Vintage Ral Partha mummy

This is from Ral Partha's Personalities and Things that go Bump in the Night collection. Listed and pictured as 01-020 in Lost Minis Wiki, it is also listed but without a picture in my 1978 Ral Partha catalog as ES-20. I just recently purchased this, and with no date or code on the base plate I can't tell if this mini was from '78 or if it is an update.

I painted this with inks, and was surprised at how well the details came out from the wrappings. With just the primer coat on, it didn't appear to have too much relief on the wrappings, but as the painting progressed, it began to pop as variations in color were added. The left arm, unfortunately, is cast a bit thicker and lacks detail. I'm not sure of the reason behind that, but it's a shame as much of the wrapping is quite good.

I don't do any base detailing on my minis (just a personal preference), however for this one I may add some grit or a rock or two. It seems like that would add quite a bit to the fig overall. 

I have a wight and a hireling carrying a chest that I have had primered for awhile. Yesterday I brushed in highlights and shadows on them. 

Brushes and Bases blog has started a 30 figures in 30 days project and I'm going to follow closely and try to keep motivated to see if I can get 30 minis painted in the month of July.
