Hey all, a quick and easy one this time, just a palette cleanser to remind me howfun and pleasant those old citadel models are, after painting bulks or big models, this one felt so refreshing !
So if you're familiar with the model (I admit I wasn't until it got into my hands ), this is a scout from teh fantasy adventurers range.

I couldn't help but change it a bit to make her a little special, nothing spectacular but just enough to make her a little wilder
Those old metal models paint themselves, I just chose neutral colours, something not to eye catching for a scout without making her too invisible in case I ever play her.
Yeah, I know you're evil and all, but err... the smell... |
Anyway, hope you liked it and happy painting to you !
wow, I love the character in these old minis. They just look so much better than the modern plastic ones that seem to need loads of detail to achieve the same wow factor as these simpler models
ReplyDeleteThey're a completely different thing for me, both have their merits but I find old lead relaxing and "comfy", for RPG characters, I also love how relatable they are
DeleteLooks like an Aly Morrison sculpt! Perhaps she could be the start of a Rangers of Shadow Deep party?
ReplyDeleteCould be, I would be tempted to say one of the Perrys because of the face, she would be perfect for RoSD indeed !
DeleteOh, I didn't remember the mini, but what a lovely job you've done here. The green stuff fringe is a total win!
ReplyDeleteDon't know if I had ever seen it before getting it in hand but that's like finding a little treasure !
DeleteI really like these simpler models: they're easier to look at than a lot of modern miniatures. Really nice paint job too. I like her wary expression!
ReplyDeleteThey definitely are more to the point while still having many little surprises when you come to paint them, that's what I like the most about them.
Deleteje ne connaissais pas ce modèle ! peinture simple et de bon goût.
ReplyDeletePareil, on croit être calé et il reste des figs sur lesquelles on s'est pas attardé malgré 350 lectures des catalogues
DeleteOh, this is great - what beautiful, subtle painting on a fantastic sculpt. The tiny conversion really makes the mini pop, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, It's really made me want to find others like her ! I reckon there are tons of models I've overlooked, not seeing the true potential from the catalogue pages
