I painted Ral Partha's Aerial Servant with Pizza, from their Weird Fantasy line, to represent the ghost of a butler that the PCs in my current D&D game are going to be facing. Definitely a silly miniature but here he is. Hopefully the players will underestimate him, evil laugh, evil laugh...

Grenadier Shambling Mound
Here is the Grenadier Shambling Mound from the same "Denizens of the Swamp" set that I posted the basilisk from earlier.
I feel like the photo I took makes my brushstrokes look huge and a bit sloppy but overall I'm satisfied with this mini. I've always loved plant-based monsters for some reason and I tried to paint him with the cover illustration of the box set in mind.
I tried to use a similar (but slightly duller) coloring under the eyes like you can see in the detail of the painting below. I'm not sure if that's supposed to be source lighting from glowing eyes or just a coloration in the facial area of this beast, but I went with it.
More monsters on the way...
