After finishing the Goblin and Rats<\/a>, I decided to practice by painting actual humans. I selected Horace “Action” Johnson<\/a> and The Black Mist<\/a>. These were two more models that I got in the original Reaper Bones Kickstarter<\/a>. I went with a Confederate take on The Black Mist and, while I learned a lot, I think it could have turned out a lot better.
