From Barks: Snow Golems (14 points)

A very quick and easy paintjob to get me started. I like to do something seasonal for my first Challenge post, and with the mercury well over 30℃ these snow golems were perfect. They're from Nolzur's D&D minis, and required minimal prep. My painting technique of white undercoat, Speedpaint 2.0 Battleship Grey, drybrush white really brings out the mouldlines like I intended... I used some sparkly snow effect on the bases held in place with satin varnish, hopefully it holds.



They're tall, on 30mm bases, but I'll be more than happy with 10 quick points.

First, welcome back to the Challenge, Barks! We're on the other end of the temperature spectrum from yourself, with us here in Canada experiencing windchills at -30 currently.  These's fellas would be quite at home here! I really like your ice/snow recipe, which provides a great backdrop to their 'happy' maws. Well done!

These two golems look to be at least 40mm high, so I'm going to score them at 7 each. 14 points to start your climb up the ladder, Barks!
