I suppose I'll post finished reaper minis over here instead of my project log over at the TyranidHive


Well I order a bunch of reaper minis this month since I needed a change of pace from painting nids, I've painted nothing but nids for the past 3 years I've been painting and I wanted to try out different textures like armor and cloths.


Well I think these 2 turned out pretty good, though I have to stop relying on washes, something I've noticed I did a lot on the first batch of reaper minis I did.


My opinion on these 2 models are that they are great for practicing various textures. The undead wolf covers bone, muscle, skin and fur all on one model, same with the Egyptian warrior and they look awesome to boot.


Anyway here they are.






While I'm here I might as well tell you how I did these colours which is not that much.
