Mini of the Week 6-28-19

Welcome back to Mini of the Week, where every Friday I will find a miniature from around the web that exemplifies an aspect of our hobby and share it with you.

Dreadblade Harrow by wilkzswetra on Cool Mini or Not

I love a well painted Nighthaunt model, and this guy ticks all of the boxes. The Dreadblade Harrows is one of the nicest sculpts from the range, and I really like how they used such a limited palette on it. The Nighthaunt models definitely reward you for using less colors if done correctly. The teals and blacks give it a suitably spooky feel, but also feels a bit 80s, which is pretty cool. I love how vibrant the teals are. They really pop against the blacks. By keeping the highlights on the blacks within the same color range it makes it all feel cohesive.

The use of the reddish browns in areas is a nice spot color that subtly contrasts with the teal without screaming for attention. Everything is super smooth and crisp, with some insane blends between ligh and dark, like on the horse's skull. This is a really cool scheme for the Nighthaunts.

Be sure to check out more views of it over on Cool Mini or Not.

Until next time,
