Common butcher or butcher of commoners?
Bearded miniature wearing a dirty apron. He holds a meat cleaver in one hand and he grasps a sack slung over the opposite shoulder. He is covered in blood splatter.

Next project: Peggy from Moonstone. I’m not sure what scale Moonstone minis are, 25mm true scale maybe?

Snapped off the sword while scraping mold lines. Too small to pin, so reattached with dot of glue and a prayer.

Finished Vizzik today. He was a lot of fun, but I am definitely ready to paint something smaller 😂

Made good progress on Vizzik over the weekend (his body finally has a head!). A lot left to do, but the finish line is in sight.

Think my favorite part are the two rats bickering over who sits on top of the staff 😂
Miniature of a demonic horned rat holding a staff. Two rats fussing over the top of the staff. The lower rat looks particularly upset, while the upper one smugly gazes down.

Model of Vizzek Scour. Large humanoid rat holding a staff and standing atop rubble. He’s also missing his head ( I’m painting it in a subassembly).

Ugly phase engaged!

But, I mean, they’re reanimated amalgamations of bone. Ugly is a given ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#Relicblade
#miniaturepainting
#nerdlings
Monster composed of mismatched bones. It has one large arm ending in a serrated skeletal blade. It stands on four legs attached to two pelvises, and appears to lumber in a crab-like fashion.

Back on my #Relicblade kick after taking a few weeks off to paint that Kimera model.
#nerdlings
#miniaturepainting
Bone and Darkness faction set consisting of a large bone construct and three smaller warriors. All are creepy magical amalgamations of bones from various creatures.

Thank you! Played our first real game Sunday. My wife tabled me on turn three! We had fun, though 🙂

Poor cats were so confused as to what we were doing.

Here are the finished group pictures of the #Relicblade minis I painted over the last month or so.

Love these little minis! So much fun to paint! Looking forward to getting in a few games this weekend.

Because it’s Thanksgiving, throwback to that time I painted a turkey and…a murder leprechaun? 😂

Mini was from #ReaperMiniatures a few years ago.

Pilgrim that looks suspiciously like a leprechaun. He’s holding a blunderbuss, has a deranged smile, and he’s riding a turkey.

Almost finished with the wood elf witch from the #Relicblade starter box. Just waiting on the PVA to dry before painting the base.

Built up too much texture on her cheeks, but she’ll be fine at arms length on the tabletop.

#miniaturePainting

Elf witch with purple hair and wearing a jade dress. She has one hand raised as if casting a spell, and she’s holding a dagger in the other hand.

Finished the slayer squid today. Also started on the wood elf witch.

Love these minis. Full of whimsy and a lot of fun to paint.

Squid miniature, looking quite insane, standing on 4 tentacles and holding blades in the other 4.

Finished retouching the skin on the Slayer Squid from Relicblade starter box. Still got the blades to paint.
Squid mini that looks surprisingly unchanged from the last pic I posted. Especially considering how much time I spent touching up his skin.

First #Relicblade mini, the Slayer Squid, is nearly finished. Just blades and base left, then some tidy ups.

Starting on the #Relicblade minis. Been a year or so since I painted something smaller than 32mm. “Gus” towers over them 😂

Took a lot longer than I expected…finished up Grumpy Gus last night.

Very happy with the results, especially the leather.
