Heroes of Might and Magic: Last five models of wave one

These were the last five models from the Heroes of Might and Magic 3 board game. I had planned to just quickly finish them off with contrast paints, but getting a golden button for this project and having Ben mention how much effort I’d been putting in motivated me to put in a bit more effort.

The greens were waaagh! flesh highlighted with skarsnik green. The browns were painted mournefang brown and highlighted with dethclaw brown. The bones were painted zandri dust and highlighted with screaming skull. The metal bits were painted ironbreaker and washed nuln oil. The black areas were painted corvus black and washed with nuln oil. The skin was painted bugman’s glow and highlighted up with kislev flesh. The stones were painted administratum grey.

The stone bases were painted rhinox hide and highlighted up with zamesi desert. The desert base was painted steel legion drab and highlighted up with balor brown then washed seraphim sepia. The base rims were painted abaddon black.

And with that, the Heroes of Might and Magic 3 models are done…

…except wave two arrived the same week these models made it on to my painting desk. I’d guess there’s just as many models in wave two as there were in wave one!
