The first miniature I painted in awhile. (Shoulder injury – long story.) Still learning how to get good results painting on Reaper's Bones material. This approach is pretty promising. Over the Hill Gaming |

Looks good. I find that the Reaper Bones figures just don't have the sharp detail as their metal counterparts. Yes they are a great value, but I am constantly frustrated by the many filled in undercuts that seem to be part of nothing. I know you don't need to prime the figures, but I think black priming would go a long way to help hide the errors in the castes figure. |

Black priming also makes it easier to pick out the details on the figure. Maybe its my middle-aged eyes, but the glaring white of an unpainted Bones mini is hard to focus on. |

Give the figures a thin wash to pick out details. Then use the tricks you used on the old lead figures to bring out details. |

Looking good. The well is one of my fave pieces from the Bones line. Someday I'll have to post pics of mine. |
