This character comes from the tribes but he's taken up adventuring for reasons best known to himself. Maybe it's the impressive amount of gold you can acquire by slaying monsters and raiding tombs in the jungle. He was painted mostly with Contrast paints and because of the funny angle of his pose is really hard to take a suitable photograph of!
This dwarf has a wandering spirit that has taken him far from his mountain home. This was one of the best characters I've ever had the pleasure of painting - an absolutely stunning model packed with character and beautifully proportioned. I definitely want to get one for myself at some point. While a lot of people like dynamic poses of the jungle barbarian above I'm a big fan of more static, classic poses like this dwarf. Like the above, he was painted mostly with Contrast paints, which are great for browns. I think I mentioned this before but if you want to paint wood, leather, or anything that calls for a lot of different brown tones, then Contrast is a great tool to have.
I decided to work on my non-metallic metal for both of these guys. I used contrast paints for the gold but the steel was ordinary brushwork, and is my favourite NMM silvery metal I've ever done. I'm especially proud of the barbarian's sword and can't wait to do some more!
Anyway, I hope you like them. And I hope the players whose characters these will represent like them too.
Until next time, happy painting!
