Sentry imp

 I don't know what this miniature is, it was a free gift in an ebay purchase. If anyone knows anything about it, please let me know. I think this is the first time I've painted a model without any metallic paint.

He's probably supposed to be riding, given the sitting posture, but in the absence of steed I've given him an old rock to perch tensely on. Not sure whoever carved those symbols would approve.

He really is tiny, as you can see here. Surprisingly well sculpted I think, the definition of the leg muscles in particular is impressive 💪.

River Troll part II

 I've made him a scenic base. Some of the vegetation looks a little dodgy and indistinct, but I'm quite pleased with it. 

 

  

 

River Troll

 A Games Workshop River Troll from 1992, sculpted by Michael Perry. Still needs a base, which could be challenging!

Night Goblin trio

 Here they are all together.

Night Goblin #3

Here's the last of the three GW night goblins currently in my possession. Again from around 1992, probably from the same set, here's a standard-bearer.

I wasn't sure what to put on the banner. At first I tried a pine tree at the wife's suggestion, but it looked like a Christmas tree. I think the moon turned out OK. It was also pointed out that his outfit makes him look like Mother Theresa. Oh well.

I think there's at least one half-focused picture in there.

The banner was originally meant to be wrapped around the pole, as seen here. I settled on flapping-in-the-wind. Just a bit more dynamic.

New Old Longbeard

This is a Marauder Longbeard from 1992. I uncovered it on a trip to my parents' house a couple of Christmases ago. He had a bit of paint very roughly splashed on him and, in the spirit of previous model restorations, I have updated the painting without altering the paint choices too much.

The model as found:

How he looks now:

Some progress shots. I changed the small gems from red to blue/green, and the large purple one to orangey-red. Perhaps my first choice was better?
