more miscellaneous characters for D&D

-

 took a break from painting the wild west miniatures and the buildings i recently got,
i spent the day finishing up some D&D miniatures for this
weekend's campaign finale.

since reading about the spellcasters of Thay in the D&D books,
i was always intrigued and wanted a small coven of wizards
based off of them.

kept with the theme of red robes of sorts and using what would look
like evil looking miniatures,
i picked a tiefling sorcerer to be my leader and also the main villain of
my campaign.


most likely i'll add more to this group as time goes on.



the miniature i used was a Wizkids Frameworks miniature.
a little pricey but they look nice once built and painted.


confronting a spirit of an equally venomous wizard,
the archmage leads the group of necromancers into a battle of wits
with the flameskull.


a death knight from Wizkids.
finally found a leader for all my skeletons.
i almost want to get another set of skeletons just to create a fairly size horde
of bones and weapons.

was gonna add some skulls and such on his base but decided not to.


a regiment of bones and their leader.


another dwarf for the clan.



and recently i bought yet another pack of dwarves.
this particular fellow was holding a 2h mace but it was warped,
so i clipped it off and replaced the hands with a sword and shield.


a fearless group of dwarves stumbles across a half ogre,
time to show him who's boss!

    Terrific collection of figures. I especially liked the death knight and can easily see why you'd have him as a leader of your skeletons (which look excellent too btw). Great paint-job on all of them though. Interesting to see someone buying from Wizkids Frameworks miniature range. They never seem to be touched at my local store and indeed have gone on sale this week - presumably to shift them. They're not GW plastic kit prices but I do feel they're pricey for what they are - so I'd be interested in your thoughts..?

      thank you very much.
      to be honest i only use the Wizkids Frameworks when i want to do a PC for a fellow player in our D&D group or a special character for a campaign. i did break down and get the orc set last year and have yet to paint them. i think its the variety of options is what i like about Frameworks but the cost is a major party pooper.

legion of undead

still plugging away at the mess of undead miniatures i still have. these skeletons are from the Undead Encounter pack from Mantic Games. i went with a simple color scheme, i didn't want to spend a lot of time on them. the so called leader of the group. with the simple color and shading these came out nicely. i might go back and retouch the eyes, maybe add a green glow or redness in the eye sockets. rest of the group. way these came out i might purchase another pack of these, add more to the more ranks. Beholder Zombie. this fellow was fun to paint. cannot wait to unleash this on my D&D group. (insert evil laugh here) Crawling Claws. wanted to make some low CR creatures for this weekend's game, and since the group is heading to a den of evil what better way than this. made from dismembered hands from an old GW zombie plastic set. last year i came across some board games called Dark World, and the miniatures were pretty cool to use elsewhere in my table top games. so i used t...

for the Lord of Wolf, for Russ!

ever since my last game of 40k Kill Team with my buddy Jayson, i've been thinking on a second team for the game. lots of ideas were swirling in my head. and i narrowed it down to the faction i always wanted ever since i first started playing 40k back in 2nd edition. the honorable and ferocious Space Wolves. with all the new material coming out for 9th edition and what has been out already i have to say i am disappointed on how much character the new Primaris space marines lack. i mean yeah there's the upgrade packs you could get but still there isn't much to separate one group of Primaris marines from another of a different chapter except shoulder pads. so deciding on this i went with the classic look of the Space Wolves. but with that also there is only a few units and not much i can use if i do a non-Primaris Kill Team. and with these marine i also tried the Citadel Colour Contrast paints. and i have to say i like them very much. very easy...
