Theodore Bruckner on Reaper. SOLD This is one of those miniatures that I wanted to paint from the first time that I saw it and no matter what one day or another I will do. As soon as I had the possibility I bought and started working on it on the same day that it arrived. The sense of power and fear that Reaper the demi griffin Theodore is riding really shows and I wanted to capture this feeling with my painting and also try Snow leopard fur paint on Reaper. Cleaning: Cleaning was quite a straight forward and easy process except for the sword on the foot Theodore which arrived broken and was very hard to repair. Pre-assembly: It took a bit of time and test fitting to get the parts to fit right this time, something not so usual from a Games Workshop miniature. In the end I opted to have Reaper fully assembled. The foot Theodore was also fully assembled with the helmet less head. Also The mounted Theodore was fully assembled except for the arm holding the lance and the helmeted head. Painting: The main
difficulties I saw for this painting and the things I most wanted to
get right were Reaper's Snow Leopard fur and Eagle's beak and Claws
which would fade in the Leopard's fur. This time i decided to paint
the figure one section at a time. That is totally finishing the area
I want before starting on the next. |
