Reaper Bard



I started this figure up around two months ago, quickly setting him back on the shelf to collect dust while I played an insane amount of PlayStation 4 games for the rest of the summer. Now that vacation and all that fun stuff is over, I figured the best way to send off the end of this (f@cking ridiculously ) warm and carefree season was to get this guy done. I'm glad I finally did. I'm more or less happy with how he turned out, but I really don't like how the lute strings were modeled; I painted them over and over, but since the sculpt wasn't that good, I could only do so much... I took a lot of time messing with progressive highlighting and glazing--especially on the tunic, which I think came out okay. Now that he's done, I'm really excited to start my Stromcast Eternals for Warhammer: Age of Sigmar, the game that everyone on the Internet seems to hate. Come at me, bro.
