About the Project

Hello everyone! I will use this project to showcase the progress done painting Dungeon Saga miniatures.

Other than some of the boxed sets, I also have a few of the metal miniatures for Dungeon Saga, like this one.  Not the greatest casts… very ‘soft’ details and porous metal at places.

I do like the pose a lot on this one, though.

Not totally happy with this one, but I’ll leave it as it is, for now.

The set comes with two of these Zombie Trolls, and I have at least one more from one of the expansions. Probably will paint those with different colours.

This is a tricky one. I like the model, specially the pose, but the hair feels a bit weird. Maybe its the thickness or something.

 

Again, trying the glow effect thing but its not quite there yet. The robes on this model are not as dark as the shades, so its not working as well I think.

Glowing Shades

For the Shades I wanted to try somethin a bit different. They are called Shades, so I guess they are supposed to look dark, but painting them just black would make them look a bit like fabric I though, and I think of these more ethereal and ghost like. So I thought of make them glow from the inside near the ground.

 

I made one glow a redish purple with the cloth highlighted with greens.

I considered doing the same effect on the rest of the, errm, inside parts (inside of the hood, for instance) but I kind of like the way it looks this way, just pitch black.

 

Glowing Shades

The set comes with two models so, to make them different, I paint the second one with the same colours but the other one the other way around: green glow and purple(ish) highlights.

The doors are one of the cool things of the set. Its one of those things that makes a dungeon look really nice, instead  of using tokens or just card ones.

I completed one of the large ones, and this is the sort of look I want all the others to have. Some of them I want to look like magic ones, maybe with runes or glyphs, or even glow effects. Not sure yet.

Also managed to do half of the smaller ones, just need to detail the stone parts a bit more, I think.

The ground bit on all of these will change once I figure out what I want to do with it.

Again with this one, I kept the blue and black theme I used in the Zombie warrior, the idea being that they were all part of the same army and were brought back by necromantic shenanigans.

Though thing on this one was to get him to stand straight… and keep that way.

Nothing fancy, just some walking bones with a nasty looking weapon.

I’ll rust the scythe a bit, adding some orange and browns that will make it stand a bit more.

The rest in the set will be painted the same way. Again, some piles of bones, skulls or arrows will do the job to make them look different.
