More Skin Horse minis: Sweetheart, group shot


First, Sweetheart.



This started as a wolf from one of Reaper's many "Familiar Packs", painted by me a couple years ago. But I wasn't really happy with the paint job (which you can see here), so I stripped the paint and got to work. I Dremeled off the sideburns and used the rotary tool to also smooth out some of the more scruffy aspects of the fur. A needlenose pliers let me bend the tail up and around, and a bit of Apoxie Sculpt poofed out the chest ruff. Rather than just go solid white, I did a base coat of ivory white and used both sandstone and pale yellow for shading colors. A brown ink wash was used around the eyes, and a Micron pen drew in the blue irises.


And now a group shot!



Penny added for scale.

Gavotte is in an very scary place for Tip.

I imagine it's no picnic for Gavotte either.

All ready for the miniature wargame of your choice! Although, in this case, it'd be more like the miniature soul-crushing politically-correct bureaucracy game of your choice.

Doesn't the old Bureau 13 RPG manage to cover all the bases? And has Foglio cover art.

I should check it out someday.
