From JP : Bullywug Raiders [Fantasy] (50 points)

Hi - my first submission for my first ever Analog bash. Thank you Frederick for talking me into getting off my ageing painter's duff...

I am a slow and a**l painter. I started as a wargamer painting to get figures on the table and now I am more a painter getting figures for games that may never happen.😀

The group are from Otherworld's fabulous Original Dungeons and Dragons style range. There are 6 28mm Bullywugs. I start with Vallejo cammo brown undercoat (on any and all jobs) and paint the figure fully, even if carrying shields. I paint the latter separately, so as not to miss detail (see 2nd para above).


I use Foundry paints and apply my approximation of the Dallimore 3 colour approach to painting. The painting handles are a wonder to have and use, kudos to the inventors.

I am seeking points as follows:

6 x 28mm figures = 30
Fantasy Library    = 20
Total of                 = 50 




Thanks for the opportunity to be more productive!!

First, welcome aboard the Challenge, JP! Delighted to have you with us.

These Bullywugs are terrific! You've done a great job on their green skin and creepy eyes (and I also love the shell shields). I have done a few Otherworld Miniatures in the past and really enjoyed working on their sculpts - you've done them proud here. Well done!

  7. Welcome to the Challenge! These are definitely not something a low level party really wants to encounter in the swamp. I especially love the details you put on their shields and the individual details like the loincloths.

    Welcome Aboard!
