Miniature Review

Most of the boats come with its own auxiliary. In most cases it's a small ship, but as I want to paint them together with the main ships I won't cover them here. That leave two miniatures, the Grimnir's Thunder's Dirigible and the Seadrake's Dragon.

Both are fairly simple miniatures but add a bit of variety so there's something other than ships to move around. They fit nicely with their corresponding parent ships and make me wish maybe there had been a few more of them to mix things up a bit more.

As the colours become brighter, they should be focused closer and closer around the waves.

Roundup

These were pretty quick to paint and as you can see in one of the photos below I may have painted them at the same time as some other miniatures that I'll be posting about next!
