From Barks: Heroes (60 points)

These are the eight heroes from the Descent 2nd edition core game. I remounted them on 25mm bases because 20mm wasn't aesthetically pleasing. There's a fair amount of Contrast paint going on here; I'm grudgingly coming to like it. It makes certain colours quicker and is excellent for straps and bags etc.

Taste the rainbow.

Jain Fairwood, outcast ranger

Tomble Burrowell, Murder hobo gnome

Widow Tarha, orc witch

Ashrian, elf herbalist

Syndrael, elf exile

Leoric of the book, mage

Grisban the Thirsty, dwarf

Avric Albright, cleric

8x28mm: 40 points
Hall of Heroes: 20 points
Skull-o-meter™: 1

Where to next...?

  1. All things bright and beautiful! Some great animation and colour choices here - but I wouldn't like to cross that thief - the expression of a mad drunk with cyanide in his pocket!

  7. Great work Barks. I have similar feelings on the Contrast Paints...there are some niche areas where they are quite good!
