The Nightmare set from 2022 didn’t really speak to me. But for some reason this one did.
I always feel like I’m missing something when painting realistic horses. But this one is fantastic enough that it seems okay.
The Hollow Fiends came with clear plastic flight stands, but now obvious place to mount them. These rods were originally intended just for painting, but I ended up deciding to keep them.
Porphyrion (Nightmare Joss)
Look at this brawny man. He probably can’t look at you through that helmet.
Stiltzkin (Nightmare Mechanical Attendant)
Stiltzkin is this lovely silly little beast.
Weeping Huntress (Nightmare Melissa KORE)
The Weeping Huntress is the one weak sculpt of the batch. In particular, it doesn’t really fill the 40mm base. Oh well, you can’t win ’em all.
More big fish monsters! Or in this case, a crab monster.
Brachyura
The paint job is mostly airbrushed GW Contrast paints, with assorted drybrushing to bring out the details. Sometimes that technique fails me on naturalistic models, but this one has enough sculpted detail for my cheats to work.
