Happy Tuesday and welcome back to Tabletop Thoughts!
This week, I am working on painting a BUNCH of miniatures. I was hoping to do another crafting video this week, but I don’t think that is going to be possible. I am going to a Viking festival this Saturday, so my crafting time will be limited.

I finally got the Snakepeople on the painting table. I am going with Absolution Green for the skin, Forest Sprite for the underbellies, and Purple Alchemy for the mouths. I like the way they are turning out so far. I still need to do the fangs and other parts like clothing and weapons, but I am making progress on the group.

Just when I thought I would have a majority of the snake people finished up this week, EC3D Designs drops more snakepeople on me when we unlocked a stretch goal on the Beasts and Baddies Vol 2 Campaign! These models look too good not to include in the project.
I have all four of the new snakepeople on my Elegoo Mars 3 right now. I printed them overnight and will get them cleaned up when I get home.

After the snakes are complete, I might do some Bullywogs. I have models from The Printing Goes Ever On, Brite Minis, and now EC3D Designs. That should be enough to build up a small gathering of frogpeople with unique poises. Here are some examples:

The Printing Goes Ever On has 3 different Models.

EC3D Designs has 4 unique models, plus there is a giant toad included in the Beasts and Baddies Vol 2 set as well. I will include it since I added in the “normal” snakes with the snakepeople.

Brite Minis has 4 unique models.
If you are looking for great-looking models that can be printed on a resin or FDM printer, you can’t go wrong with EC3D Designs on MyMiniFactory.com. His miniatures have a lot of character, and most can be printed supportless. There have been a few different campaigns for miniatures, and they are available after the campaign closes in case you missed out.
Brite Minis is another great source of supportless FDM miniatures. He has a Patreon that gives out ALL of the miniatures in the catalog for only $5/month, with new models coming out regularly.
Keep on gaming!
I’ve got some Forest Sprite Speedpaint coming this week, it’s one of the options I want to look at for some space Orks, I’m hoping it looks a little less yellowish than your pictures.
It looks a lot like the picture. There is Orc Slin Speed Paint that is more green.
Not sure want green, but your picture looks very yellow, not green at all. Once the paint arrives I’ll try it over several undercoat colors
