April is over and it’s now time to catch up on what’s I’ve been doing. A pretty good month actually, I managed to get a fair amount done! COLLECTING Shockingly, I continue on my “not buying physical models” spree, mostly because I’m just printing them instead.

With the mask and crown, I was strongly inspired by both the Leper from Darkest Dungeon and Baldwin from Kingdom of Heaven. Painting was, as you can see, pretty simple. I base coat all my miniatures in black (because I’m a psychopath) so painting in white requires some work. For this reason, I painted all the robes in Iraqi sand before covering in white. A black wash…
