76. Custom Paintjob: Mice and Mystics part 10. The and back again... a mouses tail... (Project Complete).

A couple of posts ago I mentioned that I'd finished the custom paint job on my Mice & Mystics (by Plaid Hat Games) set.
I know I've posted these piecemeal over the course of about a year?
But I thought you'd appreciate them all in one place, to admire more readily at your leisure!

Before that I'd like to say some things.

If you've followed this project form the begging, thank you!
Watching my view count creep higher and higher has always drove me forward.... when I've thought about quitting the thought that someone out there is semi interested gave me a little push to carry on.
If you are new here, I also thank you!
Thanks all round; for taking some time out of your day to read some pointless words, and check out some models by some dude on the internet.


So without further adieu...


The good guys!

74. Custom Paintjob: Mice and Mystics part 9. Roaches to Riches.


Continuing on that Mice and Mystics hype...

I've finished the rest of the cockroaches that I didn't get to finish the first time around




041

They started out scorched brown with a highlight of dark flesh, then washed back down with a dark brown wash.
From there it was a cash of progressively highlighting with Dark flesh adding vermin brown with each layer.
A Flesh shading was was applied afterwards before being finished off with a final highlight of vomit brown.
And that's it

Yeah!
That's all the bad guys done, and all the good guys done!

Woo!

I'll post a picture of the complete set (hopefully in action), to round off the post count to 10 for this series.
In the end I had a decent time painting them, despite the shoddy plastic the miniature are made from.


If you want to add some constructive criticism or have and other feedback/ questions, then feel free to drop me a comment on here, or hit me up on my Twitter.
If you'd like to see what I'm working o, as I'm working on it then follow me on Instagram.

So, until next time

Peace!

73. Custom Paintjob: Mice and Mystics part 8. Hammer and Healing.

MOAR UPDATE!
Because consistent updates are a thing for now.
Mainly because I have a boat load of things I want to get finished!


So, more Mice and Mystics stuff.
This time it Nez and Tilda!


039



040


Not overly fond of how Nez's fur turned out, but Tilda turned out a lot better than I expected.

That's all of the mice done!
I might re do the bases of Lily and Colin to match these guys a bit better... maybe...


On to the last 5 cockroaches!!

Comments, constructive criticism welcome, as well as general chatter :)


Until next time

71. Custom Paintjob: Mice and Mystics part 7. The Magos and the Theif.

MOAR update!

If only I'd been this productive my whole life I'd have
A) Finished this project when I starte dit, and
B) Probabaly gotten a lot further in life.

BUT I DIGRESS!

There are no work in progress shots for this, just glorious finished models.

This first is Maginos the mage.


037

This is where the comeback started.
I just fancied doing him on a whim (I knew leaving them all on my desk would get to me eventually!).
The hardest part was trying to get him to match his more white furred artwork, without being too bright.
The way I decided to get around this was to just make the rest with a lot of viable fur darker (Nez and Filch to some extent).
He'll look light enough by comparison.

I really enjoyed doing his wooden staff and the ladybird.


The next up is Filch.


038

Filch was largely done to be honest.
I just was really uninspired to do his fur and knife... and that was still true while I was finishing him off.
But I really like how the fur turned out; nice and dark, buy with enough flicks of light grey to give it a good texture.
I also decided to spruce up the knife.
First I added the little poison tip, to give him more of a D&D rouge appearance rather than just a thief... but ti still didn't fit well.
It was then I decided on the slightly battered golden hit for the knife and boom!
Perfect.


2 more down.
2 left to go; Tilda and Nez (as well as 5 cockroaches, but screw those guys).

Nez shouldn't be too hard... just trying to make him stand out as interesting will be the challenge.
I'm still not looking forward to Tilda... too much white :|

Anyway, that is it for this update!

If you like what I do, why not subscribe and check out all of my other projects?

I post non-board game related hobby on The Underhive Hero. Recently I've been doing some Salamanders Space Marines.

I've been streaming games on Twitch; mainly Heartstone, Rocket league and more recently Chronicle: Runescape Legends.
I also put highlight reels up, and other videos I think are worth it on my YouTube Channel.

If you want a head sup on what I'm working on then follow my Instagram and Twitter (Both @DarKHaZZl3).


Anyway.
That's all for now.

Until next time!

57. Custom Paintjob: Mice and Mystics part 6. Award Winnnig Rats.

Nope, not actually award winning, just finished.

Check the not so great pictures out!

035

036

If you follow me on Instagram you'll know I've actually done a lot more on the Mice and Mystics models.
I just haven't got round to posting them.

I've also done a fair amount of work on my Lizardmen Bloodbowl/ Age of Sigmar stuff, which you can see over on The Underhive Hero.

I'll be getting back into posting a bit more regularly now I'm settling in to my job, and now I've passed my driving test, so watch this space (and my others too)!

See y'all soon
