Another miniature going to a good home from my bi-weekly Dungeons and Dragons game. This one is a monk requested by one of the players in the group. Again, another metal miniature - I liked all the detail stuff - the backpack, sleeping pad, cup, rope, etc. However I was disappointed in this particular casting with the face - it didn't appear to be quite right nor as crisp as the display image on Reaper's website.
I went for the earthly tones here - so browns with dark green. I used shadow grey which is a blue/grey for the rope, undergarments, sleeping pad to give it some muted color.
Also, this was sculpted by an artist I don't know - Sylvain Quirion - nor have I seen his/her work prior from Reaper or any other miniature company.
