Frostgrave by Duster
A Wizard and a Captain
The wizard comes from Reaper Miniatures, from KS #4. I’m not sure is out in retail though…
Anyway, most of the mini was painted in Contrast Colors, except the base and staff. The robes are Shyish Purple, it was the first time i tried this color, it might’ve come up better otherwise… The cloak is Talasar Blue and i like the result! The beard is Apothecary White, i’m not sure wich contrast i used for the satchel, Snakebite Leather most probably (sometimes i go for Wyldwood, i think it does better at leather than wood 😉 ). For the eyes, after i manage to put the white, i was afraid to ruin them, i thought the pupils would be too big, so i went with Hexwraith Flame, as if he was invoking magic! For the gem on the staff, i tried Spiritstone Red, over Stormhost Silver (not too bad…).
The miniature itself is a bit big size-wise, compare to Northstar minis but, it will do anyway!
This miniature, also from Reaper Miniatures KS #4, will serve as a lighly armored captain… This miniature would also make a good Ranger and/or compagnion for Ranger of Shadowdeep in my opinion and he is out in retail with some friends…

Aside for the color of the cloak (rhinox hide), i forgot to take notes and will have to make tests when i go for the guy with the mug next! I think i managed the face pretty well… even though there’s a bit of a bulge on the mini’s right eye, i couldn’t repair the “bleeding pupil” effect even after 3 tries…
