@equipage, Winsor and Newton serie 7 #1 but a freak number 1, looks more like a 00. As for doing pictures montage, too long.

To my even greater surprise that when I saw Aquarius in week 36 I saw Scorpio making Volomir's list as well this week:...
Thanks alot guys!
I am waiting on some models to arrive in the meantime I am taking a small break, be back soon!

You already know what I think but I am going to say it again; Crazy good painting and ideas with the magazine! TOP NOTCH!
Thanks guys! Thanks for your nice comments!
I gave a bit extra work this week end to wrap this us, it's rare that I feel happy about a finish project but this time I think I am happy.

Those bases are awesome toad!
Love how you do magic with these colors.
Coming along great brother!
Love that Skaven, great job!
I am stunted, was browsing Volomir's list for week 36 and I stumbled on Aquarius... :smile-big: It's the second time I managed to make Volomir's do not miss.
...
Thanks guys, very kind!
@equipage, yes straight lines are harder to do than squiggly patterns and I have to add it's even harder on curved surfaces like a face then on flat surfaces. Also white...
Update on the face.

Happy birthday my brother!
Hey thanks all!
Been busy with other stuff these past few days so not much progress.
Here is the body armor/suit update;
75185
Really nice and disgusting! You're the nurgle champ!
More updates;
The scales face is a real success on Instagram, over my expectations.
75154
75155
Update; I got to say that at the end I was much faster than I the beginning.
75108
Half of the face is now covered in scales.
75085
That scaven looks nice, great start on the big fella!
Thanks! After doing all the scales I am going to use my shading technique with inks. A strong green for cold under shades and a Phoenix orange for hot highlights. The armor will be gold and the eyes...
And growing.
75038
New project, Aquarius bust from Mirico.
75036
Doing a micro freehand scales skin, a long way to go but you get the idea.
75037
Thanks guy! I am kind of in a break right now but I am thinking more Undead next.
Thanks my man John! YOU'RE GOLDEN!
Did a base for him, now he's ready for evershosen.
74583
74584
Thanks guys!
@hairster, yeah I mean for a contest like this I know I did not put 1/10 of what is needed. It will be a crash test dummy for another Kraven King I will be goin to bring to GD 2020....
Thanks KB! Well looks like the Instagram community like him as well so that is my queue to tell me I can bring him to the everchosen category at my local GW store, my goal is not win the sword as...
To bad I am no pro photograph and/or got better camera, these pictures don't do him justice at all. In real it's much better especially under the UV lighs.
Thanks fellas!

74454
Thanks guys!
Close up of the king;
74432
Mean band! Go BAM!
Got sick of the lines, worked on the dude for a change.
74423
Left side is done, exhausting work.
74420
Thanks man! Not silver just white, this is just overexposed picture.
Update;
74409
Thanks guys!
The fluo paints are reallly thin, thinner than milk! They go quickly, they are AB ready though.
Started some more madness.
That magenta in the recesses is really nice!
Update on the king himself;
I removed the mace arm, got rid of forgotten mold lines, finished the whole cloth with the ethereal static effect and glued back the arm with mace.
74372
Cool mini that agent orange! That Stevie looks like a big job to me :beat-up:
Thanks guys!
Can't believe how bad the pictures under black lighs came out, that is not the colors I can see with my eyes at all.
Anyway i edited these pictures so you guys don't develop a neck...
The throne is done for now, not even dry.
Pictures under black lighs coming soon.
74346
74347
74348
Thanks equipage, I think I will be ok I scratched the pigments build up at the bottom of the bottle, I should have enough. I am almost done with the throne and I have some blue green mix left to...
Hehe I used the same colors than on your ship maiden :D
LOL BAM's specialty! What can I say??!! Miniature painting machine!
Nice rich colors you got going in there Phil, reminds me of the 70' s bath anti slip stickers :D
Thanks guys!
Quick update; I redid the throne completely but I ran out of blue fluorescent paint before I could finish. You can get a petty good idea still.
@equipage, thanks I read many...
Thanks bro but I just don't understand, in real it's blue green under the black lights but as soon as I look true a camera lens it's blue... Big camera in manual i tried every settings possible, all...
Thanks guys, ok now some new pictures.
Extremely difficult to photograph under black lighs!!!

It's a recap of the coolest miniature projects that came out during the week, (inspired mostly by what came out on Putty and Paint) he is another Spanish legend and he has these "best weekly".
So...
If it's not in 2020 it will be another year, no pressure. My painting stuff is in drawers for now, waiting to be rested.
Congrats on making the Volomir's list once again, with so many incredible mini painters nowadays it's a great honor.
Thanks bro! Actually I think I will buy a new kit and start over, I learn a few things while doing this one.
Thanks guys, now I just need to find time and motivation to continue :excruciating:
Is that a Reaper's mini?
Yes they will! And the reason why you think they are not so fluorescent now in the picture is because I had to remove a lot of the ligh from the picture.
I am telling you under black ligh it will...
Doing some tests with the fluorescent paints, more work to be done.
74225
I admire your courage for trying this armor thing, I think you did a good job!
The rust master strikes again! Great piece and original base work once again, did the guy just cocooned fron that capsule?
Voted here and on P&P, however the image quality in here is better than on P&P. Do you participate in the everchosen painting contest?
You did a great job on that corroded metal on the Nurgle dude.
Thanks all!
@Equipage, need a lot of determination and focus, but like I said many times the hardest part is to get the right paint consistency, I am always bouncing between adding a drop of paint...
This is hard! Even for me...
73937
The madness begin.
73920
The pattern on the arms wont stay, only the clothes will have patterns. In the meantime I tried my new paint for the real deal.
7390073901
No, this is :disdain:
73887
Awesome work buddy!
Just to see.
73872
Thanks guy!
I have started slowly on the metals since I did not received my paints from greenstuff world, waiting for the fluorescent paints and the candy inks.
73853
I like the night gobos, like the way you did the bottle on the drinking guy!
Thanks all of you, you are too kind with me. Not sure if I deserve all of your nice words since I am not even active in you guys threads. Anyhow I appreciate. I not going to go into details but one...
Thanks all! Sorry i haven't much time to invest in painting and here at the forum, life been a bitch on me and my wife for the past 2 years as left me crippled mentally and physically. If things get...
Thanks I did!
Where can we find a link on that.
Thanks brother!!
Thanks Phil! She's 1/12 scale I think, the tattoo looks bigger then actually is, it's really tinny. The airbrush is fantastic, definitely will help me with a lot of things, get one when you can you...

At the risk of repeating myself, these feathers are so nice looking!
Thanks guy!
@Hairster, that airbrush is so ridiculously sharp! It's so nice you don't even want to put paint in it, and there is a function at the tip that let you control how much you want the...

Update on Vallit;
Airbrush plus stippling plus bit of fine detailing.

Love the plague marine, nice job!
Come join us on Instagram! You will be a star! Plus every single painters are there!
I like the close up shot.

I was always and still scared to paint zombies cause of the skin work.
Nice bud! I hate doing bases, I want to invest 0 time on em! That is why I am doing busts.
Thanks guys! Thanks John my man you'r to kind.
@Dab, with Seraphim it was the first time ever I had tried liquid mask, I guess I was lucky to find a good one. After the Lady Sibilla fiasco I...

72838
72839
Thanks!
I use regular acrylic paint but instead of water to thin down I use dry retardant. The brush cannot be to small, like a 2 squirrel nuts hair brush wont be helpful because since it's so...
Hey that's a cool model!

Nice! Weird to see you doing a robot tho. :D
Thanks!

Thanks guys!
@flu, thanks man glad you like it.

Thanks Kb!

Insane in the membrane!!
@lone, I checked and double checked and rechecked again, that is what I tried to correct and still can't get my finger on it. As for radial line no these are to small, took all of my skills to be...
Thanks guys!!
I was not satisfied with the eyes I redid them.
72613
Thanks Dab! Yeah I saw on the pro's pieces they do the red/pink corners of the eyes. The scale is about 1/12 smaller than my vampire, actually if you look at the last picture on your phone it's...
Update;
72597
Nice!! I wish I could see the eyes tho :eat:
I agree that the cloak and the hair are hard to differentiate and for the skin a bit of red in the highlights would of been top notch since she is...

Thanks guys!
@Hairster, definitely worth the try but like I mentioned many times these paints are hell to use as they are thinner base paints, you will need a brand new set of brushes just for...
Nice stuff all around, I particularly like the crypts and the wizard, nice texture on the cloak!
Wow thanks Wolf! It's the nicest compliments I ever got, makes me blush.
For the crystals I used dry brush with white paint and then I used inks of different colors and just trying to make...

I slowly started on this guy and also I started to be a patron...
Those guys are top notch!
Nicely done so far, is he called "atomic shroom" :D
That squig is really cool! Don't worry about the troll, experiance is what you achieved.
Thanks guys, very kind of you! I already ordered a new copy for the future but in the meantime I should get started on Seraphim the Hunter.
Everything looks nice but why the pictures so dark? The sorceress is my fav too :D
Nice start bro, a bit of details here and there and you are set.
Thanks equipage, it's all good, I will maybe pick her another time. I need a break that's all.
I knew this was coming, I just can't get comfortable with this mini, everything I try to do is difficult and my patience is running out. From the start I incontered problems, I should of never...
Thanks LL! I going to use that as a name for her, "Ice Vampire"
I slowly started on the face. This time I edited the picture a bit to remove over exposure.

Thanks bro, I am going to have to retouch the whole metal work after the skin is done :P an't wait for manual shots with camera too.

Keep up the good work!
Really nice job on these marines Toad!
Nice looking red fox.
@Arkaan, thanks! Yeah his stuff is super cool. BTW I added you on Instagram.
Thanks guys! happy you like him.
@Toad, they are really cool minis to have, just really delicate as they used soft metal (lead) for the casting.
@Fuentes, thanks and welcome to my thread :D
Crazy stuff! love em.
Those guys rocks!
Voted! I don't care so much about those new gobbos but you doing a excellent job on this guy! Keep it up.
