Whimsical Fantasy Miniatures
Starting On The Time Bandits
I’ve had this excellent set of seventeen miniatures for over two years and they were indeed the first miniatures I ever bought from Northumbrian Tin Soldier so it was high time that I started to paint them.
As you can see I’ve started with the evil ones first.
…and of course now for the Lloyd shots.
I spent time trying to get the shading and highlights of the reds to work as some of the furrows in Evil’s cloak are quite shallow. After some experimenting I found adding brown to my red seemed to work quite well for shading.
Also one of the minions (Benson) has a plastic wrap over his head but painting this on the model would be quite tricky so I opted for a thinned down white wash of sorts with some of his flesh colour showing through.
