It’s been awhile<\/a> since I’ve posted, let alone painted anything, like this warband of Kobolds! Hopefully you’re following along on our Instagram<\/a>, if not come find us and hang out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve spent some time working on a few projects, but I wanted to get back into the habit of explaining what my process is hoping that it might help someone, somewhere. I picked up a few packs of Kobolds from a Rebel Minis<\/a> kickstarter<\/a> awhile back, and it was a good break from a large project I have going and it felt great to actually finish something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Painting a Warband of Kobolds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Below I’ll list the actual paints and materials I used to paint this warband of kobolds, but my goal with this project was to paint as fast as I could to a decent table top standard. What that means is I wanted everything to have color on it, maybe some washes to mix things in. No edge highlighting or more complex techniques were used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used my airbrush to apply primer, then a yellow brown color over the whole body and then from the top down a flat red to take care of the skin\/tails\/etc. Following the airbrushing, I painted the Loin Cloths and Cloaks one of the three colors I list below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, I painted the wooden and metallic colors to cover pretty much everything in the hands of these guys and decided to highlight the models by painting the buttons and clasps a brass color. I did end up painting the eyes black because the kobolds faces looked even weirder without this detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I finished off by basing them with some flock and static grass and now I intend to field this group of Kobolds in games of Song of Blades and Heroes with my kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
