Finished Miniatures
On my last free day of 2 weeks without work, I want to show you some of the miniatures I finished in the last 3-4 months. Like on my last miniatures the two ladys from Darksword, I wanted to achieve a realistic atmosphere on the mini or especially on their bases.
Nothing more to say, here are the pictures, comments are welcome as always ;)
Arya Stark and King Robert:
Two great sculpts from Darksword, especially the small guy was a lot of fun to paint, I painted him on one day.
The Last of the Mohicans:
This miniature reminds me of the movie "the last of the Mohicans" one of the best movies of all time. I wanted to capture this feeling or at least the scene of the movie, when the first Indian ran out of the forest.. :)
You should check the soundtrack of the movie, very inspiring.. for me, maybe for you too :D
The last of the Mohicans - Soundtrack
Mid-Nor Bust:
This miniature is for sell, write me please if you are interested.
The miniature was done of a normal Mid-Nor Warrior from Rackham, by cutting of the half of his body, I didn't like the rest of the sculpt.
I have to sell some of my miniatures in the future, I guess I paint too much. Feel free to contact me if you are interested.
Let me know what you think about the miniatures,
I wish you a good start with working in the new year.. :D
Best regards, Oli

¿Arya Stark and his father, King Robert?
Arya Stark is the daughter of Eddard Stark (his sigil is a Direwolf) :-S
Dear Oli,
great miniatures! I just love the first one, eventhough as a fan of George R.R. Martins work I have to say that Arya Stark is the daughter of Lord Eddard Stark (a good friend to King Robert Baratheon whos miniature you've painted).
Great... now I have to buy all these miniatures. I wish you wouldn't have showed them on here ;)
Thank you for the inspiration.
Great job mate, the bases on the first two are brilliant - very realistic!
Mind sharing where you got the grasses/ the product name?
Hello Oli,
Your minis are really nice, I particularly like the grass and nature elements. Can you detail how you made them ? (I see that CMDante has the same opinion ;) )
Very nice stuff Oli, and you have brought natural basing to another level, really superb work.
Great work mate. As has been said Eddard is Arya's father.
Love the Last and Mohicans and love the figure. Who is the manufactuer? Im start to collect some figures for the French and Indian Wars.
I changed the Arya and Robert problem to solution - will write more 2morrow ...
Couldn´t see the pics.
Yepp! Pictures are gone - I already contacted Oli, sorryio! Will soon be solved!
What more can say? You got some mad skillz. Also you're a little master vegetation bases.
Thanks for all your answers, I already want to continue painting.
@Erik: thanks for the info, Darksword miniatures are good invested money.. hehe ;)
@CMDante & Who: I have not planned to write an articel about it in the next time, it is done of many different products. And their are still things to improve, like sculpting trees.
@Flags of War: I collect this miniatures too, you should check out this store: www.thunderboltmountain.com and switch to the 1/48 French and Indian War category. Awesome miniatures and they are cheap. But the casts are not the best.
I really love your shown pieces here, Oli. My favourite is Robert and Arya - somehow I like it the most. The bases are fantastic in their realism, very inspiring and your painting at such small spaces is again impressive. The bust won`t fit in my personal taste, but that is just my personal taste. Painting works fine on her, just don't like the sculpt ... keep on happy painting, lil' monkeybrother!
