Beastwarden

A Beastwarden from Frostgrave Ghost Archipelago, made by Northstar Miniatures. Not sure what a beastwared is but assumed it's some sort of shaman associated with animals... I wasn't sure what all his props and accoutrements were at first either but I painted them mostly as bones I think it came out quite well. I enjoyed doing some freehand detail on the blue sash and on the satchel.

This is a WIP shot but you can see the bag detail.

Wizard: Darius the Blue.

Darius the Blue from Reaper. This was a birthday present last year. Painted around August. The name made the choice of main colour quite easy. I went with yellow as a contrasting colour.

Some WIP:

New models

Coming soon (not very soon):

A reaper Hillbilly, a Frostgrave Beastwarden and three Oathmark goblins.

Sea dogs

Continuing the Age of Sail theme here with some of Crusader miniatures Sea dogs. Again they are made by Northstar.

I really liked adding stubble to the first model's head, and the beard on the second seaman really made him come to life. I looked up period clothing to try to get the colours right. The soldiery type is wearing a British uniform. I continued the scenic base idea with two of this set, although you can only really see it on the third one.

Scurvy Dogs

These miniatures are by Artizan designs, made by Nick Eyre's Northstar figures.

The scenic base on the last figure was an experiment that I am quite pleased with. So often the edge of the base forms a frame, I like the scenery spilling over here.

More Thunderers

 

Work in progress

I enjoyed painting this model in particular, even consulting a colour wheel to choose his outfit.

Thunderers

Along with the painted longbeards and unpainted Bugman's Brewers I found a collection of thunderers, some of which were luridly half-painted I had a lot of fun finishing them off.

Half painted state

Some work in progress pictures.
