Descent Painting by relative newb

By Drakthal, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Hi guys :)

Saw all of your great painted miniatures and thought it would be fun to share mine as well. Before beginning to paint descent i hadnt painted miniatures since 14 years ago when i as a kid painted a bit of warhammer, so you might see a bit of an upgrade as we get further and further into the models (at least in my opinion) :) The heroes are normally kept to the design from the pictures, while lieutenants and monsters are a bit more ffa.

Without further ado, lets start with the base set heroes.

Dude...thanks to your paint job I realized that Bol Goreth has a HEAD in the chains. I thought it was a stone or something like that, lol. Gotta pay more attention to the details of some minis. Well done!

Haha your welcome :) Some people paint it as a statue head, i just thought that to be a bit boring :)

Nice work! Personally I loved giants and elementals. Seems simple but somehow sticks really well. i will try to reach a similar result on my minis :rolleyes:

Haha your welcome :) Some people paint it as a statue head, i just thought that to be a bit boring :)

Someone in my group thought he was an Ettin who ripped off his other head and swings it around... we had to look at his Lieutenant Pack box to double check if it's a stone head or not. (on the box it lookes like a stone head.)

But it looks totally badass with that real head in there.... He ripps of the heads of giants and swings 'em around.... he's just that badass. ;)

I think it's a bronze head from a statue :)

It is a bronze or stone head of some sort :) I just like the idea about this brutal thing that just rips the heads of its opponents and uses them on other people :)
