Fungi from the depth!

 I spent a good part of November and December working on & off on on my collection of fantasy mushrooms, fungus & "Myconids". It let me play with a stranger array of color than my usual style of miniature painting. 

I view them as an experiment - I'm not happy with all of them by any means but it was fun.

When Mushrooms Attack!!!

First up are some figures from Reaper Miniatures Bones line...

Terrain

 Some terrain pieces I finished last year - something for a lord's study, or a wizard's library.

They are from Mantic Games and were included in the Game Master's Dungeon Starter set.



The following are from Mantic and Reaper Miniatures. The standing stones are from Mantic's Battlefield Objectives set, and the Sacrificial Altar is from Reaper.

More Revisted Grenadier

 When I was repainted the Barbarian I posted about yesterday I also took a shot at repainting this guy, from the same set:

Elf Thief from Grenadier set "5001 Explorers"

Look at that... barely chipped from his 40+ years of adventuring under enamel paint.

I'm fairly pleased with the revisit, though he has lost his dayglow green elven eyes, and looks more like rogue late for his haircut appointment.

:D


Hook Horror

 This was part of my December painting run - the Nolzer's Hook Horror, one of my favorite monsters from the Fiend Folio.

Went with earthy browns and greys with gloss on the beak and spines/hooks.

:D



Old Barbarian!

This repaint was inspired by a Dr. Faustus painting clinic video wherein he repainted this same miniature.

I was pleased it came out as well as it did - given that it was painted for the first time roughly 40 years ago.

Grenadier Barbarian circa 1980

This was one of the first miniatures I purchased back when starting to play D&D.

It's from the Grenadier AD&D miniature box set 5001 Explorers.

3d Printed Ogre

 One of my pals has been perfecting his 3d printing skills - this is one of his earlier prints I I love how it came out.

I have no idea who the sculptor is - but I'm fairly happy with how he turned out.



Moloch Statue

 An iconic image from those of us who stated playing D&D with the first edition players handbook - this is a 2020 Wizkids release and I loved painting it up.

Who stole my eye!!!
