Project Entry by zebraoutrider

And now onto the next 50…

October 9, 2021

I’ve decided not to prepare an entry for GW’s Armies on Parade this year, instead I’m taking instruction from young Thomas who inspired this project. He congratulated me on creating and painting 50 miniatures in two months and set me the challenge to paint another 50 by Christmas. Challenge accepted Thomas… but what theme? Back to the Arabian Adventures? Across the wilderness? Down to the beach or further Beauties with Beasts? Well, all great D&D adventures seem to start in a tavern or inn… so that’s where we will go! I think some NPC Dunkeldorf pub customers may be useful for our adventuring party… but first let’s meet some of the tavern staff…

Reaper Miniatures - Townsfolk I (Innkeeper, Wench, Barmaid) SKU: 02583 Sculpted by Bobby Jackson. Mounted on 30mm lipped round bases as trying to remove their integral bases was too much faff. I’ve deliberately given the barmaid with the tray a black eye as if the Innkeeper is not that nice a bloke - hopefully some honourable adventurers will teach him a lesson for being a bully? I’ve painted this trio with simple, plain colours to reflect their status and dirtied their aprons to suggest that they work hard for their customers.
