Three pretty solid days of effort went into this Dragonborn, and he was worth every second. Model is Tazythas, Dragonfolk Rogue by @reaperminiatures. I like to find references for the stuff I paint, just to know what the little baubles are and how other people paint them, but there was not a single one out there for this guy. I picked him up as a new release from my local game store a few weeks ago (although I think he’s from Bones IV?) and was really intimidated to begin. He luckily came in a lot of pieces; his head, wings, tail, and arms were all not part of the body, which was great. I can’t imagine painting all his little crevices with the model glued together. He actually came with a bunch of options for his arms, everything from meat to double swords and a tankard. Pretty cool mini! ⠀ ⠀ I didn’t prime this guy because I’ve had a lot of issues lately with my rattle can primer, and hand priming intimidated me with so many details. It worked out though; the factory prime was good on him and I had no issues. In handling him, I had issues rubbing paint off (there were too many pieces to stick on to something else to hold), so I ended up varnishing him four or so times between details. I tried a new process where a gloss varnish is painted on, which when dry makes shades fall only into recesses and not linger on flat surfaces. It worked, but I don’t know how important that was for something this small. I don’t know that I would do it again unless a specific situation arose where it would be useful. Overall though, an extremely fun mini that I’m proud to show off :) As always, progress pictures at the end.
