WIP - Undead Minotaur

Another addition to my Undead Classical Greek army - an undead minotaur from the new company Die Hard Miniatures owned by veteran sculptor Tim Prow.

Prow has produced work for a whole ton of companies, most notably the now defunct Heartbreaker Miniatures. Lately, he's been a driving force behind the Oldhammer movement, producing models in the GW style from the 80's & 90's. Sadly, I was around for the originals myself.

This figure was first made available in their initial 2015 Kickstarter. They have put out some nice undead models since, including four skeletal snake men. Plus they'll be running an undead Kickstarter in October. October! I can't wait that long!

A nice ogre-size minotaur, he's now tearing up the field in my Undead Classical Greek army.


Various parts.


Primed black and zenithal highlighted. The flesh is a mix of Reaper Olive and Pure Grey. The muscle and guts are based with GW's Blood for the Blood God technical paint. The bone is Aged Bone by Vallejo Air. Flesh and bone washed with GW's Agrax Earthshade.




Fully assembled. The axe has been painted with Gunmetal from Vallejo and then textured using GW's Typhus Corrosion technical paint and then dry-brushed with some of the GW technical Ryza Rust to do the rust effect. The armor is painted using GW's Warplock Bronze and then coated with GW technical Nihilakh Oxide for the verdigris effect.
