Oh, that's going to look great!

Dude, that skin!

Thanks!
Trying to give the flat part of the head a hammered metal look, the kind you get with one of them round headed hammers. Got started on the beard aswell. Going for graying, slayer orange......

Great stuff. Live the fabric of the tabard.

The struggle is real. Working on the axe.

Started to paint one of my old metal dwarfs. He'll be part of an AoS skirmish team. The skin is about done I reckon. Might add some red to the shadows and the face is a bit messy, especially the...

Thanks! Lots and lots of mold lines and in all the wrong places... Some minis are better than others though. I have Mansions of Madness 2nd and I wouldn't dream about painting those minis. The...

Purple sucked, started all over. Let me know what you think! I started with the transition to gray this time sorunda because that's where shit went haywire with P

Looking AAA+ as always:)

Looking s.i.c.k! That bronze is amazing

Throwing in this guy as well. It's what got mer going again:) Haven't finished the base yet, obviously^_^ Will be part of a tyranid KT.

Love it! Awesome Base. Can't wait to see the finished display:)

Painting a lieutenant, a large troll named Bol'goreth. Trying to step it up a notch. Got a pretty clear idea where I want to end up with the shading of the skin, i've yet to darken the darkest areas,...

Great game! Good stuff! I'll hopefully get around to paint my mansions figures. Busy with descent though and will be for quite some timeXD

Love the green armor!

Thanks! I think they'll look great on the board:) It's just the photogenecy that makes me cringeXD

Ok, these guys are not my proudest moment and they're in man aspects a modeling nightmareXD I'm just glad it's over.

Thanks! I think it'll look neat^_^

Hi guys! Been out of it for a couple of years and boy the stuff's that's beint put out there these days is just incredible. Anywhoo... Getting hooked on Descent: Journeys in the Dark got me back into...

Hiya, good to see you too:D
I moved and all my painting gear got stuffed in the back of the closet, very inaccessible. There they've been gathering dust, or rather avoiding gathering dust, since...

holy crap, great stuff! How's the sculpting going? I remember you had a go and sculpted an orc skull/bust that looked sweet.

Awesome:) Buut I must say that that blue background does >Nooot work for that mini. And you know it's bad when I react on color choices;D

Oooo, I didn't even know those faq's and errants existed, awesome stuff. Thanks mate:D

Does this apply for grenades against walkers aswell? In the description it says they never require higher than x to hit veichles. If you'd ask me, then yes it applies to walkers aswell. Walkers are...

Dude, I'm sorry but there's no way in hell anyone is going to let you have that room and do as you please with it. Once the time comes the missus will see the incredible light and view up there and...

Man, congratulations on a room like that!:D

Thanks for the pointes bpi:) I was actually thinking about trying to base coat mini white and blend from white to darker. Afterall that's what you do when painting with water colors, white = the...

Ah, but once I mount him the base the arm will be lvl and he'll be flying through the air superman style! Pate 1 - 0 Skel. Nah I see what you mean and I'll see about sorting it out:) No fear,...

Another update:) The green streak was there because when I was painting it I imagined that the "upside" of the edge of the armorplate would be exposed to the lightsource, but it's not. There are some...

Nice painting as always:) I'm guessing that you're far from finished on the skin since you can still see some resemblance of to the base color;D

Haha, paté brukar vara det populäraste uttalet. Dock så är pejt det korrekta! Det har sitt ursprung i en gammal diskussion där jag och en kompis fundera på vad Putte kunde heta på engelska. "Pate!"...

These kits are of, visually, top notch quality. It's something I'd buy without a flinch, if I played any fantasy themed games. So I'm going to go join the "sci-fi"-crew and wait patiently for you to...

Very nice conversions to say the least! I wash I could dish out conversions like that.

Fire fighter? Impossible, that would make him a cool dude. There's no such thing as a cool nerd!:P

I was so close to buying it a couple of days ago. I ended up with three parts of the horus heresy though:( Well not really sadface, I've just begun on the series and I like it. Back on topic. I think...

Ohh, so that's the stuff you were working on. The chaos renegades are pretty awesome models. Especially the ogre's. I'd never dare to chop one up though:)

Christ, that's insane!

Great stuff, love the background stories:D

Abcess, what the hell is that? Some kind of boil? Considering that it was suggested that you'd pop it with a pin. Anywho, nice mini:) Sorry I aint got no more to say than that, I leave feedback to...

I started all over on the armor. Didn't like the green I was getting, not one bit. Until I saw these pictures I was satisified with the blending, now not so much. It can be fixed though:) Overall I'm...

I resent that!;)

Looking good! I'd love to have that guy. I have to restarin myself a bit though, flooded in mini's as it is. And I'm at a place where I'm happy with the composition of my dg army.

Hoorraay, I wont have to start over?;D The left leg does have more higlighting. I felt so at loss I stopped in the middle of painting it. I'll add some purple to the shading, perhaps it'll match the...

I've begun painting on the armor aswell, and yeah... I'll let the pictures do the talking. I don't even know why I'm posting these I already know that the color has turned out horrible:P Perhaps...

Lol, yeah, unless you know it's there you sort of have to put the pictures next to each other. A little bit like "finn fem fel":D
I'll probably en up with pure white on the armior. But on the cloth...

Another very small update. It's a quite important one though, I want your feedback before I move on. Personally I like it, but I don't think that's much to go by. I've started to bring up the cloth...

Very clean and crisp paintjob, the kind of stuff I love and the way I like to paint myself:) I disagree with the others, he doesn't have to be more skaven. From these two minis it's clearly your...

Heroquest was my very first miniature game:) I just loved the boock cases, the torture bench and furniture in general. I remember me and my brothers playing it. Not sure if we understood the rules or...

I've got high expectations now:) The less time I spend on prepping a mini, the happier I am. I just want to paint it:P

Cool, nice idea:D The first row, collumn no. 4, that's Freddie Mercury. Right?:D

My gf think's I'm the biggest geek in town. I think she's about to snap now that I've picked up mmorpgs again. Took it one notch higher yet and started to hang on my mates vent. A couple of weeks...

Allies for the incursion game. I don't think I'll ever get around to painting them. And a couple of weeks ago I bought howling banshees and dire avengers for my eldar, whom I never play with...

I want this one!

Lol, I missed that boil comment on the first time around. haha, I'll try to make your proud BPI!

Thanks folks:)

Tee999, thanks man:) I'm getting more pleased with the dread as time passes, usually it's the other way around. Going to be fun to see what you've bought:D If it's the Plague...

Just a teeny weeny update. I started to highlight my marines but after the champ it felt too unispiring. Instead I started to paint on my lord. I started with the cloth and it feels like I made quite...

Love it! Looking great so far

voted and commented, booyah!

I'd probably just spend the time at home slacking.

I think bote types of tatoos work excellent. The brown ones doesn't pop as much though

that's so lol and awesome att the same time!

^^ First I'll finish these guys, then my lord and then I'm going to finish the conversionwork I've started on the land raider, and slap paint on it. THEN I'm going to start with the terminators. Do...

Man, that's one awesome blog! Not just IG-stuff but in general. Added it to favourites, omg

Naah, that's wrong. The story/tale/legend of Robin Hood has its origins in the movie "Men in Tights".

I've found some time to paint and I'm about half way done with my regular chaos marine squad. Actually the icon bearer is missing, going to paint him when I paint my fw marines.
So what's left is...

Yeah they're awesome. They remind me of something I've seen somewhere. I think it was on the cover of an music album, possibly korn.

Very interesting models you've put together there!

Lol, that's just... I'm baffled.

välkommen osv!:D

Perhaps these shoulderpads, with some tweaking, could be usable.

Excellent stuff mate. I'd like to see som red, green, blue and yellow in there though!;)

Typhus is looking very nice indeed. What kind of converting have you done on the feet of your marines? I notice that most of them have green feet.

Excellent stuff mate, it has lots of soul/character!

I'm in the process of painting mine

Obviously. I just mix some beer in the HB because I like the extra flavour! It would be a very interesting experiment to paint a mini while being drunk. Not to mention that I'd be able to give a...

Very nice paintjob!

Stuff I want to have finished by the end of 2010

haha, that's too funny!

Meet Harry the Cat!!

2119

Still no fan of the white knickers;P I think the metal looks great, especially the front.

Very nice! But seriously, that mustasche is horrible! Not horrible as in poorly made, horrible as in something a pornstar would wear, hehe. But hey, it's your mini:P

Hear ye, hear ye! Pate will paint-off against the far renown Aliengod3! It's David versus Goliath. Will Pate's rock strike true or will Aliengod3 make use of his enourmosness and smash Pate to a pile...

Lol, I was sure you'd be!

That looks properly disgusting!:D

I just love the Valkyre. The valkyre by itself is nice but the diorama just makes it outstanding! It reminds me of stuff I saw as kid browsing catalouges and building wwII airplanes was my favourite...

Holy crap! Awesome NMM, well everything about it is awesome really.

Apparntly a larger volcano, Katla, has a history of erupting in sync with the volcano that's erupting right now. The word on the street is that if it does so now, we wont be flying for some time....

Yeah, beer is The remedy. Or as Homer once said "Alcohol is the reason and solution to all our problems". Drinking the first beer as I speak:D I had second thougts though because I want to get the...

Thanks man:) I'm considering this as done now. Starting out with the terminators tonight, or tomorrow depending on if I'm drinking beer tonight:)

If you paint with your off-hand I'll consider it!:P

Well, i considered that aswell but I'll leave it as it is now:) Time to move on!

The following demands has been met!

*Higher quality presentation
*More unified coloring of boils
*Glossier base
*"Proper" eyes
*Not so blue maggots

You better god damn like it now!;)...

Awesome! GW should put that into production:D

Hehe, thanks phaty! Painting the pupil on the eyes as I speak! (Obviously not since painting and typing would be a fine feat indeed! But I was painting until I started typing and i will resume...

This thing turned out awesome! I'd name it Ohmega

I'm not making any promises skel. It's almost as if I do it without thinking, seems to be a deeply rooted part of my very being!:P

Thanks dfb. Unfortunately I've been bullied into making changes!;P

**edit**
I'm so very almost done with the changes. Getting too late now though so I wont wrap up until tomorrow. Proper pics to...

Thanks all. Yeah, now that some time has passed I totally agree that I need new pics, these are too harsh shadow wise. Wich I believe is part of why the green on the base seems less shiny, BPI. About...

I wanna be a mop boy:( Oh and I really dig that you paint these way old mini's. They deserve it!

@jmr: Thank you:)

It's finished and here's the proof! I think I might need to take some better pictures for the gallery though, what do you think? These are taken with the sun as the only light...

Holy crap, it's finished! Unfortunately I had time for two blurry shots and then the camera died on me, and I'm all out on batteries. God damnit... Ah well, pics tomorrow then.

Excellent stuff, from one junior member to another: welcome to the board.

**edit**

noticed that it says "senior member" above my avatar. That's an outright lie.

http://www.coolminiornot.com/240162 that's the forbidden colorcombo:P

Haha, don't worry! I'm right on the edge;D

Np skel, you know you couldn't cope without it;) On another note, I'm really almost done with the dread now:D I think I might actually really finish it today. Just got the metal on the legs left:D...

I think the armor needs a bit more work, it lacks dept. Try adding a wash or two! The legs look a bit too white, but maybe it's just the photo. Also some nice blending on the tusks would be in place....

That club sure looks like it could bash something to a gory pile and stay in one piece in order to produce more gory piles:D Brilliant work!

I can see that you're going to have an absolute hell getting good shots of this thing! I've no doubt you'll come out on top eventually though:D

Aaaaaaa! Being a pretty huge star wars fan this is too much! Can't compute! Very lovely stuff. The jetbike is just great, although I think Boba Fetts gun is too big and sniperish:)

Definetely bone!

To me the legs seem to short, they're about half the size of the entire length (not including the collar), especially the tights comes off as too short. Arms, chest and head are in proportion to each...

Ho ho ho, "Sand-arne", never heard that before;) There's even a local "myth", with emphasis on the " ", about it! It's said that it got its name from this bloke named Arne that used to sand the...

They certainly do! What's awesome is that a chaos fw dread, including arms and shipping, is only 4-5£ more expensive than the "stock" chaos dread. And that's not taking shipping into account for the...

Ooo, Phaty I'd take that back if I were you, they're painted TTS;D That's no excuse for poor photos though;) Very nice TTS indeed:D
Three sentences, three smileys. Not a new record, but close.

I'm not sure if it's dripping of him or not:P When it comes to minis intended to game with I'm not that big of a fan of "static" bases, I want them to be able to blend in anywhere, so it doesn't seem...

Although I'm flattered I'd say I'm no such thing:P

Yep, I think it'll look proper when the shoulderpads are in place:) And "pinch" anything you want^^, it's mostly already pinched in one way or...

Aint got much advice about NMM, except perhaps as a cautionary example:P My attempts hasn't ended very well. Love your old weird ass mini's:D

Perhaps the wrong place buut, if you don't mind,...

One for me too!

General facts about Sandarne, Sweden.

Looking good:) Going to be hell of impressive size! The head seems to be a bit out of proportion though, it's almost the same size as the torso. Maybe it's just me though:)

@Tee999: Thanks^^ Really appriciated!
@Scipunk: Thanks mate, seems like the eyes work for some, I might be keeping them like this then:)
@phaty: Thanks, i'll bloody well need all the well wishes...

Still not finished:/ There's actually quite a lot of work elft though. Both the arms, both feet and basically all of the metal... Yeah the gems still aren't finished and I yet have to rework the...

Everyone knows I never do my homework properly:P

Going to turn out awesome. For some reason I was expecting a more desert like color to the ground though.

Lol. I had that done to me about 6 months ago. It wasn't pleasant! It involved me, a doctor, about 1,5m of 2cm thick tube and a camera. It was more of a live-footage session though:P I believe that...

My gf doesn't reallyt understand it either. She thinks it about as geeky as it gets, but she doesn't give me a hard time about it. I guess that's because I rarely paint while she's at home. She's...

Anyone up for a challenge?:) I got dwarfs, csm (death guard), eldar, the pinup from kingdom-death (once it arrives) and the allies made for the incursion board game.

I try not to post unless I have something, in my opinion, usefull to say. Sometimes though, you just have to fall in line and say "bloody hell this is awesome!":)

The armor is simply superb!

Nope... 1st of this month I recieved a mail saying he'd take care of it, which I read as that it would be sent to me. Guess he never got around to sorting it:P Looks like I'll have to try out the...

I want to say something constructive, except that it looks nice. Unfortunately I can't get past the placement of that pin:P It looks like he's hung as a horse and perfectly capable of utilizing it as...

Hehe. I've got the feeling that he just responded to the wrong thread.

There's no point system in sweden. Not that I'm aware of! I drive like a midsummer breeze, so if there were a point system I...

True scale does have it's lure! I've got plans for one true scale sm, and one only. Pre-heresy death guard, just for the fancy. Far off in the future though:P It seems as if the dread is going to be...

Lol, I wasn't really sure if you meant my greens or were refering to something I missed. In the end I settled for that you were talking about my green base color. I was wrong, of course:P

Yes,...

Haha, yes, on the shoulder:P Don't know where I pulled shin from. Out of my arse probably. Yeah, the eye on those ropers are awesome. I think I'll keep it purple though, and add some more dept. I'm...

My french is... non-existant:( Oui, Moi!

Very nicely painted. The loin cloth though, also well painted, but wouldn't it be in favor of the overall appearance if you painted it in the same color as the cloth around his thigh?

I've varnished the eyes, and added white dots. Unfortunately I think the white dots are abit outshun, if you'd like:P. Adding a matte varnish will remove the shine effect from the gloss?

I need some help. I've finished the left shin guard. The eyes, do they work? The purpleness is a bit too subtle I think. But I'd like some second opinions:) I'd like opinions on the shinguard in...

I'm sorry, but what's the significance of having, or not having points? I assume having them is bad, but what's the result of having, say, 9 points? Does the fines get higher? Will you eventually...

Ah, at last!:D Congratulations! It's taken you forever but you're close now:D

There's probably a fair amount of truth in that:D Holy Crap that's a big claw alright!

Hmm, they're looking a bit sharp for bananas mate! Perhpas they'll looke more like bananas when painted;P A dremel seems like a handy tool! I almost bought one, unfortunately it stood between buying...

If you're painting skill is a par with your sculpting skills, I think you'll surpass me by quite a lot:P

Thanks! Fear not, the barbed wire is only based so far, hehe:) Just slapped some paint on it because I didn't want to post a pic with it completely unpainted;D

A damnit! I think you're right>,< At first I was planning to have it more to the left, off-center. But after I'd added leveldifferences, in form of plasticard, it was more convenient to place it in...

Arrf, I wish I could have a workspace with mini's and various debris scattered all over the place! This i what my desk looks like.

...

Thanks! Can't wait to have the entire army finished. Going to be a blast serving my brother his, unpainted, space wolf ass on a plate:D

Congratulations CMON! Time for another insignificant update...

How about thin leather stripes wrapped around it, and then rope wrapped around that? I don't think it's the amount of rope that's the issue. It doesn't look tight enough, to me it still doesn't seem...

What are you going to turn those banan shaped thingies into?

Simply amazing. Kinda annoying too, considering that I will never ever be able to produce anything that's even remotely close to the same league as that.

Yep, I'm thinking so too. There's a bit of glare in the pictures thought that sort of reduces the contrast, so I'm not 100% sure yet about taking the highlights further. I think I need to apply some...

I'ts amazing how you find time to paint when there are far more important matters that requires once attention. In opposite to when you have about 12hours of freetime everyday and you can't find a...

I bet you're right:) I think I had a mini like that ilustration:D On a side note: In my storage room I have the blood berets game. It's in flawless condition, played it like once. Think i was in 3rd...

Oo, exactly what I've been looking for!

Hmm I like it, I think I'll give it a go!

I was going to contribute, but then I realized I don't know a single funny story:(

Hehe, damnit, you're right! I got this disorder that prevents me from using the same color twice:P Alas, fear not! The gem will be more black than blue, the intentions is to have a slight blue tint,...

Thanks:) I like the direction the gem is heading aswell, it's obivously not finished:P

I've got some work done on the dread, even though I don't have any time to spare for painting atm. Which means that something else has been suffering:P
Anywho...

Everything on the dread has been...

You mean we have to wait til like, the night after before we can see it finished?:S

;P

It looked awesome before but I like it much more now that you've added levels! It's going to be kick ass, will we see it finished saaaay tomorrow night?;D

I've broken limps, punctured lounges etc but never really had a close call. Well, when I punctured my lounge it was an exrtremely dangerous situation, but I wasn't exactly a close call. If I hadn't...

Thanks^^ Begun working on the dread now. I'm really unsure about what to do with the base, any suggestions are welcome.

Just wanted to pop in and say that I've begun working on the...

I feel obliged to! I'm not sure what though... It's not like I'm going to bring out the knife and start repositioning him. I'm far too novice in the knife department for anything such! And if I just...

Thanks:) I'll do the extra mile on them once I've got everything else painted to the same standard^^ I've got a green now that I'll use to highlight the green rims, which will speed up things quite a...

Yeah, the jet packs are awesome:) I'm not sure about the grit either, atleast it's easily removed.



The helmets are Steam Knight helmets from Maxmini, jet packs also come from Maxmini.

Man, well done!

Prepare to be awestruck! By my awesome photo editing skills!

I realized I'm short on shoulderpads for my raptors and plastic csm, so I put the infantry on hold until the reinforcements arrive....

Hehehe, that's great! Looking sweet, I was expecting som level differences though. Wont having it all in the same level result in that you wont be able to get a proper view of some of the models?

I bought two greens from P3 today and I think they're exactly what I'm looking for, hallelujah!:D

Hehehe:)

I need som help! I'm in need of a color that's in the same... shade(?) as Catatchan Green, but in a lighter tone. I need it for highlighting of the rims. The other gw greens availible...

I think the gold is turning out really nice! I'm not sure that I'm a fan of the sword though:P

Yes, they're compensating for the shitty paint job they'll recieve;D I imagine that not all of their limbs function as they used to, which also could be a reason to compensate;D



I overlooked...

Theyäre a blast to paint:) I've added another layer of paint and a wash on those guys, not really worth posting a pic though. I've spent most of the evening glueing and all that stuff. Behold my...

My cat understands boundaries aswell, breaking them is just part of the fun. The formula is easy: the more upset I get, the more fun he has.;D

15 mm, the horror! I hope you'll enjoy painting them. I'd probably end up in the loony if I tried:)

Looking hot. That's a hell o' a lot o' barrels! I imagine that beast would go something like "pew pew".

Thank you:) I'm not sure these mini's are in anyones taste. They're more sort of disgusting in a strangely appealing manner:P

7 Plague Marines are now about 50% done. I'm thinking that they're good enough to play with now and am therefor considering to paint the entire army to this standard before finishing the other 50%.

I haven't got much to say except that it looks amazing and that I'm looking forward to see the rest of the walker!:D

The one shoulder-pad doesn't bother me. Something else is though! When I first viewed this thread I thougt it looked really great, but something gnawed at the back of my head, something that wasn't...

I know, I like to push it though!;D

Yes, the skulls are only based, so they definetely need more work:P And yes, it's a mold line. It was left there for your pleasure!;D

So I bought some new minis, aven though I barely have time to paint. This means that my Eldar are spending the winter inside the closet, accompanied by my unfinished dwarves.

I've began painting...

I think photobucket has a maximum height / width. I did the same for me when when I had a series of pctiures similar to yours. I uploaded it here at cmon instead.

I think you really need some better photos, right now they remind me of what the world looks like after half a day of drinking:P They're so out of focus it's impossible to say anything at all about...

@DannyBoy2k: I see, that would probably it:P I picked them at first because I thougt they'd be easy, hehe. But as I wrote in an above post, after some thougt, I realized what I had gotten myself...
