I'll join this one - think I've got a Reaper peryton I need to do

This is the guy who's been sitting on my table to be gap filled for way too long. Need to make up some milliput and go under his wings.

He's so cool! Where's he from?

I'm wondering now if this is the peryton that Tars was talking about; I got him from the Dreadmere expansion of Reaper's Bones IV Kickstarter some years ago, I always just figured he was supposed to be some sort of celestial stag

Finally got around to rubbing up some milliput and trying to cram it in there; give it a night or two to set and see if it sets up right; first time working with it specfically

Yours feels much more magical forest spirit, which is what I thought it was originally.

I like yours as well. Looks more like an actual creature than an ethereal thing

Yay, now her friends are painted too 🎉

#

Gentle feedback is much appreciated ❤️ it's my 9th mini

noble peak Mar 22, 2025, 10:13 PM

Love the color pallet. Very well balanced and looking good together. Good collor placement too. Lovely painting.

My dryad will have a lot of the green brown and collorshifts too. Pretty much same colors.

silk mortar Mar 23, 2025, 1:06 AM

#

I like it!
Seconded on the colour palette - great choices!

If you're looking to improve, I think your next step is to start adding more depth by increasing contrasts. People are often afraid of doing so thinking it will look cartoony. Push the shadows and the highlights

abstract narwhal Mar 23, 2025, 10:09 AM

#

Thank you very much!!
I look forward to seeing the dryad painted :)
And I will definitely try using more contrast, sounds manageable for me!
Thank you for taking your time to look at my mini 😊

Thank you. Tried to see how lively and visually intresting I could get it with just 6 paints: olive green, deep green, beastly brown, oak brown, ice yellow and black

i think you achieved both :)

wispy hazel Mar 31, 2025, 7:33 PM

went poison Ivy for this. thinking where I could add more visual interest

#

will probably switch out the gold bangle for a more bronze one since it kinda blends in with the skin. given i went with a yellowish green

adding a flower or something similar to the base could work
