Here's a piece that's been in the paint queue for several years. But as you can guess, I need it in an upcoming WHAT encounter. It's the two henchmen from Reaper Miniatures Dark Heaven Legends range - 02548 Merchant & Henchmen. Though I painted the merchant some time ago, the two henchmen sat around partially… Continue reading Two Henchmen & a Chest

Lady in a Bathtub
In an episode I've written, I needed a lady in a bathtub to add interest to the miniatures I've assembled for the photos. A woman bathing has been a popular subject in art for hundreds if not thousands of years. There are several 28mm miniatures to choose from in varying degrees of nudity. I chose… Continue reading Lady in a Bathtub

Ouch!
If you squint your eyes just right, you can see African termite mounds. - a stalled project. The Fall of a Floozy Eleven days ago, I drove all the way into Dallas for an appointment at the UT Southwestern dental clinic.

Mid-Summer Madness – Session 13

Anyway, I only worked one hour on the project painting only one color - yellow. Yellow is a hard color to paint. Oh, you can gloop it on thick with lots of brush… Continue reading Mid-Summer Madness – Session 13
