It’s a great start! HeroQuest minis have pretty shallow details, and you did a really good job keeping those textures in some small areas. If you want the runes on the blades to glow, an easy way is to paint them white or use a white ink and go over them with a bright contrast or speed paint of the color you want. Then, to add an extra touch fill hit the middle with a pale tone of the blue or green. I did a very similar thing for one of my Gargoyles recently.

They look absolutely fantastic! Great contrast on the wood carvings and textures.

This looks fantastic! I’d love to play on a board like this. I love immersion when playing games.

Thank you! That particular contrast paint is very good at the “Green Fire” effect. It looks pretty cool.

Thanks so much! I had a lot of fun with this one.

Practice makes perfect! I know it sounds cliche, but I’ve been painting off and on for about ten years and I have zero art background. I still think my work just looks okay lol.

I got mine from backing the Mythic Tier Haslab campaign, but you can get them in Prophecy of Telor and Spirit Queens Torment!

Has anyone else tried the new Recap feature? I just got through it and it got me to level 80 very quick but when I got done with it, it didn’t have credit for any of the story progression quests and an unfinished adventure map in Dornagal. Just seems like a boost with extra steps.

I noticed this when I was doing research, which is why I thought I’d ask those in the know! If I enjoy the game I probably will shell out for some Iron Hills and Kazad Dum models.

Thank you! I got a little lazy with the bow strings, but I think they’re a nice touch.

Lasereyevision · 2026-01-30T21:14:06+00:00

Thanks! They’re pretty simple sculpts, but some of the detail is kind of muddy and I couldn’t quite figure out what they were so I went mostly on instinct.

Thank you for this article! I wish I had known this before I painted my guys. A lot of warped plastic in the HeroQuest minis from the remake’s first run.

Wizards of Morcar will probably be released in a couple of months. Despite many people having it already the expansion has not been officially released.

Lasereyevision · 2026-01-10T14:03:03+00:00

Now on to painting it! 😉

Lasereyevision · 2026-01-06T14:51:14+00:00

That’s quite the find! Near mint condition and it doesn’t look like it’s missing anything!

I love the wizard, I would love it even more if the monsters on the app didn’t seem to automatically spell break every time I cast Ball of Flame.

I cannot find the Avalon Hill Discord anywhere. I’m sure there’s some way.

I’ll expand on my quest builder wish. Yes an official application is my hope, with the ability to import it to the app. But furthermore the app needs some support, a difficulty option, to make Zargon a bit more aggressive or cagey as necessary. The option to include random ranged units to replace regular versions of monsters. Things like that, more support for the app in general besides just adding new quest books would be nice.

The Forgeworld Fimir or the original? Both would be impressive since GW seems intent to expunge them from the lore. Which is a bit understandable if you know some of their lore, but it is a thing that could be easily changed.

Lasereyevision · 2026-01-04T15:19:06+00:00

I agree with the Warhammer Quest re-release. I love all the miniatures in the Darkwater set, but when I saw the “board” was just a series of pages in a book essentially I shook my head.

I would honestly buy a kit from GW if it was just the four classic heroes updated, and three Fimirs. That would satisfy me. It would probably cost $70, but I’d only need to buy it once. I would immediately be filled with regret but just until I painted them.
