OMG!

That is awesome Lasse! Especially on only your third try!

I can see an army of Toad Kings already!

This is really great, I am absolutely amazed by the result!

I've kept silent but watch every step unfolding every week.

Mr. Brogger, you are amazing!! Congratulation on this success

Now the question is: will they be unpaint or prepaint when you ship them out....

Big cheers to you.

Thank you every one  I have tried to make some more Toad Kings today, but it won't work very well for me I will try to get some resin and see how that will work. I will still keep on trying with tin as well, but it is very hard to get it done right.

For the painting part Old Master - I think I just paint one Toad King and show it here. If it could be of interest for anyone, I might upload some images that shows how I do the paint job.

Cheers for now

Here is the best copies I have done so far.

I look forward to see how resin wil work.

And of course now you know we're chomping at the bit to each get our hands on one of these!  As further testimony, it's THE miniature so far that has captured any interest from me (as I usually prefer standees).

And definitely (if convenient), please share your painting process with us.

Okey, I will show some images of the painting process when I get so far. Do not hurt each other to get these, I have  a feeling that resin will work munch better and be easier to work with.

Cheers for now

Painting the Toad King

Okey, so I will try to explain as good as I can how I paint the TK.

Step 1

I am giving him an undercoat of black.

Step 2

Then I paint him in the colors I want him to be.

Step 3

Then I apply ink colors on each of the other colors I painted him in. The ink gives the colors a little more depth - makes a little shadow effect.

Step 4

I paint the brown on his bag and head. On his bag I leave the green color between his abscesses.

I also added color to the spots and strain on the mushroom.

Step 5

I then use ink color again all over the brown color.

Step 6

Now I am doing some highligts. I take some colors that are lighter than the ones I used in the start. I then paint on all the surface of the other colors making sure that the darker colors are left in the deep areas. That is what gives the most depth in the figure.

Step 7

I applay the last of the eyes

Step 8

It is all done exept that I still need to apply some varnish to protect the colors.

The Toad King is now ready to jump around in his middle region.

And here he is with some of his minions

Hope this was a bit usefull. Questions are wellcome.

Cheers for now

I like the toad king miniature

You did a great job mr brogger

That is tremendous work Mr B!!

Thank you again guys, I am very happy that you like the miniature

Here is a picture to compare the Toad King miniature and his art. I know the print in the background is not so good, and it is the old card. I just used it to look at, when I sculpted the TK.

cheers

Nice picture !

The Toad king stands next to his character card.

Some news on the Toad King.

Cheers for now

Cheers for now
