Bones: Giants of the Storm Clouds

In the first Bones kickstarter Reaper made several pairs of Giants. This pair was labeled as Storm Giants at the time. For some reason, the female is quite a lot smaller than the male. Say what you will, they certainly are giant sized when compared with humans! I chose to paint them as […]

The Others: 7 Sins: The Doctors of Corruption

The last set of Acolytes! Doctors and nurses that want to “heal” you by making you grow tentacles… For some reason, most of the pictures were a bit blurry, so they went in the bin. No point in posting them at any rate. Corrupted Doctors acolytes from The Others: 7 Sins boardgame, […]

Random Bones: Flesh Golem

The second of the day’s random bones is the Flesh Golem from the third kickstarter. Basically your Frankenstein’s Monster. There was a flesh golem in the first kickstarter as well, but this one is larger, fatter and he has got technological bits sticking out here and there. I painted the different parts in several […]

Random Bones: Dragonman Warrior

Next randomly grabbed mini is the Dragonman Warrior from the first Bones kickstarter. This one suffers a bit from the softer Bones material used on the earlier Bones. The details are a bit soft, especially around the mouth and face in general. The scales are not all as marked as they might have been. The […]

Kill Team Rogue Trader: The Elucidian Starstriders

At long last, the other half of the Kill Team: Rogue Trader box: The actual Rogue Trader and her retinue. I went for a House Atreides look to the uniforms (Green with red and gold trim, inspired by the production design of the 1984 David Lynch Dune movie, which I am sure also has […]

The Others: 7 Sins: The Hobo Acolytes

I am slowly pushing towards the goal of finishing the rest of the minis from The Others: 7 SIns boardgame (“only” 3 sins avatars and their sets of 6 abominations each, plus two sets of acolytes left to do!) Did I say two sets of 6 acolytes left? Hobos! When the Sins stalk the […]

Random Bones: Snakeman Warrior

The second mini I grabbed together with Ingrid is this Snakeman. I have always found the concept of snakemen, with the heads, bodies and undercarriages of snakes, but arms like men, to be a bit of an evolutionary fluke. How exactly did these evolve? Of course, the answer is as always “magic” or “don’t ask, […]

Random Bones: Ingrid, Female Viking

I seem to have rather alot of unpainted Bones left from the three first massive kickstarter campaigns, and a shipment with the bits from the fourth KS picked and packed and underweigh in a container bound for Europe as I write this. Which means that there will soonish be more Bones. Oh yes there will. […]

The Ghosts of Midlam Manor: Kasperov

Midlam Miniatures is a small company that has run several kickstarters for specific sets of metal miniatures. This one is from a set called “The Ghosts of Midlam Manor” and was for a set of 10 ghostly minis, back in early 2018. My experience with Midlam is very good, I have backed a few of […]

Oxidation Beasts: Bones and 3Dprinted

In D&D the Rust Monster is a threat to the Dungeoneers’ precious equipment by it’s ability to rapidly disintegrate into rust powder any metal items it comes near. Other than that, it is quite harmless. From the first Bones kickstarter, the “Oxidation Beast”, so named presumably because Rust Monster is trademarked. For some reason […]

Warhammer Underwear: The Chosen Axes

I have for the longest time been thinking on how to paint these. I knew I did not want to do them all in the official caucasian skin, orange hair that is so prevalent. Options for their look included a Dia de los Muertos or Calaveras de Azucar-style, Pictish blue daub, Voodoo-shadowman-black with painted skeleton on […]

Bones 2: Stone Giant

Just a random mini this time, the Stone Giant from the first expansion of the second Bones kickstarter from 2013. Stone Giants are the smallest of the giants, but still much larger than Conan. And have mothers milk that also can be used as spackle. 77336: Stone Giant sculpted by Jason Wiebe […]
