MysticBear miniatures

Sorry for being gone for so long I've been working on many other projects including things on YouTube that have made scheduling posts on this blog a little bit slow and delayed for my liking at least. But now that I'm back into the swing of things and getting more of a consistent filming schedule, I would like to show a model that I've been working on for a little over 3 days, a model that I've grown to like is become one of my favorite Warhammer models ever, and a character that I have a connection to thanks to reading the books currently as I'm writing this post. first things first the model was very badly painted and was bought for relatively cheap on eBay.

I'm back, I've been taking a little time between army paintings and minis for a campaign and trying to get everything for the YouTube channel setup as well as adjusting to a new work schedule, but I'm back and the websites back to having regular posts now so why not start off with a miniature that I've been working on extensively to try to get right. This manager is part of the reaper bone black line which are supposed to be a harder plastic and more detailed line than the existing reaper bones and I can say that they definitely are this miniature was a treat to paint up the only disadvantage of course is some awkward placement of seam lines but the model was probably black using Vallejo airbrush primer black then used a zenithal highlight of pro acryl blue white, to achieve a colder tone but still help place my colors where they should be.

 hello! soon we will have a youtube channel, i will post the update as soon as it happens

So, I decided to take some nice studios shots of the Skelton army commission I have been working on for a while, hence why I haven't been posting too much, given the fact I have had a ton of Skeltons to paint before the holidays I'd say it was a success. stay tuned for more commission updates and soon the have w.i.p posts as well
