I figured that I would upload some of my painted stuff here.

These are not Empire minis, but they are Mantic fantasy minis and props from their boardgame Dungeon Saga. Since they are made out of boardgame plastic (probably PVC) the details are not too great, but I like their composition and it's fun to paint something very basic for a change. I think I will use some of these in Frostgrave.

I'm not a fan of Mantic's models, but these undead look ok.

Your painting is great, I really like how you have done the dungeon props  :::cheers:::

Thanks, man. I funded the kickstarter with them because I wanted a bunch of generic fantasy minis that didn't require gluing. They are pretty rough, but I try to bring out the best from them. I had to paint all the details on the book spines on my own.

Looking good! I backed the KS for Dungeon Saga too, more for the game in my case but it's nice to see the minis paint up okay if I ever fancy it.  :icon_smile:

Those look nice. Is Dungeon Saga a pretty good game?

Really nice work. I like the furniture and bookshelf especially. Would love to have a library/study that had that look at home :)
The painted figures look very cool - first 3 from the left especially.
You make the green stuff look easy. I don't have a lot of skill in the freehand sculpting.

Thanks. A lot of the greenstuff detailes are actually made using a reusable press mold material called Magic Mold.

Current WIP painting. Lighting is daylight, so the paintjob looks a bit worse than it is. I will take better pictures when I get home.

So I decided to paint the free Slaughterpriest that came with the White Dwarf. I'm somewhat pleased with how it came out. I wanted the colours to look as grounded as possible and I also didn't like how the sword looked in metal, so I decided to have it look like it was carved out of bone.










I also need to build a proper light box.

Holy crap Ursa!  Looks great. Bone sword a great idea. Reminds me of Steven Erikson's T'lan Imass Warriors.
Almost makes me want a chaos figure (gasp)

That guy looks fantastic. The detail on his chest and flesh is great.

I have been painting miniatures from the Conan boardgame by Monolith. I rather liked painting the Bone Golem a lot. It has a silly pose, but I grew fond of it rather fast.

Very cool. Great painting of the swamp monster!
