Tabletop World Windmill

Tabletop World Windmill painted with Reaper Miniatures MSP paint, Vallejo paint, Citadel ink and The Army Painter quickshade. This is the second piece of the hamlet I'm building. I made it in the same fashion as the Water Well I painted two months ago. I painted the weathering effect on the wood and stones and added verdigris and rust on the metallic parts. This Windmill model consists of six parts. The sails need to be fixed to the roof. I will build a base later, since I want to participate in next year's Tabletop World painting competition with this model.

I also added six decorative anchor plates on the windmill wall. I designed these structural reinforcements in Inventor software, prepared a program in Chitubox and printed them on my resin 3D printer. I broke one of them when I removed it from the print supports but I think it’s even more interesting and realistic this way. As you can see on the last pictures, the anchor plates are about 14mm long and only 2mm thick. For me 3D printing is offering an array of new possibilities. I think these additional elements are very original as I have never seen them on other models before. I can’t wait to see what other components I’ll be integrating to my next projects.

02023, Tolzar Righteous Arm

 Reaper Miniatures 02023, Tolzar Righteous Arm.
This Dark Heaven Legends model was sculpted by Sandra Garrity.

I started painting it during RVE (Reaper Virtual Expo). I painted the cape as I was following along Ian Markon's class on blending through Layering and Feathering. And I painted the freehand at the bottom of the cape during Brice Cocanour's Beginner Freehand class. I then painted his armor, shield and hammer head using the SENMM technique. It's my first take at Sky and Earth Non Metallic Metal. I did my best to reflect the sunset on all metallic parts.

It's a miniature made up of three pieces which are easy to assemble.
I will now build a proper base for it.
