Mooooooooonstone!!

Finally finished up Baron Von FancyArse & Eric the squire!! With these too fella complete that means the 2P starter set (+ Ribald the troll) is now all finished!!! (Scroll down for the ‘family’  photo)
Let’s have a wee look at the final two members first though 🙂

Baron took a bit longer than the others I think – most probably due to the fact that the snotty wee sod is dressed plate armour….. well mostly.  When I started on Moonstone, as with most projects, the first question I needed to make a decision on was non-met or true-met for the metal elements. The overall aesthetic and character of the Moonstone minis led me to think that they was suit non-met workups best.  And well with the Baron, this came back to bite me firmly on the ass!!
Overall though he was a really fun paint although I am never painting bloody feathers again!!  (I say this every time I paint feathers!! )

Onto young Eric the squire aka Eric the brave.  Eric has a lot going on on him. A backpack with all manner or crap hanging off him!! Plus blonde hair……… blonde hair is, imho, the trickeist of hair colours to get right with red hair being the easiest and brunette somewhere inbetween.  I needed to work some pinky red into Eric somewhere as that’s the unifying colour I choose for the Commonwealth humans. The shield was a lot of fun to do though mind and a lot easier than you’d think 🙂

So that is all the Moonstoners done for now. I has none left to paint…………. until next weekend of course………. Salute!!!!  With GoblinKingGames being there, I know I will be stocking up on more of the fabulous denizens of Tauber…… of yes ……. let’s not forget the obligatory photo of the finished starter box (+ Ribald)
