This is an adventuring party I created for the Iron Kingdoms RPG. Our group has been playing for years, but this is the first time we've really gotten into playing Menites (there's an issue of them not playing well with non-humans).

Our group started their own order of knights who like to emphasize that "there's a place for all at the feet of Menoth." In role playing terms, it has been a lot of fun- they're quite condescending to the non-humans, but at the same time, they try to convert the dirty children of the Wurm rather than simply killing them all off.

They all started life as Reaper Bones minis:

Warcaster/Priest:



Paladin of the Order of the Wall/Man at Arms:



Adherent of the Order of the Fist/Cutthroat



Military Officer/Spy (impersonating an Ordic Aristocrat)

Good work!

Looking (and sounding) cool

Nice work. I like the use of Reaper's stuff for Iron Kingdoms.

Yeah- Reaper's line is really versatile. It is hard to find things that they don't do, you know?

I think it's pretty great that you can tell who painted those minis just by a quick glance. Although personally I don't really like your style, it's often times to bright and comicy for me, it's remarkable how unique you paint and that's meant as a huge compliment!

Great work as always man, I really like the cream color used for the whites.

Also It might be my screen but the skin tone on the female model looks a bit off.

Thanks.

The 'comic' look is probably coming from how dark I keep my lining- on gaming minis especially I tend to simply use black, and if not, I tend to use something very dark. A good contrast and bright paint job that also has very dark lining tends to give minis a sharp "comic book" feel.
