Games Workshop's Archer



The archer is a test using Reaper Pro-Paints for a class I'm teaching to elementary school age children. In the classroom we are using the paint-kits #1 & #2 by Reaper Miniatures.

I happened to have a bunch of Games Workshop Brettonian archers on the shelf which I picked up from e-bay cheap. So one of them became my study. I used 16 out of the 17 pots of Reaper paint in my possession.
