World of Warcraft the boardgame Spring Clean Challenge
Worgen, spiders and the first characters!
So I hate painting spiders, I don’t know why. I’m not scared of them in real life. I just find them boring to paint and fantasy games ALWAYS have giant spiders.
Anyway these were relatively painless, as were the worgen.
The game requires the tiers of enemy, denied by their colour , green blue or red. So far I’m just painting the rim of the base this colour but as the spiders don’t actually HAVE a base I integrated it into their actual bodies.
I also did the first four heroes, it was at this point it dawned on me how teeny tiny they are, especially the dwarf. They all looked pretty terrible UNTIL at the end I did a black oil wash which indeed was magic!
I was very tempted to start hilights and dry brushing but I held firm, what’s the purpose of this? To get the game to the table looking cool. Much like the slightly wonky line when you are decorating that seems at the time to be the centre of the universe while you are doing it but you never notice again. I held firm and refused to make them any better so I can plough in with more teeny figures.
Oh but I did use an oil wash on the spiders encouraged by the heroes!
