Catrina Skeleton UnD-03 by Morgue Miniatures

Well what can I say ? I can't be unbiased because this is one of the miniatures that is produced by my tiny cottage miniatures business that is run by myself and my lovely wife. Obviously I had to paint her, so to emphasize the amazing sculpt by Mr Paul Muller. Fantastic miniature with amazing detail.



Dress was painted using:
  1. Citadel Necron Abyss Blue - basecoat.
  2. Citadel Asurmen Blue - wash/shade.
  3. Citadel Necron Abyss Blue + Citadel Mordian Blue - Layer.
  4. Citadel Mordian Blue - Highlight layer.
  5. Then airbrushed lower section of dress with Scalecolor SC33 Sunset Purple.
  6. Citadel Leviathan Purple - wash/shade.
  7. Scalecolor SC33 Sunset Purple - Layer.
  8. Scalecolor SC33 Sunset Purple + white - Highlight Layer.
Some of the flowers on the dress were painted:
  1. Vallejo Model Colour 70.966 Turquoise + Vallejo Game Colour 72.026 Jade Green.
  2. White was added to the above colour for highlights.

Temple of Elemental Evil Board Game Gnolls

Temple of Elemental Evil Board Game Gnolls

Compared to the pants sculpts of the water cult warriors, these sculpts of gnolls are awesome. Like the size and must say one of the best representations of gnolls in the miniature market, to date. Real pleasure to paint these guys.



Thought I'd shown you their behinds as well as the typical front.
Again I painted them slightly different for playing purposes, since the sculpts are exactly the same. So rusty armour for one and different hair colours for all 3, though stuck with the same overall grey fur.

Talking about fur, here is the colour and paints used for the dirty grey fur based on the Citadel Colour app 'Dirty Grey':
  1. Citadel Skavenblight Dinge - Basecoat.
  2. Citadel Agrax Earthshade - Shade/ wash.
  3. Citadel Stormvermin Fur - layer/ fine lined.
  4. Citadel Stormvermin Fur + a touch of white for a slightly lighter colour - edge highlight/ top layer.
For the arm and lower leg bandaging:
  1. Citadel Rakarth Flesh - Basecoat.
  2. Citadel Agrax Earthshade - Shade/ wash.
  3. Vallejo Model Colour 70.874 Tan Earth - just as edge highlight/ top layer. Leaving the shaded area.

Temple of Elemental Evil Board Game - Water Cultists Water Cult Warrior

Temple of Elemental Evil Board Game Water Cultist Warriors


Carrying on painting miniatures for my D&D campaign of ' Princes of the Apocalypse' and using miniatures from the Temple of Elemental Evil board game. It was time for the Water Cult, Water Cultist's warriors. Again I decided to paint each one slightly different and have different base terrain to denote them whilst playing. 


These miniatures weren't the best in terms of quality & sculpts, but they were perfect for representing Water Cultist 's Warriors as the official art from the campaign book, shown below.


The only noted paint colours used were for the shields and gloves:
  1. Vallejo Model Colour Red Leather 70.818 & Vallejo Model Colour Cavalry Brown 70.982 ( darker shield had more cavalry brown added).
  2. Citadel Reikland Fleshshade & Citadel Fuegan Orange shade/wash.
  3. Forgot & didn't note the highlight paints used.

WIZKIDS DEEP CUTS MINIATURES (WAVE 4) - PIRATES WAVE 4 73095

Wizkids Deep Cuts Miniatures - Pirates

Just loved these pirate miniatures really quiet characterful.


So for the pirate girl's skirt/ petticoat, I used the following color paint combination:
  1. Vallejo Model Colour German Cam Beige WWII 70.821  - basecoat.
  2. Citadel Agrax Earthshade - Shaded/washed.
  3. Vallejo Model Colour 70.986 Deck Tan.
  4. Vallejo Model Colour 70.986 Deck Tan & Vallejo Model Colour Ivory 70.918.
  5. Vallejo Model Colour Ivory 70.918 - Final Highlight.
