vastcyclopeanvistas Behold! I took a pause from the MPC project to paint the Wizkids "Classic Beholder," based on the (I dare say) iconic Tom Wham illustration from the 1e Monster Manual. An image that has stuck with me all these years, and despite there being no suggestion of color in
vastcyclopeanvistas First Wave of MPC Minis I’ve gotten through most of the monsters from the Dungeon Invaders kit. Been kind of avoiding said invaders as they are some of the most awkward looking figures I’ve ever seen. To make up for it I am going to add more monsters—some OG Grenadier minis, including
vastcyclopeanvistas Crawlin’ Back to You Here’s my latest project. I've had an MPC AD&D Action Scene kit for, what, 20 years? I bought it on eBay once upon a time and have moved it back and forth among three continents. It came with all the pieces glued, but no paint
vastcyclopeanvistas Cadirith, Demonic Spider Yet another oldie but goodie. Been assembled and primed since I don’t know when. Much prefer her painted.
Figure Painting Eldritch Demon, aka Starspawn of Cthulhu This one ended up as a farewell gift for my gaming buddy Paul on his new adventures in Paris. Just a little cyclopean flavour for his desk. Nothing says “can I help you with your tech problems?” like a writhing tentacled thing! Again, another ancient Bones model that took me
Figure Painting Kyphrixis, the Copper Dragon This guy was primed white through two intercontinental moves, so I felt like he needed some closure too. Here he is, the adversary of the red dragon in the last post. This is one of my favorite dragon sculpts ever.
Figure Painting Marthrangul, Red at Last Another Reaper Bones figure that I’ve been working on for years. This one is finally finished. I love this sculpt so much. He has a very Smaug-like sneer and I had a lot of fun painting him. Next up: his foe, Kyphrixis the Copper Dragon!
vastcyclopeanvistas The Blue-Furred Nalfeshnee, At Last So it's been a long, long, long while at the 'Vistas...we've moved countries, among many other changes, in the last five years. Sorry for the cyclopean absence. Here's my latest effort--made in my new man-cave-type study/office/workspace/closet
Figure Painting Why Didn't I Ever Think of This? Mike's Painted Miniatures. What a great idea. This guy has gone and done something I never even considered...he's primed and pro-painted M.U.S.C.L.Es and they look fantastic! Just a little of his work...click the link to see 'em
