More of the Frost Haven commission.

 More than a year ago, I had a commission to paint up the Frost Haven miniatures.

I was asked to put the 'extended' characters back into their storage boxes (so that the players could not see them) and the game players could play out the game and see these minis as they came out during the course of play.

I agreed not to share my brush works here until a year had passed.

since I find a good little opening here to share these images now, so you get to see them



the whole group

started with the ending of the first grouping
(left of the image)


unpainted

zenithal base coat

zenithal system attempts to get the
highlight process started with the base layer

main colors now present

I based my painting on some images I
found online about the game and
a general impression of the miniature

none of the data I had about these
minis was detailed about color schemes

Here they are with the final coating
having been applied

the group finished

single shots of the minis:








fire or ice seemed to be a common theme


some were just amazing pieces that drew my attention
and I wanted to do them up well





I did up some of the flocking a bit more fantasy also












with this one I ground up some white crystal
material I had to make the ice more dynamic in the flocking





a behemoth miniature that I wanted to bring life to
with the mixed hair and scales presentation

Continuing with First Responder training, final stages have been done.  Now the government exams get to be dealt with.

Meaning that I still will not likely have much tabletop action to report about for a while.

Great stuff Murdock. Good luck with the first responder exams - I am sure you will knock it out of the park.
