Frostgrave by Duster

This mini was the test miniatures for the tribals a few years ago…  I turned it into a Pearl Diver…  No WiPs for this one as i did it on and off during summer…

I’m happy with him, except for the tatoos and the water effect!  The problem with them is that i went in without a plan and i was too lazy to paint over them!  The water effect isn’t bad but, it could be better.

Pic of a Ghost Archipelago boat i did this summer…  All drybrushed over black primer, nothing fancy…

2 quick ones, without WiPs, since i painted them in about 35 minutes total… counting the 20 minutes time you have to wait for the Contrast paint to dry!

I went with Flesh Tearers Red, to test it out before i moved to the Major Demon!

I’m happy how they turned out but, i should’ve taken the pictures before the coat of varnish, because it altered a bit the red: i think there was a tad too much humidity in the air.  The red, particularaly on the imps legs turned a bit whity…

I still have a set of those guys sitting around (won an auction with 2 sets and a Major Demon for about 40% of total value!) and i’ll be painting them later on in blues most likely…

Managed not to get distracted (not too much 😉 ) and finished this one!  Did not add any Contrast paints after the beard and i like how the mini turned out.  He’s the 13th Warrior (pun intended!) done for my warband and with the  Contrast paints i used, it will hasten the work!

Snakebite Leather for the main leather, Gore-Grunta for the furs and Basilicanum Grey for the beard (i will try other Contrast for beards/hair on others).

Managed to add to my Frostgrave archer and took some pics for my 2nd round of WiP!  I used another Contrast paint for the beard!  I used Basilicanum Grey and i’m happy how it came out.  I also added some Guilliman Flesh Contrast on top of my AP Barbarian Flesh to test it out and it worked well…

I’ve started this archer a few weeks ago with some GW Contrasts: Snakebite Leather and Gore-Grunta Fur and both gave me great results!  I painted the cloak to show how the Gore-Grunta Fur turned out and it turned out better with this guy than on my fur cloak on a D&D miniature, i think it’s due to the fact that the barbarian’s cloak is simpler in design…

Here are the first two WIP pics for this guy

These five guys are for Ghost Archipelago and appear in the “Cities of Bronze” supplement.  They are called Groggers and since North Star don’t produce minis for them, they suggested “Deep One”, from their Horror range.

I don’t have work in progress pics for them, since i painted them in about 5-10 minutes each!  In a rare move on my part, as soon as  the varnish dried off, i flocked them and tried some water effects on some (i usually wait a few weeks!).  I used a “Woodland Scenics product for the water effect but, not super happy about it…  Any one has a good one to recommand?

Sorry for the pics on those, they are rather dark minis…  will try some better ones later.

I’ll start this project by posting a group shot of the barbarians i had on my blog before on BoW 1.0.

I had also completed all the Ulterior Motives minis but i’ll forego the pics as they are pretty simple minis 😉
