A light armour spaceman from Brother Vinni that I picked up at Salute a few years back that coincidentally makes an ideal stand-in for everyone’s favourite Shepherd:
After taking these pictures, I went back and gave his base an additional bone drybrush, as it was looking a little bland (as the first time I painted it, I went a bit too heavy and it looked too monochrome, so I washed it back down and started again, but was perhaps too timid the second time!)
So, Shepherd is the first miniature completed for the Mass Effect project that I’ve had on the back burner for at least five years (as I think I started gathering bits for it when my wife was pregnant with our first child), and will probably never actually get used, as he’s something of a one man army, which makes it a little hard to use in a friendly game with an opponent... maybe if we start yet another Rangers of Shadow Deep project... Either way, he was a fun little mini to paint, regardless of whether he ever gets to leave the figure case again!
Painting him brings the Tally to:
43 vs 111 = -68
Nine more to hit that one a week average challenge for the year!
...or at least it would have been, if not for the timely arrival of this lovely little box of joy from Russia the day before this post was scheduled to go live:
Four miniatures that entirely coincidentally look like characters from the Witcher series, what luck!
Which leaves the Tally at
43 vs 115 = -72
N7 day is a thing? I can never keep up with this hobby ;D
ReplyDeleteThis is a great figure, I'm pretty sure it was specifically intended as a nod to Commander Shepherd. With your paint job, he's a dead ringer, so good job.
I am very thankful to you as your article has given me lots of ideas.This article is awesome! You did a really good job.Thank for sharing. Keep up the good work.
