As anticipated I was able to complete the base work and figure of “Fulumbar” quite comfortably this week. I do like Reaper figures as many of you will know and this little 28mm chap, a dwarf captain no less, was fun to do and had a nice bit of detail to pick out.
The base needed more paint work along with a few bits of plant to help bring it to life and the water effects such as they are were extremely straight forward. I used the method I employed on my Wizard Tower project but on a much smaller scale.
Little else for me to add this week other than images of the finished model.

Gorgeous work mate, beautiful in fact. I love these mini-dios

Thanks Alex. I am enjoying doing these but I am up against it at the moment in terms of my time. Sadly I might have to take a break, something for me to mull over in the coming weeks. 🤔

I love the depth of colors, especially as shown in the beard. Just perfect. The figure is great, and the wall itself is art. Saw above you might have to take a break, hell, that would only cleanse your hobby palate (and maybe your paint palette too). Take care and again, 👍👍👍👍👍

Cheers Mark, glad you like it. Yes, I think a break is on the cards, so much going on right now, just need to address the balance through the summer I think. The good news is I think I have the beginning of a grand plan formulating for later in the year but more on that perhaps next week. 🙂

Fantastic, he looks ready to leap into action (probably to give some unfortunate orc a good kicking!).

Yea, he might be small but he’s a nasty little bugger! 😂

He’s a dwarf, so his mission probably includes Ale 🙂
Great work as usual. And for someone who claims to paint slowly, you still seem to have a great output rate.

Very nice TIM, the water effect is great. I also like the choice of Jem colour really sets the model off well.

That is a lovely vignette. The dwarf is wonderfully painted and the base sets him of nicely.

Brilliant as always mate. I really like the brick work and the beard is sensational. How long does the high of finishing something last before you move onto the next mini?

Cheers IRO. As for the high, not very long. Pending the time of day I finish it I will typically take a break and start on the next one the following day. Doesn’t always work like that but generally it does. 🙂

This came out really nicely! I like the idea of a dwarf ready to fight out in the wilds of a fantasy world. The running water looks very nice too and gives this dio a bit of extra action to it as well. It sounds like you might take a little break from these (which is totally understandable). I would say that they’ve been really fun to see and read about so hopefully when inspiration strikes, you’ll share some more with us 🙂

There will be more for sure and I have plenty of ideas, in fact I have one more planned. But it is the time of year, along with a release from lockdown after almost 18 months, when other things are competing for my time. Simply not enough hours in the day!
