Many years ago in the late 70s and 80s I had a lot of D&D miniatures. What exactly happened to them I am not sure – their fate is lost in the dim dark past. As a change from painting Napoleonics and Zulus I thought I would have a go at modelling and painting some new ones.
First cab off the rank is this Invisible Stalker. I used to have the old Grenadier version but acquiring one of those is pretty hard these days – they are almost impossible to find. So I made one myself, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it turned out. Without bragging too much I think it is some of my best brushwork to date.

Lovely work Brian. I hope you don’t think I’m having a go here, but is it possible you may have missed a bit on the Stalker’s top left shoulder (just beside the equipment strap)?
It could just be reflection or a trick of the light, of course…

Excellent work. You painted the invisibility so well that one could think there is nothing on the base.
Funny thought: Could you paint a miniature up as a dungeon wall so that it fuses with the background?

I don’t see why not. You should see my Flames of War “Gone to Ground” bases.
