This is my first completed mini boss for Super Dungeon Explore. As it happens, I finished it on my partner and my anniversary so I decided to do a little Easter Egg on him as an anniversary tribute. See if you can spot it! The complete Forgotten King set (all 58)
I left the Huntress to last as I was not sure what colours to paint her. In the end I decided to paint her based on a My Little Pony my sister had when she was a kid (well.. she may still have it). It was a white pony with wings and purple mane. I […]
Well… overall I think Super Dungeon Explore minis are relatively fast to paint, but not this lady. I had problems with her cloak and only after getting that done did I realise how many potions she is carrying around! Anyway she is done and I am happy with her. All the Forgotten Heroes Together And […]
I’ve mentioned this before, but one of the things I love about the Super Dungeon Explore Miniatures is that they are relatively easy and fast to paint. The Questing Knight is a prime example of that. I am happy with the end result, but it feels like I’ve cheated as he didn’t take that long […]
The pet wonders were super fun to paint. I love how fast it is to paint these Chibi models compared to high detailed minis normally found for wargames. Don’t get me wrong: I love painting high-detailed minis too, but these minis are a nice break. Madam Hilde, Miss G. Snorts and The Colonel I actually […]
While Princess Emerald was the first “chibi” style miniature I’ve ever painted and I did find it challenging as she was very different to paint that the high-quality, detailed wargaming miniatures I normally paint, I did find find painting the Royal Warden a whole lot easier as I was building on what I have learned. […]
My first ever attempt at painting a “Chibi” style miniature. Challenging with the lower quality miniature combined with the large flat areas. Eyes where a challenge too. Thanks to Stuart Culshaw on the Super Dungeon Explore UK Facebook group for pointing me towards Aella13’s youtube videos. It led me to several great tutorials listed here: […]
Not much to say about Percival other than she did not take a long time to paint so I feel I’ve kinda cheated as I am happy with the end result. I do like non-metallic metal painting style, but there is something to be said for the spread of which you can make armour look […]
While I wasn’t too satisfied with the Manhunter result, I am actually very pleased with this Order Knight Pinup. I can feel I am starting to get the hang of uzing glazes for shades and highlights. Far from perfect, but I am starting to understand the logic. The one thing, which was new and that […]
Ok, I bet get out of the way that I’m not 100% happy with this paint job. It was always going to be a tough one as I’m really happy with The Lion Knight. I repainted the skin 3 times over. I tried to paint Russian style tattoo of the pattern logo and failed. His eyes […]
This is my first painted Kingdom Death: Monster miniature. I am quite happy with the result. It is also the first time I’ve used glazes both for shadow, for highlight and to mute contrast (inside the cape). And first time painting skin on semi-nude female models. That was much more difficult than I thought. It […]
Those of you who follow me on Twitter will have seen the progress of this project turning a Model Kit into custom “asteroids” for X-Wing Miniatures. There;’s a “How I did it” at the end of this article, but first… The Finished result! How I did it – The beginning I’ve […]
