I finished up Thelgar. I had some trouble getting him to cooperate with getting the pics. These are actually the best of the bunch. I may need to invest in a real camera at some point and come up with a decently lit area for picture taking. I want to thank Xherman for suggesting a wash on the leather parts. I was stuck trying to figure out what I wanted to do and I think his suggestion helped a lot. Nothing spectacular, but he'll work fine for the table top. Comments and critiques are most certainly welcome.

Thelgar is my current project. Working through the base coats at the moment. I'm planning on highlighting the skin up through the moss colors triad. I haven't been able to decide what I want to do with the belt and scabbard yet. Since this is for a tabletop game I'm probably not going to get too fancy. I'm going to repaint the front cloth with 9418 Oceanic Blue and highlight it with the 9419 Tropical Blue that's on it. Any suggestions or comments would be more than welcome!

This is Thelgar from the Reaper store. To me he is Makoa d'Torrn, a half-orc barbarian that carries the dragonmark of House Tharashk. Now that I take some pictures of him, I notice many little flaws, but I don't think I will be fixing them anytime soon. That being said I would love to hear any praise or suggestions. He was my first real freehand attempt (the tattoo on his chest) and my first stubble attempt. Edit to add photo below: The first mark here is what I was attempting to do:

I have not put paint to a mini in far too long. I got a chance to do so today and used my time wisely (I think). I will try and post a picture before bed, but I am about four or five hours in on this guy. 03197: Thelgar Halfblood, Half Orc Barbarian I am currently running a PC Half Orc Barbarian. He is a dragonmarked member of House Tharashk (Eberron). Two things of note that I am attempting for the first time ever with this guy: Stubble on his head. If this doesn't work out, he will just have to deal with a clean shaven head. A tattoo (basically) that looks like one of these (probably vaguely the second one): Any tips would be awesome. Thanks!

After a lot happened to me in this last months, I finally finished one painting job, 3197: Thelgar Halfblood, Half Orc Barbarian sculpted by John Manor. His colors were picked by my son, after all this miniature is his character in our game. Can´t photograph good enough to get the colors right (we don´t have milk jugs here in the south hemisphere, and the light box I created clearly isn´t working), but the image that he is standing in the cutting mat is the "close enough" to post here. Please critiques are welcome (and now that is finished I can see the crazy eyes job I did... )
