This is my first post at CoolMini of what I hope will be a continuing trend for me. I am going to do a series of reaper mini's and put them up here at the site. I've been painting mini's for about five months now, and consider myself an intermediate/beginner at this. I'm hoping to achieve smooth results, and so far, this is the best I've done.

Comments are welcome and advise is appreciated. In the near future I intend to put this, along with others, up for auction.

Great miniature, nice paint job. One of my favorite Reaper minis, by the way (who doesn't love Klocke? Communists, that's who). Really loving the highlights in the hair, but they are noticably lacking in the back. It seems like you didn't pay as much attention to the back (with the notable exception of the very nice "Green Knight" style scabbard) as you did to the front.

Still, beautiful job. She's on my metal mountain to paint in the near future too.

Note to self, first tip received at coolminiornot: Anyone who doesn't like Klocke IS a commie, also, Klocke himself could possibly be a communist. :)

Anyhow, thanks for the comments. Should be getting another up here soon enough.

Luckily, I like Klocke sculpts, so half the war is won anyway. Let us away now, we can't be seen frateranising with this red scum!

I like Klocke sculpts except for his passion for putting 50 bajillion buckles on every mini...and the huge sausage fingers he tends to sculpt...I love the way he poses his minis and his armor sculpting is amazing.

Great job on this, you are showing much promise!
