lean toward Sorceress. This one looks better than some of the others, but… Still single-brush, still no eyes, still no wash, still only doing “layering” on the large areas. But I did attempt some fanciness by free-handing the runes/carvings on her staff! And here’s her character portrait!Read More →
This is one of the later Descent heroes I painted, and one of the first ones with which I was kinda happy. I still wasn’t using washes, but I did start to use multiple layers of colors (on skin & cloth, not other areas yet), which is really evident here on his cloak. Still not really happy with the details on this, but it really was a combination of my inexperience and the lack of / muddled details of the model itself. And here is the character card for Landrec the Wise!Read More →
Here we have one of my worst-painted models. Granted, this is one of my early paint jobs. I had many less paints, didn’t yet know the magic of washes, and had only one brush – the Citadel Starter Brush. Looking at it, I don’t think I even primed this model before painting it. Add to all of this the fact that the model is a smaller-scale (20mm, I think) and the details, particularly the facial details, are not at all sharp and you get this hot mess. Needless to say, I’m not proud of this model. But my feed has caught up with my currently painted models, and I’veRead More →
Here’s another mini I quick-painted while spending time painting & hanging out with @MrsKillerRoo and her mom. For a quickie paint job, I’m pretty happy with it! I used a Testor’s gloss paint on the emerald/green gem on her staff to give it some sheen, and the Citadel Gloss on the blue vial & yellow scroll container. I’m not a huge fan of painting on the Bones minis. I don’t know exactly what it is about them, but I feel like it’s sometimes tough to get the paint to stick without an excess amount, and it’s difficult to pick out the details on the models.

This is a Dwarf or Halfling Wizard, from the Reaper Minis “Bones” line. (Stock Image) Pre-painting: And here he is after I painted him up! Not gonna lie, I’m happy with this model:Read More →
