In the Belfry - Dark Souls Gargoyle
I consider the Gargoyle to be one of the most iconic Dark Souls bosses, and was particularly happy about this big bad.

A Spring in Her Step - Kingdom Death Mage
This was a love-hate project. I think the model is gorgeous, and really enjoyed working on its palate, taking the conventional look and trying something very different through the pale lighting.
On the other hand, this model should have never been made in anything other than HIPS plastic: the fragility of the piece in resin was pretty much infuriating to work with, the second most frustrating I've worked on, and it's made me rethink buying any pretty little resin models.

Dungeon Romp - Warhammer Quest Silver Tower Review
Silver Tower is, well, as the title suggests, a bit of a romp. It's certainly in the tradition of a dungeon crawl, but simple and easy enough that it's a very casual experience.
Barbarian Hordes - Ral Partha Blood Drinkers
Another quick one-- this is the biggest unit I've painted in quite a long time! I'm a bit surprised to say that, despite the volume of dudes in this army, I'm still strolling along without going crazy--I think it says something about the old days of monopose models: while they're not as sophisticated as a lot of more modern styles, they actually have the right amount of detail to work with them in bulk that can keep things clear without getting too fiddly.

Pulling Strings- Zoraida and Her Puppets
This is the second Zoraida crew I've gotten to paint, and I still think Wyrd hit the proverbial nail on the head with this iteration.

Gloom and Doom - Silver Tower Elf Heroes
The Misweaver Siah is definitely the color scheme I'm most excited about for my Silver Tower set. I thought I got a pretty unusual set of colors to work together, and think that she's one of GW's better female models in general.

Spoils of War - Mordheim Beastmen Raiders, part 2
One bit I really like about working with heavy object source light is playing tricks with color saturation.

Orc, Orc, Orc! - More Ral Partha orcs
These guys have started to reach a critical mass where they actually look like an army-- I've done six units of these guys, and the mass is looking pretty cool, now!
