CashWiley Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I've posted a couple, here are a couple more in my archive folder on dropbox...I'll need to get pics of more. First is from a Partha TSR box for the Dungeon game (I have more of those painted). Soth of course from the Villains box. And the wizard is actually from a Scrye life counter Reaper made a while back. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimreaper71 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Soth of course from the Villains box. Wow Cash it is very cool to see some of your early work. You can see even then that you have a great talent for painting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72moonglum Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Very nice all three of them! Looks like they've definitely seen some adventures! Keep them coming! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CashWiley Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Soth was an experiment in drybrushing over a black primer. Even back then I liked to experiment with new things, though my range of knowledge was so much smaller without the Internet! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72moonglum Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Yeah, with my miniature isolation, the Internet was a godsend. I can see tons of different painters, styles, miniatures, et cetera... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72moonglum Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 So in my attempt to keep this topic alive, a few more old, old figures of mine, painted back in nineteen eighty something. Tonight a really old Citadel Hill Giant. I really wish I had this figure to paint again, really like this funky older figure. Also a very small Dennis Mize Ninja and a old Tom Meier Centaur. Enjoy and pull out your own classics from the days of yore... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimreaper71 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Wow the gaint looks good and I love the centaur he is in a great pose! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citrine Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Here are some oldies in my collection, so we can keep this topic alive: Ral Partha Gnome and Halflings, the female halfling was our first conversion: Ral Partha and Grenadier Dark Elves: Ral Partha Bugbears, with the bones bugbear to show scale creep. I actually like the newer size better for this, the older ones are a bit small. Julie Guthrie Grenadier ladies, among the first ones I painted long ago. They have gotten lot of use over time, the noses are flat on 2 of them from falling over Julie Guthrie Grenadier elves: The Grenadier Hydra from the Dragon of the Month collection. I went with the box art as my inspiration, and I painted this on a Friday and Saturday to have it ready for a gaming session on Sunday. This was my proudest paint achievement for a long time. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimreaper71 Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) Wow Citrine a lot of very nice minis. I have the female dark elf but have not seen any of the others. The hydra is beautifully done. Perfect examples of minis for this thread. What a great bunch of gems.

72moonglum Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 That's very bizarre, I was just thinking of taking some more photos this morning, logged on and saw these great new additions! I really like your modified little hobbit chick and when I think how small she is and how large figures are nowadays, she'd be a perfect sprite or pixie! The hydra is extremely cool. A lot of time had to have gone into that one! Thanks for the size comparison shot as well, always fun to see those! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72moonglum Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 And I probably mentioned it before, but I will again, one of the things I really like about these types of pictures is just seeing these older pieces in live and vivid color. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72moonglum Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Okay, took long enough to actually do it, but here are some more really old ones, painted back in the early to mid-eighties. With the hobbit photo, I took him next to the bottle of paint for a bit of size comparison. That is a really tiny figure and the dwarf isn't much bigger. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
