Some Talisman 1st and 3rd edition minis

Wow, you really are getting the most out of those old single piece sculpts. Really inspiring work on these.

Amazing work DS, really impressed and thanks for sharing them with us.

 

Personally I think these sculpts really lend themselves to a more cartoonish approach. And you've capitalized on that strength to totally offset the model's weaknesses.

 

Great job.

Finished up the 3rd edition Wizard. Here he is below

 

 

As always, painted to match the character chard artwork as much as possible. The color theory was everywhere on this character card art, which shows the painted version in this case as with the other 3rd edition character cards. I paint them to match as much as I can even though I would have chosen the colors much differently if it was me but hey, it is what it is. In the end you can't miss this figure on the game board! I think there's a piece of static grass that stuck to the mini before photographing. Which is odd since I didn't use any! Have to pluck that off now that I see it.

Hey thank you, I paint my commissions as if they were going into my own collection. Glad you're inspired my friend that's a good way to be.

Thank you and you're very welcome. They do indeed, what with the vivid colors and bold broad expanses of sculpted areas. I like that part that you said about capitalizing on that strength, very nice way of putting the sentiment, thank you for that!

 

Ok will be over a month until I update this post, then I will update it with 4 more minis next month. Have another big project to tackle that's going to eat up my paintin' time this month. Until then, happiness and prosperity be your ever present companions.

...Wow

Great work Sean, I saw the original artwork and I like the way you painted the cape and all the other subtle details.

That's going to be an amazing collection.

Fantastic work on his robe.

[JoeGKushner]

Just wanted to chime in with a fantastic job there, especially the NMM on the barbarian for example. Great stuff.

[tommisalama]

Holy..... That wizard is awesome!

[chaosscorpion]

Loving the freehand work.

That wizard rules. Marvelous weathering on the sword.

[Darkstar]

...Wow

 

Thanks!

Thank you, the collection is going to be nuts when it's all done. Going to take awhile there's like 80 figures or something crazy like that, but after all is done it will be one-of-a-kind, I'm super enthused for the day when it's all done

 

Fantastic work on his robe.

 

Thank you very much, much obliged

Alright, awesome is what I'm shooting for, thanks!

Thank you, it was easy, one day I'll do a workup of how I paint metallics when I get better at them I still feel like I need to unlock more mysteries of metallics first

Been a busy couple of months!  Don't want to overload this page with a ton of images so I'll just post one per day.   Today I'll start with the one I finished yesterday, the 3rd Edition Barbarian:

 

 

More to come tomorrow and so on, I've painted quite a few but haven't got around to posting any of that work until now.  Now that things have finally settled down after the holiday whirlwind I can get back to my "e-life".

Amazing work!

[mangochutnee]

Great stubble effect on the barbarian. He looks totally nonplussed: "Why yes. This is my axe. Thank you for noticing."

First time I've looked at this thread was today, and I have to say how impressed I am with your skill and the details you add into these minis. Love how colourful you've made them to. Wonderful work!
