Someone on eBay was selling a large lot of loose, unpainted figurines. Glancing at the photos, I could see a couple pieces I was missing, so I took a shot. It turned out to have ten Goblin Trooper figurines. But all in the same variant. There are two sculpts of this figurine with two separate poses. Someone must have a stack of Goblin Trooper B sitting in a box somewhere.
This was a good opportunity for me to tighten up my workflow. I tend to paint very slowly and methodically. Working with five very small figurines at the same time got me thinking about how to use economical gestures and how to work on specific layers completely before moving on. I’m not super thrilled with how these turned out, but they’re not bad either. I still have one more Goblin Trooper sitting in a combo box. It’s variant B, so I’ll let that one sit for a while. I have five more almost finished and I’m basing them differently. I think I’m on to orcs after that.
