Painting Update: Vulture and Elf Wizard

The Daily DM • February 16, 2022

Dear Readers, just wanted to give you a quick painting update to let you know what projects I’m working on.

First up is the Elf Wizard. This miniature is one I’m working on for one of my youth players at adventurers league. I always like painting new players’ first miniature.

Sorry I didn’t get a step by step on her, but you can see I’ve only just begun.

Next up is the Vulture/Mad Dog:

Where I began today…

As you can tell, I’m having some troubles with the cockpit. The blue that goes over the cockpit is giving me problems. I may just paint the entire cockpit gold and then try to go over the detail part with a fine tip brush.

Additionally, as you can tell, I’ve been putting the gunmetal paint onto the miniature. I know I’ve missed a few spots, and I’m going to go back and touch those up.

In any case, that’s where I’ve left off for the painting update. I hope you’re as excited as I am. The vulture is going to give me some problems as it’s a 3D Print and not one of the CGL models. Those are getting extra special treatment. Depending on how the speed paints work, am I just end up painting all of those with the speed paints. But I got to see how well the speed paints work.

Until next time, Dear Readers…
