This week I have been painting up some Minis from the Conan Boardgame for use in both the Board Game and Frostgrave. Below are a few pictures. A link to the full article is below.
Conan VS an Ape in a Cape.
A Beastcrafter Warband (as would be used in Frostgrave)
Conan himself. Given that I am a "tabletop quality" painter, these painted up fairly nice. :) Source Article: link |

Awfully bad for this quality of figures , sorry…. |

They are okay for "Tabletop quality." I don't see the point in discouraging people's work. It turns potential new people away from the hobby. Not everyone has to be able to paint to a Golden Demon or showcase quality. :) |

Nice One. I am "table quality" painter too. More people need to post table quality paint jobs as it shows the hobby in a more round light then just Golden Demon showcases. Keep up the good work :-) |

Just a few highlights will add a lot to your paint job. Notice where the light in photos has added highlights, use the photo as reference and add a lighter shade of your base colour to those areas. The paint should be thin but not runny. |

They look so much better than unpainted. I think your shading turned out pretty well (that is pretty hard for me, washes don't always quite work that well IMO). |

Thanks BoomBoomBoom, Bryan at 50 Paces and Redroom. Bryan, for now I am going to leave them as is, but I may come back to them. I have so much work to do before next Saturday when I am hosting a convention game that I will be using these figures in. :) |

They look fine to me. Table top standard is what most of mine get painted to, especially when I have a project that requires lots of figures. |
