More Bones D&D figures

I'm almost at the end of Max's giant Reaper Bones V kickstarter.

I started painting some of his figures that we needed for Warhammer games, then few for D&D, until I finally decided that I might as well paint the whole set of 150ish figures so that whenever we needed some for a game I would have them ready.

I went for a very simple and quick dipping method, that way I could have a high output and get them done without too much fuss.

This is the before last batch of figures for this project, the last one will be completed in a couple of weeks and it will be a more themed batch, you will see.

Romans and other ancients

 This week I have some historical figures for you, some Republican Roman legionaries and a handful of Thracian light infantry.

I did them all with a quick dipping, but I painted the Roman shields in a traditional way to make them look better, as usual, they are good for the table and look nice all lined up.

Giant Wyvern

 This is a Reaper Bones giant Wyvern that I painted for Doyle for his birthday. I started this "tradition" quite a few years ago, when it is some friend's birthday, I offer to paint some figures for them, from their pile of shame, instead of buying them more figures that will probably never get painted, I think it feels better to have some of their own pile done and out of the way, we all have figures we would really like to paint, but never get around to...

A winter Troll unit

 this is the latest unit I finished for Dave, some trollblood pyg lookouts, the snowman camouflage guy is obviously the most interesting one, but in general they are a nice little unit.

Hordes Trollkin troops

 First post of 2025 with stuff painted in 2024. These are two units of Trollkin that I painted for Dave at the end of 2024.

They are dipped, so nothing special here, but they still look nice on the tabletop.
