I picked up this model at the 2017 Reapercon from the vendor DGS Games who was there showcasing their models and a scrimmish game called Freeblades. I met Julie Price and she showed off their beautiful models and this one caught my eye because not only is it a great looking model but I figured it would be easy to incorporate into a D&D game as a forest monster. As a small gaming company, the pricing is a bit on the high side - I paid $24.99 at the time but I see on the website the model is now $29.99.
While most of their models have the sculptor name - unfortunately this one does not.
I dug out the Reaper paints on this one along with Vallejo ink. I also can't say enough about using the Golden Maple Drybrush Set. Previously this model sat on the shelf because I was frustrated with drybrushing. With these new brushes, there's lots of control of the drybrushing process - highly recommended and makes the process fun!
