Moonstone Miniatures Game: Creep

Sadly, I knew I was pretty much doomed the second I laid eyes on my fist Moonstone miniature a few years back. There is a irreverent streak that runs about a mile wide in the sculpts, and everything about them just screams for me to paint them. Paint them ALL.

Creep isn’t the first Moonstone mini that I painted, but he’ll be the first I’m posting here. He’s part of the Human Dominion range, and exudes a really fun menace. I can’t wait to paint more, hahaha!

Moonstone minis are made of a fine cast resin, and hold detail pretty well. There is a fare amount of flash on some models, and others hardly any, which I find typical of resin models. It’s easy to lose track of the details when painting, especially when your eyes are starting to fail like mine are. I found keeping the Moonstone website open to the mini I’m painting helps make sure I’m not missing something!

I printed the mushrooms on my Saturn, and went with some bold fluorescents on them to bring out the bright colors on the mini. It’s a fantasy world, it’s okay to go big and bright!

Next up for my Moonstone collection will be Doug the Flatulent, who is a farting pug with a goblin on his back. Yes, it’s that amazing!

Marvel Zombies: Drax the Destroyer

Still playing catch-up on the never-ending mass of miniatures from the Marvel Zombies Zombicide game from CMON! Today it’s all about Drax. Or Mr. Destroyer, if you’re feeling fancy.

I’m pretty consistently surprised with the quality of these figures from CMON, considering the first Zombicide minis I painted were not the best of experiences!

Also, I LOVE that these miniatures have base details already. That’s a really great addition that goes a long way towards selling the mood of the game!

I still haven’t played a game of Zombicide, but it could happen. Regardless, I’m happy to have these around for any super-hero action that might come along!
