Had a few hours spare here and there this week. So got my first Burrow's and Badger's figure finished. They are really nice to paint plenty of detail yet simple enough to do without any fiddly bits. I have decided to name this one Tobias and he is a Mouse Ranger.
The base was my usual putty method painted Gorthor brown, washed in strong tone ink then once the figure was finished and varnished. I added some Coarse Flock, Winter tuft and some Clump Foliage. I tried to place it so it looked like he was tracking or sneaking through.

The next two characters are also wip this time the two Pirate themed Shrew's not sure what to do with the female ones jacket and top as yet. Once fully basecoated will begin the shading washes.
The model looks very good and a terrific paint job as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Clint. The details are really eas to pick out. Lovely figures to paint.
DeleteAwesome stuff Mr Quinton, Sir, great looking ranger :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers dude! One of my fave sculpts.
DeleteFantastic work, Simon. What a cool mini.
ReplyDeleteThank you Bryan it really is I am loving the fact that they are all single piece as well.
DeleteCute and superb, great job!
ReplyDeleteCheers Phil. Cute indeed he is!
DeleteThe mouse looks great, especially where you photographed it, lots of atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteGreat start on the shrew's for the jacket you could do rich bold colours, reds blues yellows or if their not very good at being pirates, very muted colours, greens or browns
Thank you Dave. Yeah I need to sort out some lighting and background. I am experimenting in locations around the garden.
DeleteI wen for reds in the end and a cream/tan for the coat. I have gone for stripes on the trousers. Got to do highlights and some drybrushing in the next session. Hopefully they will be done in one more maybe two.
I must admit to you that I am enchanted!
ReplyDeleteThey are a very enchanting range. I am onto the third Redwall book in two weeks and enjoying those immensely as well

DeleteNot only is the ranger well painted ... the base complements him very well too!
