A few more pieces for my dungeon crawler. The skeleton and the kneeling archer are both Reaper figures while the basin is from one of the Mantic terrain kits.
As you can see on the skeleton, I accidently hacked off some toes while getting him off his integral base. Then I learned a neat trick. If you soak the feet of bones figures in boiling water for about 20 seconds, the material becomes much softer. Doing this, I was able to easily slice the archer of his base, despite a much thicker connection.
I also got a new can of 'Colour Forge Matt Varnish' to try out, and made my first test on the archer. I've got to say, I'm very happy with the results. The can had a more powerful spray than any I've used before and gives a very pleasing finish. I'll need a few more tests, but I might have found my new go-to varnish!
I am awaiting delivery of some Hirst Arts molds to start making my dungeon tiles. I sold off my original molds long ago - which I regret. I'll do another post going into why I've decided to go that route for dungeon building when I get them.
I've always been tempted by hirst arts. I'd love to see a post detailing you causing some of their stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip regarding removing Bones' bases.
ReplyDeleteThe archer is a nice figure - he looks quite determined.
