Clearing the Photo Backlog

I set up the light booth last Saturday and captured a bunch of the miniatures that have been sitting beside my workbench for weeks (or months, in some cases). The link’s in the page header. Most of it’s the batch of Battletech figures I’ve been failing to work on on over the past couple of years, but there’s one ultramodern and a couple of fantasy figures in there too.

I have a bunch more ultramoderns and related figures, but I’m gonna want to set up the Battlesystems modular terrain and do some more detailed background/terrain work.

The backdrops on this batch all came out of Jon Hodgon’s Backdrops and Sci-Fi Backdrops collections, available from Handiwork Games. I was a Kickstarter backer for these and this was the first time I’d deployed them. I’m quite taken with the results.

WIP VI

On the workbench, still needing some detail work: Reaper Miniatures’ Cassiatta:

This was a free promotional figure from Main Street Magic, Miniatures & More, a reward for buying $40+ of Reaper product (more on that later). The sculpt and Reaper’s page make it clear that Cassiatta is supposed to be eeeeeeevil, but I wanted to be deliberately obtuse. The foliage visible out my window suggested a palette. Now she’s something like a spring-aligned eladrin fighter.
