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!
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!
Not really an undead monster, but a very similar miniature than the last one. The Shadow Demon (77368) was also part of the second Kickstarter and came as a translucent purple miniature. I painted both of them more or less simultaneously, so here it is!
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
Let’s return to some unremarkable miniatures for once. Every so often, you need some ugly monsters for your players. Something like these Oozes, Slimes and Jellies from Otherworld Miniatures! Normally, you don’t really need miniatures for that kind of monster, more so now when everybody is playing online. But hey, I got them 7 years ago in a sale and sometimes, you only have one hour to paint.
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.
Finally, a real dragon! Meet Glazhael, the Cloudchaser – A mature White Dragon living in the ice caves beneath Skyreach Castle. I used the Reaper Bones Silver Dragon from the 2nd Kickstarter as his miniature.
