Painting a D&D Reaper Cleric Priest Adventurer

You don't always need a lot of contrasting colors to paint a miniature. Sometime you can just keep it simple.
Miniature is Reaper Dungeon Dwllers: Ailene, Female Cleric.

Doc, I've been watching this channel for many years and I have to say the D&D series has been my favorite.

[@bencoomer2000]

Always nice.

[@stefans.2834]

nice! Thanks so much, I realy like this color scheme. Will use it as inspiration for some 18th / 19th century minis.

[@user-ro1cs5hp5e]

Merry Christmas!

[@woodslore8537]

Maybe the gemstone is magic? Maybe the cleric follows the trickster deity, so its just painted to look like a gem stone.

If you're terrible at hand painting then you should probably hand paint more often. Personally, I think you do pretty well with hand painting. This is a nice looking miniature paint. It's not ultra-vibrant and over-saturated, but that makes it a bit more realistic, and I like that. My favorite part is the yellow hand painted lines on the cloak. It really adds a lot.

[@thebrewgeek]

Gemstone shield? Heck yeah! She turned out great.

[@warrenraper6663]

Some time soon I will be playing in a light hearted and silly game, and I wanted to paint my PC to match the game. Any tips on how to paint a light hearted, and a little bit Cartoonish character without it looking bad.

[@lordbiscuitthetossable5352]

Hmmm, considered painting in a cell shaded style? Kinda cartoony?

[@bettsdn]

That blue/grey cloak color is perfect.

[@redgreen09]

great stuff like em and gerss what HAVE GOOD XMASS to youz

[@jamescrawford8538]

I got to watch all these videos to get good

[@davidwilliams4837]

Wow. Beautifully done.

[@pontiac6548]

That's such a great paint job, I'm a fan of restricted use of colour for when its done well like in this instance it demonstrates good balance of composition ie a bit of fore thought goes a long way. Thanks for the vid Doc.

F'ing awesome.... 👍👍

[@amateurengineer2720]

What size brush are you using? And how do you keep it pointy?

[@DrWhom]

suck and twirl after you wash them

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Most 2 and 1. Quality brushes last longer and clean them regularly.

[@lordbiscuitthetossable5352]

Neat, I really wanted to paint those colours well. I love that grey effect.

[@randygagliano4929]

I've been looking for shadow grey but can't find it. Would sombre grey be a suitable substitute?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Those are the same color. Vallejo annoying changes the names quite often.

[@randygagliano4929]

@@ThePaintingClinic Thank you. I thought that was the case when I looked at the Spanish name on the bottles. I asked to make sure.

[@elongatedmusket7430]

This one is epic.

[@ruaridhmackenzie3215]

Really really nice paint job as always.

[@CosmicDuskWolf]

I think clerics with some color is better then ome painted white myself. Awsome paint scheme.

[@CanistSyaoran]

When you give 2 colors for the shade you are painting, is that a 50/50 mix or just an unknown ratio of the 2 paints you used to get that particular shade?

[@lordbiscuitthetossable5352]

I think it's generally 50/50, though playing around with the described recipes is good. The thing to notice about painting tutorials is that the brand/type of paint doesn't really matter; as long as you understand how that paint is effective and you have effective technique.

[@ThePaintingClinic]

The ratios are whatever is needed at the time. It all depends on the colors being used and the quality desired. I do it by eye most of the time. Just add some of the lighter color so it's obviously a bit lighter. If it's too stark go back and add a bit of the darker color in the mix.

[@joeythegoth]

You sir are a painting wizard

[@NoTimeForLipBalm]

Amazing stuff as always!

[@CanistSyaoran]

Did you use Dark Prussian Blue for the cloak base coat?

[@TheRunesmythe]

I'm pretty sure the base color is Oxford Blue.

[@maxbrandt6]

Nicely done.

[@ex-voto]

Very nice, beautifully done. Did you enjoy painting a metal miniature?

[@ThePaintingClinic]

Still the best material for painting.

[@milatv5404]

@@ThePaintingClinic I agree ✌🏼
