Blighted Nyss Warlord and Fyanna, Torment of Everblight

I’ve finished a couple of Legion models recently. The Blighted Nyss Warlord was painted as part of my latest collaboration video.

Rithali-in and Sister Celenia

I finished another couple of models from Raging Heroes. These models are not currently available, I have early access for backing their Kickstarter campaign.

Rithali-in

I’m a little unhappy with how I handled Rithali-in. Firstly, I dropped her while painting her and I lost her hand and the tip of her whip. I managed to replace the hand with a spare but I’m so annoyed with myself. Also I’m unhappy with the armour. The highlighting looked fine initially, but then I glossed it to make it look like PVC and now it looks kinda flat. Finally after looking at some of the renders of the model I think she’s supposed to be wearing a mask! I couldn’t tell from the model…

Sister Celenia

Sister Celenia was a quick colour scheme test. I wanted her to match my old Sisters of Battle but I painted them so long ago that the colours I used no longer exist. I think it’s close but I’ll brighten the purple armour next time.

Patreon

In the interest of making better videos, I’ve invested in a few upgrades over the past year (none of which have been cheap!).

In hopes of offsetting these costs I’ve started a Patreon account. It would mean a lot to me if you would consider supporting me, but don’t worry, I’ll continue to upload content regardless!

Support me at Patreon here.

Thank you!

Dungeons and Dragons (5th Ed) Character: Kuori

I’ve been playing D&D with the same group for several years now. We retired our old characters when 4th Ed ended and that’s when I created Kuori. She is a custom race (using the Goliath rules) invented by our GM during our previous campaign (now set 30 years ago). Her kin are basically a dying tribal people descended from Frost Giants.

When I first started playing her, Kuori was true to her tribal roots. Even though she is a fighter, I wanted a model that looked like a barbarian. I ended up converting Reaper Miniatures’ Nadezhda the White, Ice Sorceress by turning her staff into a maul. I painted this model over two years ago.

She ended up dying to save the party and I switched characters for a bit, but unbeknownst to the other players, the GM and I had plans to return her. When Kuori returned she had abandoned the old furs and hunting trophies of her people and adopted full plate armour so I wanted a new mini to represent her. I ended up using another Reaper mini, Rasia, w/Spiked Chain, although the mini is a bit shorter so I based her on a pile of tall rocks. I painted her in only a couple of hours.

Kaelly the Nether Strider, Wandering Minstrel, Kinoshrooms, Claw Trainers and Ser Sharpclaw

I’ve gone a bit crazy painting Super Dungeon Explore lately. This time of year is normally when my painter’s block/apathy kicks in, but this year I seem to be in overdrive!

First up is Kaelly the Nether Strider, whose hero version the Nether Assassin is quickly becoming one of my favourites. Her potion is a lifesaver!

Next is the Wandering Minstrel. I’m actually using him as a tank; he generates a ton of wrath with his potion and supportive actions and by loading him up with Dex equipment he can dodge out of harm’s way.

Wandering Minstrel

I’ve started painting minions from the Emerald Valley set. First up are the Kinoshrooms.

Finally I’ve finished the Claw Trainers

And Ser Sharpclaw from the Claw of the Wyrm warband.

Ser Sharpclaw

I converted him by adding reins.
