Hello! Despite best intentions, life tends to get in the way sometimes and I haven’t worked on the Scythe minis since my last post.
But! At long last I did pick up my brushes again recently, this time for a new commission.
As I mentioned in August, I got some new basing materials from Huge Miniatures and I’m just absolutely loving them. They are really easy to use and they just pop.
These will be winging their way toward their new owner tomorrow. 😊
I recently got the board game Scythe which, if you have played the game, you know comes with a bunch of unpainted minis.
I figured having these minis remain unpainted would be a bad look for someone who paints minis as their passion, so I started in on them.
So far I’ve got the Nordic Kingdoms done and the Rusviet Union mostly done (they need to be based).
The sharp-eyed among you will note the bases on the Nordic Kingdoms are a vast improvement over my past bases, and that is because I got a bunch of new basing materials from Huge Miniatures. I am absolutely loving them. Some of the new materials I got and used here include texture paste, scenery highlight, 4-in-1 scatter flock, static grass flock. static grass tufts, and flower tufts. I really can’t recommend them enough – they’re easy to use and are pretty foolproof (and no, I don’t get commission, lol).
I recently painted minis for my brother and his wife for Christmas (a dragonborn sorcerer and a half-elf bard). While I was going through the process, I figured I’d take some step-by-step photos of how I git ‘er done.
First off, the finished pieces:

I intend to update all of the photos with higher quality photos at some point, but this should give you an idea of what I love to do.
Feel free to email me with any questions!
Athyra is another mini I painted for a friend, and I was happy to oblige her request for purple armor. I was especially pleased with how her face came out.
I painted S’rah for one of my friends, and she is hands down one of my favorite minis. I love love love the leaf detail on the front of her armor, and she’s just so darn *pretty*.
This lovely lady was a practice piece I did just for the fun of it. She really allowed me to get some good detail and shading practice. I adore the way her book turned out.
Beruzz was one of my more complicated early endeavors. He required a lot of detail work, and gave me the chance to really practice using my teeeeeeeeeny tiiiiiiiiiny brushes (look at those rivets!).
