Hello again Reaper Message Boardonians!

 

So here's another piece of old school goodness, a Ral Partha Charging Barbarian, sculpted by Julie Guthrie way back in the delightful eighties.  This one was originally in one of the Partha Boxed sets, 98-015 Bezerkers, and now is sold individually at Iron Wind Metals.

Pretty quick to paint as he was unencumbered by too much armor, clothing or general stuff.  My biggest challenge with this fellow was to figure out his hair color.  Blonde eventually won the day.  

 

Anyhoos, please enjoy!

Your paint skill really showcases these older sculpts. 

Thanks Loim! Even though I’m blown away by her current work, I really love these pieces from Julie Guthrie’s early career!

That's another cool model and an awesome paint job. You did a very nice job on the skin shadows.

Thanks Metal Chaos!  Skin started out with Reaper Tanned Skin and worked down and up from there.

Great job on that guy. Love old school minis. 

Thank you Jeepnewbie!  Yeah, I agree, this is a nice old school Julie Guthrie figure, who did great sculpts in the day, but look at what she does now as well, so beautiful her work!

I love the gradient on those muscles. I'm still struggling to paint gradient. Great work!

Thank you much! It’s a lot of washes and highlights!

      My first figure 2021. I started painting about 2 years and took a year+ off from it. I decided to get back into and got some new paints and brushes for Xmas. Still working on my technique and would like to hear your opinion.

      Citrine paints Grenadier Female Halfling Thief
      By Citrine
      This is the last mini finished in December 2020, mini number 79 of the year.  I hit 97 mini if I count large minis as 2 each.  Not too shabby, my goal was to finish 50.
       
      So this mini is the Female Halfling II from the Julie Guthrie series 2 from Grenadier (SKU 8145).  She is the smallest mini I have painted in a long time, so I am super happy with her face.

      I wanted Conan.  and this looked pretty much exactly like him.  I painted him up a month or two ago, and since I already posted my wizard today I decided to post Dantrag (Conan) today as well.  Again, any tips or advice on painting or photographing will be gratefully accepted.

      What's that in the underbrush? Cuth Wolfson to the rescue!

      Thunderbolt Mountain/Ral Partha Legacy Wood Elf Lord, sculpted by Tom Meier
      By 72moonglum
      And good evening to all towards the end of the year of 2020!
       
      So I just finished this one this morning, another Wood Elf sculpted by Tom Meier for Thunderbolt Mountain Miniatures and recently re-released by Ral Partha Legacy.
       

       
      His eyes are very small, and I tried to stay "in the lines" but they may have slightly gotten out of their orbits.
       
      My only other problem here was trying to figure out the colors, but hopefully what I eventually chosen doesn't clash.
       
      Anyhoos, enjoy!
