The last miniatures for Dave

These are the last models I had to paint for Dave, a little bit of a mix of stuff, but I'll make a single post with everything together.

First we have a selection of Silver Bayonet figures. I told Dave long ago that I would never paint Napoleonics, but I guess these don't really count, so I agreed to paint a couple of bands and few monsters for him.

He wanted these to be nice, so I went with full highlights on them.

Next up we have the Warlord Games special figure for their Hail Caesar Samurai new(ish) book.

And lastly, I painted a few Warhammer Man'o'War Dark Elf ships for him as a goodbye present.

More Flames of War Italians

 Today I have some Italian WWII troops, bersaglieri and infantry with heavy weapons.

I painted these for Dave, as you can guess from the trend of posts, him and Dennis are playing WWII North African games and I'm painting axis forces for both of them.

A big project done

 It's done, Max's Reaper Bones V kickstarter set is all painted. It took me an age and a half, but I'm finally done, even with most of the figures painted with dipping, it still took a long time, but it's great to have this big collection available for our D&D games.

If I had to give a suggestion to anyone who wanted to start getting miniatures for D&D or other fantasy RPG, definitely go for a Reaper Bones kickstarter, it might take a long time to get delivered, but for a very fair price you would end up with a ton of stuff to represent PCs, NPSc and all sort of monsters and small terrain pieces.

Over the couple of years it took me to paint them all, we used these figures so much, some of them were even used for Warhammer games. They are cheap, easy to paint and still great quality figures, if I didn't already have way too many figures still to paint I would definitely consider this kind of investment.

But on to the figures, as usual, I saved some good stuff for last, a whole bunch of undead, all very cool models, I did what I needed with dipping, but anything that was going to be mostly black was done with washes and drybrush.
