Getting Prehistoric

Final batch of minis for 2019. These are Reaper Bones raptors and pygmy mammoth (still quite large though).

I took my inspiration for the raptors from big cats like leopard and cheetahs. And that made me want to make one of them melanistic, like a black leopard.


I painted the mammoth a pretty standard reddish brown.

    1. Thanks! It's a mammoth new year!

      IN a way it's getting back to my childhood fascination with dinosaurs and other prehistoric critters. I do have a good few other ancient critters here and there.

      I had fun painting them. Nice change from painting humans/humanoids with equipment and all.

    1. Thanks, Iain! They were fun to paint. I like that each raptor is a different pose, too.
