Great to have you back :)

Stunning works. Really love the Orc and the turtle. The vampire WIP looks very promising so far. Really curious how it will continue. The NMM is really great and I love...

Know that feeling. Have a 15 year old death corps commissar that is in WIP because I was afraid back then to ruin things so I stopped working on it and wanted to "get better" before I continued ......

Yep that's what I thought too. Although it's a slippery slope since eyes are a key area in the face that usually instand look strange if proportions or anatomy are off.
Really strange that painting...

Wish I had your basing skills. Very realistic scene and the trees look really amazing.

Thanks :)
Yep, will probably try again on another mini at some point.

Continued to paint Laila. Grinded through the NMM gold parts the last two days and painted the eyes several times. Quite...

Looks really awesome. Thinking about to start painting on canvas as well. Although still a bit too intimitated of the huge white nothingness ^^

Looks really promising. Love the gun already.

Would tend towards A

Although to B: what do you want to add a little? Clothes or volume? ^^ xD

Thanks a lot :)
Learned quite a lot during that project but it was also kinda exhausting ^^

Finished two other minis last month and finally had some time to take pictures.

Lilith, the Double...

Thanks :)


Yeah kinda true ^^ xD
Will probably need another witcher inspired mini. Still very inspired by the universe and the great artworks around it. Love the dark fantasy setting. Warhammer...

Very nice clean style. Great work.

Thanks guys :)

Not a lot happened the last weeks. A bit uninspired atm but started a new mini this week. Not really sure where it's heading so I just doodle around and throw some paint at it and...

Nice job on he metallics. The scratches are worth the effort.

Skin and the blossom have been the main focus and took most of the painting time. The tendrils I rushed a bit but I'm glad I finished her :)


Also started another attempt on...

Congratulations :)

nice start so far.

Thanks a lot guys.

It can happen from time to time that you get a bad brush. But with "premium" brands like it's pretty rare. In over 15 years I only had one "bad" W&N so far and I could return it.



That might...

Yes, much better. Instandly looks more 3D and as if sculpted. Great unit.

Some more progress on FloraFey. Refining with acrylics and Gouache:

https://i.imgur.com/ZmjB5g3.jpg

Great work. Love the clean and tidy style. The bases look fantastic as well. Great details with all the plants and grass.

The doggos look very nice. Great unit.

looks really good. But also put a highlight on the lower edge to sell the effect even more.

New weekend, new project.

Thanks a lot. Glad you like her :)

Thanks a lot. Was really tempted to grab the oil colors on that one xD
But I wanted to get her finished and not wait several days for the oils to dry.

Deamonette is finished. Added some warmer highlights to the skin with very thin glazes of VMC - Sunny Skintone to make the highlights pop a tiny bit more (was a tip I got on another forum) and I...

You've come this far already. I'm sure you'll come up with a solution. Also had to laugh about the generous starbucks donation xD

Fantastic work. The small freehands are amazing. The bases look really great as well. More like little dioramas already. Would probably want to loose games on purpose against such an army, so that...

Yes, and the textures on the purple skin are a great detail. Also great job on putting all this work into editing the photos and listing all the colors used in a step!

Great job. The leather jackets looks really great. Very good translation from the reference. They look pretty small. Are they 20-something mm or even smaller? Respect painting that amount of detail...

Thanks a lot for the nice comments guys :)

And she's done. Fun learning piece and quite fast paint job compared to how long I usually need for a mini.

https://i.imgur.com/c7X1pp9.jpg

Welcome back and really great restart. The OSL looks really good so far. The overall scheme also very harmonic. Hope you can stay motivated :)

Nice idea with the wire. Excited how it will turn out painted :)

Thanks a lot :)

More paints for testing arrived today, can't wait to try them out tomorrow :)
But I slowly start to believe I should get some help with my "buy more paints addiction" xD

Yep Terminator 100%.
Captain would be my second choice but the terminator fits better into the composition in my opinion. The arm, leg and head follow the same diagonal direction as the chain. The...

They look really cute. Interested in what you'll use your digital sculpting skills for in the future :)

Yes the design looks really great. I admire your perseverance on that project. Keep on it :)

Final progress for today:

Oh and since nowadays it seems it's not self-evident anymore (at least on other platforms) ... Critics and feedback always welcome

Very nice transition and contrast. Love the vibrant colors but danger there of loosing focus.

Thanks a lot *blush*
But with oils it's actually not that hard. You can work the transitions for hours by either mixing colors directly on the mini(or canvas^^) or feather them out. With acrylics...

Great job and congrats for making it into the white dwarf :)

Really love the color choices and contrast is looking very good so far. The cast shadows look convincing and really help to sell the light situation on these large scale models and busts.

Outstanding work. The only thing I could ask for would be bigger pictures to save them as reference material ^^ xD

I don't really see the point of instagram (maybe I'm too old school xD) since the pictures are quite small and there are no real discussions going on there.

Bought a tube just for that one since I wanted to try it.
Sadly my holidays are over so I most likely will just paint on weekends....

Wow that project is really crazy but I love it :)

Also really like gatling gun design you found as an inspiration. It looks very SiFi but in a bulky way that fits quite well into the WH40K...

Quick update for the doggo. Some more refinement on shadows and highlights. Currently working on the arm with the chain and building the base. Hope I can get it done this weekend.

What happened?

For your first miniatures they look really good. I don't see any spots where you painted over the shapes and you also have some nice darklinings already and some basic highlights.
My personal advice...

I continued on my old 2015 Chaos General project and sank some hours into his doggo. I started blocking in the main color areas with oil paints 2 weeks ago and varnished it after drying for another...

I don't own such an airbrush but as far as I know and as far as I've seen them, they're more cummon for bigger surfaces. So I don't know how well they behave for detail work.

I'm subscribed to him too :)
Really great inspiration. Although I wasn't brave enough yet to try it myself xD

NMM works great. You've got a good feeling for the reflections :)

To push it further I would probably smoothen the transitions a bit with glazes.

Wow armor turns out great already. Keep on, excited to see the progress :)

NMM looks very good for first trys!



Not needed necessarily. Most important are contrast and positioning of highlights. When you got that right blends don't have to be super smooth.

Wow, great work. Really enjoy watching youtube paint vids. Always great when people take time to record, comment and explain while painting. Thanks a lot for all the work!

Hmm smaller needle/nozzle size doesn't automatically equals finer lines/spray pattern.

You can spray pretty fine line with your HP-CS (own it myself and it's my favorite gun).

For fine detail...

Ran myself into some trouble with the white collar. Choosing a cold white maybe wasn't very smart....

Very well done. They look great as a unit. You are becoming a lot tidier already. Keep it flowing.

Love the genestealers and the base. Truck looks great too. Great weathering so far.

Yap, agrre with andy and hairster. Would also probably tune down the highlights a bit with glazes and soften the blends a bit.

Do you paint single models just for the fun of painting? Or do you collect troops/armies that you want to use for gaming and that should look coherent ?
The second...

Very excited about your test. Just added destilled water to my old GW paints a couple weeks ago.

Wow the Truthsayer looks great. Love the clean and tidy style.

Exactly what I hoped to avoid lol xD
But well, if that is what is needed ... work work work -.-

Yap can only repeat what has been said. Love the vibrant blue.

As the good old "Tesla Troopers" in C&C used to say: " You sparked my interest! " xD
