Delighted to have found an excellent #Grogsquad artist to replace this 'placeholder' image for the #DiceOnTheBorderlands ttrpg mini convention next month (27.4.24)
This weekend I'll be confirming the capacity of the local venues for the (optional!) Friday night pint and Saturday after party food🥗🍻
Gold red and blue painted frescos at the top of an ancient Greek temple
An undercoated circular temple miniature diaorama in 25mm scale
Two images of the sane ancient street. One shows the modern ruins, the other the brightly coloured artists impression of what it would have looked like in ancient times
The same 25mm scale miniature temple diorama now partly painted in reds greens and gold
Doing some prep for #DiceOnTheBorderlands mini-convention on 27th April in Chepstow Castle. I'm a terrible painter but love @fenrisgames.com models & hope he forgives me. Went looking for inspiration for colours schemes in the ancient world, and so far I'm having a hoot with this mini.
