A thing a week 2025, week 10
After perhaps too many weeks making limited progress toward this year's goals, we're about to plow straight into them starting this week. First up we have two questionable sculpts and two very questionable molds. The guy on the left is an Anhurian Cavalry and the guy on the right I found as Onyx Chevalier, Overlords Solo but was listed as Overlord Cavalry in the Bones 4 Fan Favorites catalog. The sculpts are made much worse by the quality of the molds and the bones white plastic. I did what I could with the mold lines and warped features but could not get the lean out of the overlord dude. The results are OK and the Anhurian guy can go with the other questionable sculpts/molds of Anhurian crossbow and Arnhurian spear dudes I painted very early on. This guy is clearly a mammoth and from Bones 4 and until I went and looked up the link at reapermini.com, I was puzzled by why he's so small. Turns out, he's a Pygmy Mammoth! This is about the pinnacle of lazy painting consisting of a zenithal, a contrast paint base coat, a minimal drybrush for highlights, and a handful of details picked out. The tusks were probably the most expensive part since the paint I was using was too thin on my wet palette requiring far too many coats. The result is OK for a speed paint but better than I might have hoped.
