HeroQuest Part 7 The Gargoyle

I wasn't sure how to paint the Gargoyle, either as a stone statue or as the monster card picture.
I chose the latter because a stone statue would be a bit boring.


 
Next will be the Sorcerer.

HeroQuest part 6 Chaos Warriors

These don't look as nice in the photos, honest! The gloss varnish on the armour doesn't show the highlights very well. Not sure whether to matt varnish them. I thought I would also try the different colours. I think the green armour works the best.






 
Next I will paint the Gargoyle!

HeroQuest part 5 The Fimir

I Finally had time to finish The Fimir! These again were painted and then given a coat of Army Painter Quick Shade strong tone which has given the models some nice detail. I finished the models by giving them a coat of Daler and Rowney soluble matt varnish.



 
 
Next I will paint the Chaos Warriors!

HeroQuest part 4 The Orcs

This week I have painted the 8 Orcs. I used a green ink wash on the skin, the same as the Goblins. I used Quick Shade on the clothes which is really effective I think but limits the colours you can use because of the brown shade.

 

Next week I will paint the Fimir.

HeroQuest part 3 The Goblins

This weeks painting was the 6 Goblins. I used inks to shade the Goblin Green skin and the clothes they are wearing. The blood on the weapons is red ink.





Next week will be the Orcs.

HeroQuest part 2 The Undead

For the next part of my DofE skills painting I have done the 4 skeletons and the 2 Mummies. These were quite quick to do using Army Painter Quickshade strong tone to pick out the detail of the Skeleton bones and the Mummy linen cloth.





 
 
Next week I will paint the Goblins!

Heroquest Zombies

Hi I'm Ozzy and I am 14 years old. As part of my Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award I need to complete a skills section. For this I have chosen to paint miniature figurines. My dad suggested that I paint all the figures from the classic game HeroQuest.




Altogether there are 35 miniatures representing the Heroes and Monsters from the game. Each week I will post pictures of the latest figures I have painted.

The first figures I have painted are the 2 Zombies.




Next will be the rest of the Undead, the Skeletons and Mummies!
