I used the technique where I loaded up the brush with dark red, then I pulled back on it with my finger and let it splatter forward. The card art includes blood splatter, and figuring we would probably never play this character anyway (we didn't), it was a chance to try it. Second, this is one of very few figures that I've 'spattered' with paint. First, the bonesaw in his hand was much too long, so I chopped off a bit of it. The sawbones is one figure about which I have specific memories. In case it does not go without saying, there are spoilers ahead for those who are still playing! This post is for people who have finished the game or who don't care about surprises. For most, then, I have little recollection of specific techniques or colors, so the commentary below is minimal. Many of them were unplayed, and all of them were painted before mid-August two years ago. Whenever we unlocked a new class, I would prime and paint the miniature, so that it would be ready to play as soon as another one retired.

Since we're finally and irrevocably done with Gloomhaven, I decided that it's time to share my set of painted miniatures. This morning, we tore down the box, unsleeved the cards, and opened the four character classes that we had not unsealed as part of our two-player campaign. We didn't complete every single scenario, but we definitely finished the main story arc. The last time we played Gloomhaven was August 24, 2019, and so I think it's fair to say that we are done with the game. I have a blog post from March 2018 about painting the six starting characters, and he and I coauthored an article in Well Played about our play experience. My son and I had a great time playing Gloomhaven.
