Miniature Review

When I bought Eric was sold as part of the Goblin King Games King's Coffers 2025, I thought I couldn't just buy one miniature. As I love goblins I had to pick up this little guy too. I'm not sure if he is fully a goblin, but he's close enough!

He's really tiny, but I love the face and trunk like nose. He also has spines and a scorpion like tail so there's a lot going on with him despite the size. My only criticism is that his stance is a bit boring, but beyond that I think he's great.

Roundup

It turned out to be a fairly simple paint job, I didn't want to spend ages on him given his size. I was most concerned about the skin as I wasn't sure what colors to use, but the contrast paint came out almost exactly how I wanted so I was careful not to apply to many highlights and ruin it.
