WizKids Red Slaad - WZK90251

 

This model is going to be sold on it's own in the summer of 2021, however I picked it up as part of the WZK90292 product title D&D Nolzur's Marvellous Miniatures Red Slaad Paint Night Kit - wow, quite a title!  The kit comes with a dozen pots of Vallejo paint, two paint brushes, a water cup, and the Red Slaad miniature itself.  I picked this kit up at a hobby store in Dallas a few months ago when we were there for my son's hockey tournament.  I've been wanting to paint this up as I just love these new Slaad models by Wizkids.

I did paint this as part of a Twitch stream - I think Twitch only keeps videos up for about two weeks so you can watch the 4 hour stream until about mid July - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1068407028
