Thanks for the feedback. I thought also about doing a blue wash on the snow and dry brushing again.

For a recent game I was able to finish these two pieces, Svetlana, Frost Giant Princess and Boerogg Blackrime, Frost Giant Jarl. I was going for a whiter skin on the giants. I tried it on Boerogg, but it did not work out like I wanted so I left Svetlana the way she was. If you want to see their in between stages, check out my blog.

I started this figure back in 2013 and stopped halfway through. This month I finally picked him up again and finished him. I tried doing the flaming sphere in purple and green. The results are less than impressive. If I had been brave I would have tried adding the light effects to his hand and arm. I was not brave.

Wow!

Last week I finished Downstairs Staff from Wargames Foundry. I have to say that I am happier with the details on these models, but not so much my photography.

This week I finished another set from Wargames Foundry. This time ne'er do wells without weapons, for the most part. I am actually quite pleased how this lot turned out. And I am not sweating the gloss coat this time.

I have been using these figures in enworld's Zeitgeist.

Unfortunately I used a gloss clear coat on these.

I finally picked up my brushes again and reached for Oswald the Overladen.

*jaw drops* *kneels in presence of greatness*

Now that I have reading glasses, it is much easier.

Thanks! It was simply dry-brushing with Army Painter Gun Metal, Platemail, Silver, then a soft tone over the scale mail. The shield I did a light brushing of Bronze over top.

Wow! Inspiring! Time to basecoat my Griffin.

This was the last of the Tieflings (aka Hellborn) in my set. I could probably use more, since my campaign is full of Tieflings. This particular familiar set is also done. Yay! Of the other familiar set, I only have the winged-snake left.There is nothing special about the cat. He was just too small for me to do much with. He just got a dry-brushing in gray. The faerie dragon I wanted to give brilliant blue wings, but I imagined that if he folded his wings they would be more camoflage, so I went with browns.The paladin was fun to paint. I should have done something with his shield. I imagined some kind of flame motif, but just did not have any good ideas.

Thanks 72moonglum! I knew this forum would not let me down.

But where are the badgers? My wife loves badgers so I am always on the lookout.

Very nicely done! Mr. Fancypants!

While in the painting swing, I painted 77149: Damien, Hellborn Wizard from the Bones Kickstarter. While doing that, I had an old figure from a friend. The figure is worn; all the edges have been smoothed. His only distinguishing feature is that he is carrying a lot of baggage. I would be curious to know where he is from if anyone can identify him. I used a strong tone on both figures. I fear that it made Damien a little muddy. I also did not wait long enough for the tone to dry before I flocked the base, so you can see static grass in the crevices of the figure. I noticed this after I took the picture. I think I got all the grass off.

Very nice! I really like the drow and the monk you painted.

I have not measured them, but they are 25-28mm. Most likely the former. My Bones figures tend to tower over them.

Awesome! I like 'em!

I got back to my Bones figures from the Kickstarter. The wolf familiar looks more like a dog to me. So I painted him to look like my wife's dog.

I continued my Victorian figures from Wargames Foundry. This time it is the police sergeants and inspectors from VC013. I am using them in the Zeitgeist Pathfinder campaign. In a nod to that world, I decided to make 2 out of 5 figures non-white. I am curious to see what adding this diversity will do to my figure collection.

Thanks for the support!

It has been over a year since I painted anything. When I sat back down to paint again, I realized I could not see the details. Weird. Then my wife suggested I try her reading glasses. Aaagh! Here are some police constables with capes from Wargames Foundry VC010. This is my first effort since I started wearing glasses while painting.
