Critical Role figures

 A friend asked me to paint a few figures from them, from Critical Role (which I have no personal knowledge or interest in, but they provided reference pictures, so I didn't have to have any knowledge anyway). Since I'm not so familiar with the subject, there'll be less words, but the figures look good. So, enjoy.

First up, Vox Machina, their first campaign


Several of the miniatures deserve to be shown from behind as well. Both the tattoos of the barbarian and the fancy (not-quite-)rainbow cloak of the druid are especially nice, I'd say.

Then, we have the Mighty Nein (CRs second campaign)


Not as many exceptional backsides this time, but still some. Especially the one in the middle, which drove me slightly nuts (less nuts than plaid, and I painted a whole army with that, so not too bad...)

Then, finally, some bonus figures


The last picture was described to me as "a mage and his clones", and I must say, I like how they turned out, with reasonably discreet color coding between the clones (useful if you need to keep track of status effects or HP on several of them), and the mage himself being a bit more special but still on the same theme.

That was fun, but I significantly underestimated how long it would take me. I'm going to blame the fact that every last one of them is unique, so I couldn't set up my usual assembly line painting style. But hey, useful practice none-the-less.

Now, I have some dragonborn for the same friend, and then on with the Silver Bayonet.
