SteveM: Rock and Stone (58 points)

The following miniatures are from the Deep Rock Galactic board game based on the video game and have been stuck in limbo on the table since they were primed months ago. These were being painted for someone who played the video game so they needed to be semi-accurate. When looking for reference images online there are many variations and shades for each of the characters which aided delays. It seems the cartoon slant for the game makes all kinds of lighting possible in the drawings and artwork. The fandom wiki assisted with some parts but I ended up taking some liberty with some areas.

The following are the core player characters for the game with their supply pod and sentry gun. The main colors for the characters are yellow, green, red and blue and then orange and green for the two game accessories. For the ground work moon rock colored regolith seemed appropriate as they are deep space mining dwarves.

Sylvain: The primary colors you use on these miniatures suggest that they are board game pieces. Nonetheless, just like cartoon characters, your figurines are brightly colorful and very characterful with their oversize weapons. I'm sure you will enjoy using them. Nice job!
