Well, now for Skuthus... don't like the white eye at all, tried to look ghostly but looks... weird.

Really eager to paint Mythic Battles minis...
I wonder if I will be able to paint my hundreds of Conan minis before MBP arrives!!

This is very inspiring Ricardo! I've always wanted to paint mine but have never built up the nerve! I've watched many YouTubes and bought all the paints and brushes.... One of these days I'm going to break the seal!!!

P.S. Please keep sharing! I'd love to see Thaug!
P.S.S. I was just in Barcelona a few months ago for the first time. Lovely city! Sagrada Familia and Montserrat were incredible!

Nice work Ricardo. How long did it take you to paint these? Do you think you'll finish all the Conan models before your MBP arrives?

Fantastic to see a painting section for MB:Pantheon. Hopefully I will have finished Conan by the time MBP arrives! Here's a few Conan I have painted to get things started. I will have to prioritise my Spartan mini now!

Very nice! I've got to find time and courage to do mine to train before MBP comes

actually Conan is nice to experiment and learn. a) you have a nice wide range of different mini types b) you have a boatload of minis of which you need only a ver small subset for one game. If you look at the scenario requirements, you can play for months before you collide with your painting schedule

Love your Thaug Asgo. I have to agree with using Conan to practice your painting skills on. Sadly, I was still waiting for Conan when I started so I had to make do with the inferior Zombicide instead.

Some great looking models there. I see a lot of people using Conan as a testbed to hone their painting skills for MBP

These all look fantastic! I especially like the Thaug model, I wasn't planning on purchasing this but I think I may have to now!
I sadly didn't pledge for Conan, but I have practised my skills on Zombicide Black Plague (finished the whole box ) and will also have Massive Darkness to paint as well.

Wow, awesome painting ! I'm currently struggling with my 12 Dungeon Twister minis... and now that I see this, I feel even worse. xD
Those mumies are really great. So much details and precision... You must have spent countless hours of painting for them, Helen. I think I'll never find the courage to try and do the same. Great work !

I love seeing these fantastic Conan sculpts, and lovely paint jobs.
Can't wait until I recieve my own MB:P minis so that I can start painting!

Actually I started painting my Descent minis to practice. I just started painting Conan's picts. And indeed, I expect to be ready for MBP...

For Descent minis, Sorastro's tutorials are really great. Very inspiring and the video editing is top-notch.

Once I've finished my Dungeon Twister painting, i'll switch to Descent to practice as well. What's great with MB:P is that most minis are unique and that's even more motivating. Painting a whole set of identical minis requires so much dedication, I don't think my Conan copy will get painted at all...

, I completely agree with you on the tediousness of painting figure after figure of the same thing. Even for Descent, I limited myself to painting the heroes and monster that only has a master and minion. But they belong to my friend, and I'm helping him paint for free, so I think it is fine for me to leave him the rank and files to paint
I can already see myself with only 1/2 of MBP painted...

love how good you did belit and shevatas, i find those skincolors quite challenging to get "right" the mumies are also very cool, like the colors very much!

Thanks for the link. Added to my "to watch" list which is growing... I have seen only the beginning of Sorastro's tutorial with zenithal priming and I found it great... But I realized also that I am not (yet ?) that much committed to painting mini ! Link :

same here, I tend to jump from mini type to mini type depending on the current interest. At some point I probably end up with the "work" part of finishing the same type stuff.
with my current WIP the Warlock from the stretch goals, I'm trying out some rebasing and modding:
which means in my case usually adding some blood to the mix

I love the paint job. They look great. I been painting off and on for years. I just hope my skill are up to the task after my surgeries. I been practicing again on blood bowl minis.
