Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

[Simon The Hunter]

Not a mini but had fun printing and painting (pure drybrush over black print and a dark wash to tone down the brightness for the helm, gold and some flesh wash and bright gold stipple for the base) this Sauron Helm

It's fun to work in different scales. I painted my first bust last year and half a plastic model kit of Mothman.

Did someone make a pagoda big enough for a mech tea party?

And I’m finished. I need to find a new Matt finish. This Mr. Super Clear Matte is too shiny.

Looks great, but yeah I can see where the finish is shiny, weird for a matt finish...

Tonight's batch. These are the first ones I've done since I bought a bunch of additional speed paint colors so still trying to figure out what I have to work with now. I did feel brave and followed Minsc's advice to go for the eyes on one and yeah...we'll save that for another time. I need to get some varnish next, not only to preserve the paint jobs but also so I can try layering on things like the fire effect.

These were all primed white. When I prime my next batch I think I'm going to go with the black prime/white drybrush.

Oh, one last note, I must not have used enough plastic glue when I glued them to their bases a few weeks ago, I had two pop off midst painting and had to re-glue them.
