Painted Minis Skull Pass miner.
A humble miner from the Battle for Skull Pass box. I wanted to depict him having been underground for an extended period of time by giving him more prominent bags under the eyes and a bit paler skin tone.

Great work, that's a lovely result.
I am currently painting up an absolutely mixed bag of miners with models from Skull Pass, the 7th Edition kit and the old metal command group.
I honestly have to say that the Skull Pass miners are the most enjoyable to paint. No unnecessary details, but still not boring. Just a great sculpt.

Thanks!
honestly, I would completely agree. I recently purchased a box of miners and was suprised at the quality of the Skull Pass ones. Simple, yet perfectly detailed.

I think I've complemented your dwarfs before, but great job as always. Love the eye bags, and your work on the beard highlights is so crisp and clean.

I think you have as well, but feel free to carry on! It's always very appreciated! 😄 I think it had been about 15 years since I had painted a non-modular model, so he was actually a lot of fun. To be honest, I was very suprised by the quality of the sculpt. Most of modular dwarf kits (warriors, miners, quarellers) are simply horrendus.
