These are some trolls from Super Dungeon Explore (the Mistmourn Coast Warband).

As with most of my own Super Dungeon set, I painted each one in its own color scheme.

The yellow troll colors I chose because they match the trolls from Fantasy Forest. Fantasy Forest is an old TSR game I played when I was five- it is basically like Candy Land except that you get ambushed by orcs and kobolds along the way.

The spawn point was just perfectly designed for an OSL effect, so I had to go that direction with it:

Great paint...definitely not a fan of the sculpts, but they look like they're for a very specific aesthetic (almost Chibi-esque).

No almost about it- these are Super Dungeon minis.

Ah, well that explains it. I didn't see that in your post before.

Part of the Super Dungeon style is actually for the minis to get less chibi as they get larger.

It works because of the videogames they're based on- the larger the enemies were in the old 16 bit games, the less likely they were to be superdeformed:

Gorgeous!

Patient blending or airbrush? (I've recently been getting excited about the idea of getting one!)

Great job there. Now I can't get the song out of my head.



Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Wet pallet. I do not own an airbrush.
