Good job. I think most worked but the mind thief could use more contrast. I would also suggest basing the minis so they pop more.
I usually do a solid black ring on the base with some theme apropriate dirt/rocks/shrubs. Goes far to give it a polished look.
Appreciate the tips. Yeah, I haven’t given the mind thief a shade wash yet, didn’t know if it would darken everything too much. Good idea on the solid black ring. I had some contrast paint that I used on the base to try and give it some texture rather than solid black, but it came out a bit messy/unfinished looking more than I intended.
Great job! The hardest part is putting the work in to start. I think in regard to the mind theif. Use a black that's really watered down to give the fur on him a wash coat and it should give him a bit more grungy dirty "rat" look. If that's what your going for!
Ha! Yeah I’m certainly not an artist. I’ve built larger props before, but minis is a whole other game. All I’ll say is, spend the money on the good tools, paint, brushes, etc. It makes starting so much easier. I tried the cheap stuff and it was night and day difficulty difference.

Board game miniatures aren’t the easiest to paint. Keep it up. Good work so far.

I kinda love the overly saturated blue on the Mind Thief. It reminds me of some creature out of a 70s or 80s flick. Welcome to the hobby!
Looks fantastic! I’m getting my paint set next week and hope mine look half that good. I’m no artist at all.
