Pants painting

Well, here she is, the finished Miko (Well, almost, I still need to flock the base):

As I would be using much of the same colours, she was joined on the painting table by one of her travelling companions, the itinerant priest:
While the mika maintains some effort to remain neat and presentable, you can see the priest just goes about in his travel-stained clothes.

Both miniatures are from the Perry Samurai range, with some conversion. The Mika has had her hakama added, and the priest has the chest of drawers added to his back. (The RPG character he represents has sworn a sacred vow to only own what he can carry with him, hence the huge travelling case. When creating the character, another friend asked "Why not just get a horse?" To which both the player of the priest and me exclaimed simultaneously: "Do you have any idea how heavy horses are, he could never lift one, let alone carry it!" :D I love my RPG group... )

Now that these are done, I intend to get back to painting my Escher, as well as building some terrain for a mate.

See you next time!

    1. Thanks Michael, I'm quite happy with them, let's hope the players are too (they haven't seen them yet).

  2. They are as nice in the flesh as they are in their pictures.....however the quality of your bases bothers me, as your rocks are so damn big? These people wear wooden sandals, please think about that before one of your models breaks an ankle. Or 2. :D

    1. They're definitely in a more rocky part of Japan... I was in a bit of a hurry to base these, and I couldn't find my finest grade of rocks. I'm hoping the flock will reduce the effect a bit.
