It's been a great pleasure to paint some Dark Sword minis! As I have mentioned before, we started painting them almost from the beginning, 14+ years ago.
The incredible details and fine castings make them a joy to paint!
I went very traditional with this Wood Elf figure. I would certainly not mind painting it again with a new palette... perhaps even going the opposite way, making it a Dark Elf. That would be a very fun side by side comparison!

Fabulous!!

DeleteJames, I have a quick question for you. What's the texture difference between Vallejo Black Lava and Red Oxide pastes?
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree about Darksword minis.
The red oxide is more like sand, while the black lava can be made to have a volcanic, basalt style texture, very glassy.
DeleteExcellent, many thanks.
ReplyDeleteHappy Painting!
