They'll be on the table exactly as long as the dice will allow. Their job is to get shot at by better painted miniatures. The paint job on these figures won't win any awards - I didn't post any close up photos for a reason - but that wasn't the goal. This was a quick and dirty project, after all. I might have gone overboard, but I don't feel that it worth the effort to go back and fix. The intent was to produce a dirty, oily appearance and fill in the recessed details. This mix was simply brushed over all surfaces and left to dry.Ĭitadel Colour Chaos Black diluted with water brushed over the bases. I used a mix of blue-gray wash I had left over from a previous project with a few drops of Reaper 09074 Deep Amethyst to tie it in better with the other colors.

I mixed the remaining Oiled Leather, Palomino Gold, and a drop of Citadel Colour Skull White to produce a pale skin tone for the figure I left with brown hair. One figure's hair was painted Reaper 09074 Palomino Gold while the other was left as is. I started by coating the exposed heads with Reaper 09110 Oiled Leather. The previous dry brush layers covered up the visors, so I picked them out with a darker blue. Used to provide some variation on the otherwise all blue color scheme. This used standard dry brushing techniques to produce a highlight layer aligned with how light would hit the figures from above.Ĭitadel Colour Codex Grey. Reaper 09057 Ashen Blue mixed with Citadel Colour Skull White. This resulted in a heavy layer while leaving some Deep Amethyst still showing in the recesses. I left much more paint on the brush than I normally would when dry brushing. Simply gluing the integral bases to previously spray primed fender washers and painting them later would be enough. I didn't bother with adding sand of other material to the bases. Reaper 09079 Deep Amethyst was mixed with FolkArt Glass & Tile Medium for priming. I fell back on my usual approach for Bones plastic for the most part. I used quick and dirty methods to get them ready for the table - lots of dry brushing and washes. Individually painting every detail seemed to be overkill. These are intended to be used as a group against "hero" figures. They will also be handy as opposition in near-future role playing games. I painted them up for Five Parsecs From Home as corporate security, planetary militia, local police, etc. The Nova Corp represents some kinda cyberpunk megacorp security force. The sculpts are also available in metal as singles as part of the Chronoscope line. The Guard, Soldier, Female, and Rifleman are all available from Reaper in sets of three. SKU, name, and quantity of each miniature: I'm not sure how I ended up with a total of nine, but I understand that this happened to many backers.Įxpendable, not all that bright, and destined to be shot at. I was supposed to receive one of each miniature, for a total of five. These are another backer reward from the first Reaper Bones Kickstarter.
