Dreamblade Re-Paint

The last couple days I have not felt like painting much of anything. I don't want to work on any big projects right now, and so I dug into that magic box of abandoned projects (a shoebox in my basement) and found a neat Dreamblade pre-painted plastic mini I had re-based a while back. As you'll soon see, he's a fat miniature, and there are not enough of those, IMHO. My buddy Rico from Play Unplugged would agree, as he too is a big booster of the fat mini.

Anyway, I hit this guy with some clear coat and then re-painted him tonight. I figure I will use him as Bugbear named character for an RPG, or maybe in a Song of Blades and Heroes band. Check him out:







The "fanny-pack" in the above shot is from a set of 54mm resin accessories for U.S. WWII grunts. He can fit several brown-bag lunches in there!



And here's a comp shot for some scale:



The mini he's menacing is a D&D Metal Jozan I converted a couple years ago for a D&D game.

It's funny, when I sat down at the bench tonight I was totally unmotivated to do anything, but with a bit of effort, I dug this guy out, and as I painted him, my enthusiasm level skyrocketed! Sometimes it just takes a little curve ball to get the juices flowing again. Now I am eager to use him in a game, and so it goes...

Thanks for checking out the blog!
