That’s not entirely true. He CAN die if you disrupt his ability to regenerate. But that headline would have been enormous. Like his butt.
Bringing it back around.

This Venom Troll print from Epic Miniatures was a speedy one-session paint job. We started supporting their Patreon about five months ago, and Devon was happy to finally get a chance to paint a min from their impressive collection. Impressive like this guy’s butt.
I’m sorry. I just can’t stop.
Devon is in love with a new-to-him oil-paint technique he picked up from Secret Weapon, which he used for the base. Water-mixable oils are easier to clean up than traditional oils, but we recommend keeping mineral spirits on hand anyway to make your job easier. Secret Weapon recommends Phtalo Green, but Devon likes Sap Green, so we link to that paint in the materials below.
