Finished this up a few weeks ago. Tried a lot of things with this - colour composition art reference, subdued NMM, considering spot colour placement, using a wider range of colours for oil pin washes. Took quite a long time but I was pleased with how it turned out.

Lots of critique appreciated! I'd like to get to painting/sculpting display quality one day! I do understand that the blurry photos with a bright as heck light are hard to critique - I'll get better. Leave it to my excitable brain to convince me that I should paint minis as gifts before I've even finished painting my first goblin! The gifts are for my three dearest friends and my husband's D&D group. I would like to have the first 3 done by New Year's, when we meet up again! They'll be really surprised! The guys know that they are getting a painted mini for their gifts, so I've got til Jan/Feb to complete in time for the campaign start. The Gifts: 77016: Rats - Angel Ratties - This friend lost her two furbabies this summer, so I thought I'd make a tribute for her. This was the beginning of the slippery slope... Now I'm at 6 gifts! 02982: Casiatta - Battlemage Babe of House Slytherin - I swear this is my friend in miniature form! She's so fierce! 02910: Cheetah Girl - Khajiit Marksman - This friend introduced me to Morrowind, and by extension, introduced me to real video games and fantasy worlds outside of books. Morrowind will always be in our hearts! 03445: Drunk Pirate - For their drunken (edit: should be pirate, but drunken works too...) campaign. He'll actually be DM'ing, but I know he'll get a good laugh out of this one, and he'll enjoy still having a mini. 03131: Eric Swiftblade - A good swashbuckler mini for the campaign. 03646: Barnabus Frost - My better half's pirate mini! The Progress: Rats: Completed! WIP: Completed: Slytherin Battlemage: WIP before this post: Khajiit: To be ordered this weekend! In progress! Finished! Drunken Pirate: To be ordered this weekend! Primed! Eric Swiftblade: To be ordered this weekend! Primed! Barnabus Frost: To be ordered this weekend! Primed! Thanks for checking it out!
