Some of my painted miniatures

I’m hoping to change this thread into Talisman or Dungeonquest painting log but till then; here’s a mixed bunch of figures I’m either happy with or just have not shown before.
These were painted during last 9 years or so, though some of them have received attention later on.
Most are for mordheim but ones on hexagonal bases were meant for my advanced heroquest project, a project that I’ve since scrapped.














And finally two serious close-ups. While editing the pictures I noticed how good the eyes of dwarf with spear and goblin showing off his wicked dance moves looked.
Both were painted years ago but have since then got a lick of paint for their skin and, you guessed it, eyes.
Just last year I started giving eyes special attention when painting them: Instead of just black dots, now I (pain stakingly, should be added..) paint pupil inside of iris.
To be honest, I can’t say if the eyes on these two actually look as good IRL as in photos since they are just too tiny to see well with bare eyes.
Maybe it’s just poor lighting that helped me on these pics.
Anyway, it’s nice to know my efforts in painting eyes isn’t going for waste, even if you need a microscope to tell the difference.

Love the dwarfs - lots of character in those sculpts and your paint jobs

You can't go wrong with good dwarves. I love the soldier in the half puff and slash. And yes, they eyes are glorious.

Thanks guys. Old dwarves sure have a certain charm to them and the character in these older sculpts must have been what initially draw me to collecting them.

I took some more pics. Beastman was painted some three years ago and is most recent one of these I’ve posted pictures of. It ended up being a bit too grim ’n’ dark, but still represents more or less how I like to paint these days.

Very nice. I do like your style with the black-lining really knocking up the contrast and making these models pop. The tunic edging on the dwarves takes those models up that notch and what can I say about the eyes. My Achilles heel has always been faces. Those eyes, woah, well I'd need eyes as good as those in order to even attempt to paint eyes as good as those! Lovely work.

That beastman shaman is awesome! I love the runes on his stole. And again . . . dwarves! Those old dwarves have some great character and your paintwork is gorgeous.

Thank you for your kind comments EricF and symphonicpoet.

For me painting faces is the part I like the most. Even though at the end of the day it makes very little difference whether eyes are painted or not, as they propably won’t be seen on the gaming table, I like to try and paint minis as detailed as possible. Partially due to this it takes me forever to get anything finished.

So, it’s certaily been a while since I last posted any photos here. I was indeed going to tackle both Talisman and Dungeonquest minis but neither of those projects have even begun, and seems like they won’t any time soon either.
There's not much to show but I thought I might as well post these. Once again (this really feels like it’s becoming a tradition for me...) most of these are older paintjobs and only last two miniatures are recently painted. Hopefully it won’t take me another 3½ years to post more pics here.

incredibly lovely work all round on this thread.

Awesome paintjob! I`m really geföashed of your work! I bow to your ability!

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.

Great stuff Geroak! I especially like the first fellow and the dwarf.

lovely paintwork...

Really great work, love your painting style!

Wow. Floored by your work, Geroak. Such minute details, such a subtle command of color. I have much to learn from here.
