The Battle with Miniatures

 
Doctor Hugh

Doctor Hugh Originally uploaded by mafiu
A while ago I heard a news item on The Signal about a company called Heresy producing a ‘Captain Nathan’ figure. I bought this immediately and it sits in my collection mounted and undercoated, like most of my collections. But I’ve been watching the site with interest as to what other figures might come along. There has been a Rev Shepherd miniature and a HayLee one. I’m waiting for the River and the Inara ones personally. But recently Doctor Hugh and Dr Masterson arrived, and I purchased the two crew models and a Doctor Hugh. I like what they are doing with this. I also think this miniature is pretty excellent. He’s got the pose perfect. So in the end I copied the paint scheme that is on Heresy’s site, and am pleased with the results. I opted for blue eyes, although I’m not sure if Mr Tennant’s eyes are that colour. After a Google image search to see what colour the Doctor’s Converse were, I discovered to my annoyance that he actually wears a brown pinstripe suit. But my model’s suit is staying grey. I spent a while trying to work out if pinstripes would be visible at this scale but in the end decided I had better things to do with my time. Mal’s trousers are painted. HayLee has her basecoat. But that’s for another time.

I painted Games Workshop miniatures when I was a teenager, and have started painting them again since my son has become interested in them. After subscribing to Battle games in middle earth I thought I would try and blog my progress through trying to paint them all. This blog is just about miniatures, not about the rest of my life, I do other things!
