Caryth the Darkelf (Freebooter) and Borax Bloodaxe, one of the eight Dwarf Lords of Legend! These are the last two miniatures painted in 2013. More next year. Happy holidays!

| An unlikely duo! |

| The detail on this miniature is amazing. |
Caryth came in three parts and has plenty of detail on such a tiny frame. I developed a new technique for her blades: blue steel. The original base was square, so I borrowed an old idea from another Dwarf Lord of Legend and gave her an Orc's head to rest her foot on. First time using Green Stuff. I usually Tamiya Epoxy Putty. A little different in texture but it came out just fine.

Neat. I like Corax in particular. What did you use for blood?
ReplyDeleteI use Tamiya Clear Red. It's very good for achieving a fresh, wet look. My pot is over twenty years old and still has plenty of paint left.
ReplyDeleteNice work on the both of them. I know the dwarf, and was going to ask where the elf is from, but I see she is one of Werner's figures. Are they destined for the display shelf, or gaming as well?
ReplyDeleteThe Elf was a present for my 40th and it took a year before I painted her. I guess I was waiting for inspiration. The display shelf is in the gaming room, so they'll both see action soon enough! I have a few more Dwarf Lords to paint. They are less fiddly and have plenty of character.
