Scibor Time

     I really like Scibor minis, they have a good feel about them, and from the casts I've seen, they are of very good quality. Meeplemart has a LARGE selection of Scibor's stuff, so I got to look at almost the whole range while I was there one day.

Mutant Snail (Scibor Monstrous Miniatures)

I'm excited to show some work in progress, it's a bit of a teaser shot, I hope to have him finished this weekend (it's getting dark pretty early these days so there's no shortage of time to sit around and paint). There will of course be a better photo shoot then.

Frostgrave

     Well, the Meeplemart dump continues. Here is the Stone Construct, and the Necromancer. On the former I actually did some dry brushing! It's an amateur technique, but when you're doing rocks, it rocks!

Sometimes dry-brushing works...

My first attempt at OSL

     On the Necromancer I tried some object source lighting, my first attempt. It's a bit hard to see with the harsh lighting, but under more normal indoor lighting I think it looks pretty good. I'll do a group shot later in the week.

Frostgrave, Work in Progress

     I've been painting like I'm getting paid... Anyhow, here is some wip. It's yet another Frostgrave mini from Meeplemart. He's the Flesh Golem. I think he's pretty dope. I worked hard to try out every flesh tone that I had, with the hopes that it would really make him look like he's stitched together. In all I think it worked out. It also helped me learn just how many skin tones I have access to with the paints I have. I think my favorite part is the flack flesh on the face (his right, our left).

Frostgrave Flesh Golem

    The only par that I didn't do as well as I may have liked is his right hand. Since it only had 3 fingers, I thought I'd go for an Orc flesh. I've got some work to do there. Once he's all done, along with his buddies I'll do a group photo.

Frostgrave Pt. 2

    Frostgrave. Here's the minor demon I picked up as part of my Meeplemart trip. He came out pretty all right, I think the base came out even better on this one than the last. Also, I like the hooves and horns.

The Frostgrave minor demon, he came with the Imp.

I've really got to get better lighting, the white balance is starting to drive me bonkers.

Frostgrave Time!!!

     Frostgrave time! I HAD to take a break from the terminators, it's just too hard to keep working on the same guys. Sooooo, I was in Canada, visited Toronto, and checked out Meeplemart down on Spadina Ave.

IT'S EPIC. Just get there, any way you can.

     They claim to be Canada's largest online game store and based on their insane levels of inventory, I don't think this is much of a stretch. If you're a mini painter out side of the Toronto area, you should probably check out the online store at Meeplemart. As a reputable company they allow you to buy miniatures from all over the place without worrying about shipping from random parts of the world. They ship to all of Canada for under $9, (say WHAT!!!).

     Anyhow, I picked up a whack a Frostgrave minis, which I'm super motivated to paint, partly because it's a nice change of pace, but also because they're all birthday gifts!!! Besides the Frostgrave miniatures, Meeplemart also has a huge selection of Scibor miniatures, so expect to see those when the Frostgrave stuff is done.

FGV302 Imp

Here's the first Frostgrave figure (part FGV302). He is sold as the "Imp". I based him up on a more normal sized base and added some rocks and snow to help set the scene. He's pretty small so I didn't get too worked up on the details, but I think he's ready for the gaming table.


Cheers,
