Now this is a real cool miniature I am very proud of – an Adult Red Dragon in Dungeons and Dragons, for which I used the Fire Dragon miniature from Reaper Bones. Just like the Young Fire Dragon, this beast called Inferno was part of an ambush group of Red Dragon Cultists hunting my players in the Tyranny of Dragons D&D campaign.
Time for some dragons! In the Tyranny of Dragons campaign, my players were to face at least one of each type of chromatic dragon. They already faced an Adult Green Dragon that I already posted some years ago. I didn’t have miniatures for all colors at that time, but I had some models for Red dragons. Here is the young fire dragon!
There comes a time in the life of a Dungeon Master, where your players are up against an undead wizard, a lich. These creatures are cunning opponents, often the big bad evil guy of an adventure or a whole campaign. My players were headed to Thay, where undead wizards reign supreme. A good excuse as any to use a lich miniature!
My players were headed to the tomb of the draco-lich Ebondeath in the Mere of the Dead Men in my Tyranny of Dragons campaign. I wanted to have a death knight there, and OF COURSE the Reaper Bones II Kickstarter also had a fitting miniature to offer here as well.
More skeletons from the Bones II Kickstarter! This set featured skeletons with rags of armor. It included each one of Skeleton Guardian Archer, Spearman, Axeman, 2H Sword, and Sword/Shield combination. The minis look cool and are useful as standard monsters on the game table!
You can never have too many undead monsters for your players! Three Barrow Wardens were included in the second Reaper Bones Kickstarter – undead skeleton warriors with heavy armor and weapons. They can be used as advanced skeleton enemies and look really, really cool!
It’s time to post some more undead monsters again! Part of the second Reaper Bones Kickstarter were some more translucent miniatures. One of them was a purple Shadow (77369) miniature. My players were headed into a tomb with undead, so this was the next enemy to paint!
Coming up in my D&D campaign for Rise of Tiamat, I needed a couple of Yuan-Ti. In a time before WizKids Nolzur’s Miniatures, Reaper had some nice and cheap snakemen figures. I used the then new Bones Snakemen Warriors from the Kickstarter (77153) and some older models (02498) for my Yuan-Ti tribe
Oh how much my players loathe this monster – the Mind Flayer. Or “Bathalian” in Reaper’s Bones lineup. Here he comes with three Intellect Devourers aka “Mind Eaters” and a couple of shadow tentacles.

There are complex miniatures that are difficult to paint and there’s the opposite of that. The Reaper Bones Stone Golem (77171) absolutely falls into the latter category. With almost exclusively using drybrushing, this mini only took an hour.
