Inspired by the thousands of miniatures on display at Wargames Foundry I set to work this morning on my much delayed Summer of Citadel. The sky was clear and the weather was hot and so I set myself up under the shade of a parasol and got cracking. Much of the day was spent prepping some of the figures I picked up yesterday and dabbling here and there.
Small models like the Famous Familiars are perfect for me. Interesting, well designed and sculpted and of course imaginative and full of character. Their tiny proportions also make them easy to complete in a single sitting, which is something I rather enjoy. Perhaps its the years away, but I enjoy sitting down with bare metal and a few hours later, another completed model joins my tiny collection.
This figure, daemonette, has been painted by me before just before my 'Lost Weekend' of five or so years. I repeated the colour scheme from memory to help push my flesh painting skills, which regular readers will know is my main focus at the moment.
I think she has come out quite nicely. Better than my last attempt even. Here have a look.
I did paint the eyes on this model but relented. I blacked in the sockets as she lost her sinister nature and veered to near to potential Onlyfans model. For me, this sculpt is supposed to represent the dangers of lust and wantoness for unwary wizards. I like the black emptiness of her face betraying the impending doom for any magic user daft enough to summon such a servant forth from the ether.
