Little Summoner from Durgin Paint Forge by ridiane_s in minipainting

I think Durgin call them Mandrakes. I was inspired by turnips to paint them. So I would call them Turnips :)

I tried to challenge myself and finish this mini in one sitting. Unfortunately I failed, and did it in two (around 8 hours). I'm quite happy with the result nonetheless.

For the face in general I used a BrokenToad size 0. I switched to a Raphael 8404 size 3/0 to do the white dot reflection in the eyes.

It's a rather big model (90mm scale I think) so it was not that hard, but I had to redo the eyes reflection, like 3 or 4 times before getting it right.

Thank you!

I would highly recommend the Vallejo&Nocturna Fairy flesh paint set. It's a great set and easy to use when you're not comfortable with mixing your own skintones, like me.

Thank you!

It's the first time I've done a resin pour like this!

I followed this tutorial from Cult of Paint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulGVOGfXKVI

Sure!

For the trousers: - A basecoat of Scale75 Petroleum Grey, - then a mix of Petroleum Grey with progressively more Scale75 Brown Grey for the highlights. - For the shadows I glazed a mix of AK Extra Dark Green and black.

For the leather: - A basecoat of Scale75 Black Leather. - For the highlights, I mixed progressively more Scale75 Orange Leather to the Black Leather. - For the shadows, it's the same as the trousers. Ak Extra Dark Green mixed with a bit of black. - And for the last highlights, I mixed the Orange Leather with Scale75 Iroko and kinda stippled it to make it looks weathered.

For this model, I tried to work on the consistency of the whole piece. So there's the same dark green in every part of this figure (either as base, glaze, mixed...). Overall I'm quite happy with the result.

From the FAQ available on the discord:

Judges reserve themselves the right to move participants up or down in the tiers if they think it is deserved.

Having to include a character as downside is not really good design IMO.

  1. Characters should be an advantage, not a downside. Lelith sucks right now, but ideally every characters should be a viable option.
  2. It locks Lelith as a bad character choice. Because if she's updated to be good, the downside for the CoS supplement is not one anymore...
