Thanks!!! Thanks all!!

@gorb, strangely it was one of the hardest tinny freehand i ever did, since it was such a big piece i was further away than on a tinny model, or like the head is separate i...

Thanks guys!

@eki @Tim, thanks guys i wasn't sure until the end if it would work like i anticipated but after read your comments i started to feel a bit more confident of my vision, i...

Thanks a lot guys!!

Getting really close to assemble wings and wrapping this one up, getting really impatient....

82043

If you permit my 2 cents on freehand, Freehand is not for the faint of heart, it takes a lot and a lot of practice because there are so many aspects involved in it, what i personally find the hardest...

Tim i meant that Rackham is freaking small and looking at your work it is really impressive the details you put in such a small figure. I am a fan of Rackham!:claply:

I love those eyes!! Great job Lee!

Ah, I've seen this guy before, from Scale Bro, i believe this is your base for NMM gold?

Disgusting!!! :sick: in a good way of course!!!

Thanks bro!!!

Better picture update, gonna work those metals next before the final stretch.

82038

Nicely done Toad!!

Yes man!! Thanks!

Quick update,

82012

Looks great! I admire your patience with all of that molding business!!
Oh and don't miss that special on Doritos!! :silly:

Hey thanks guys!!

@tim, yeah she is a giant!


A little update on Dhalya, i did not have much time to paint lately but today i had a couple of hours at last, here is my result.

82005

Hey bro! You made Volomir's list this week!! Congrats!!

Considering this is rackham, pretty impressive. Love the colors too!

A nice play of light!

Thanks eki!!

Just to give an idea


81894

You should switch name to RustAsMedium!!

I really like the bust!! The eyes are spectacular and i like what you did with the cloth!!

N ice queen! :clown:

This mini brings me back!! I was suppose to paint her on a frost dragon for GD 2001 but i went on a 10 years hiatus instead.

Yeah its a change from your "nasty stuff"...

Those 2 pieces are wonderful! Don't worry i don't even work and i cannot even find time to paint so much. Glad you found a solution for thinkerbell and i am exited for you and Camelot!

Looking...

Thanks a lot guys!!

I am also really happy with the result!

Update, pretty much done here.


81884

OMG i was writing a huge reply when suddenly i lost everything... to make it quick i was just saying that i am happy you decided to come back to forums and that 2 busts looks fantastic mate!
Now i...

Thanks Tiki!

Update on the wings,

81857

Thanks guys!! Really kind!!

Even stippling didn't work!! After one wing my stippling brush was acting up and i could not keep the same pattern and other problems... so i don't know maybe after 4...

Lol, i think i found serenity at the end of my madness!

Hell with the dots, this is better!

81842

Fantastic result on Conan!

Thanks equi! I don't think the dots tool carry much paint! My brush carry a big load of paint, my autonomy is remarkable, i do a section with about 2-3 loads only! I think a fond my tool now, a...

Thanks all for support and tricks!

@MaX, thanks, the ab spatter technique is nice! But i wanted some regular dots, i can use it in other projects though.


This is with a bigger brush, this...

Looking fantastic! Great work!

Wow thanks Max! Thanks for the long post.. I will look into this for sure! Maybe with all these techniques in mind i will come up with something fast and nice. The problem with AB is the paint is...

Thanks tim! Yeah making a special tool is the way to go!

I like what you done on the base! The eggs are great idea!

This is really cool, i wish u could do that!

Thanks equipage! The pen will be even worst! The strain on my hands wilk be the same or even worst! No to mention my hand is mold to my brushes, not a pen. I need to speed the process to be able to...

I think the feathers looks ok now, for me anyway. Just had an idea, maybe if you look at GreenstuffWorld stuff, they have an extensive range of sculpting tools and rolls, maybe there is something for...

Thanks Chris!! Well those dots did get to me... i miss evaluated the level of difficulty for such a large surface, 4 wings 8 sides and i am not even done with one side!! Also it's really difficult...

First stage for the gold.


81733

Well done Rhett! Skin tones and eyes are superb!

That beast is really scary! Well done! :freaked-out:

This guy is nuts! :brushlick:

More spawns! Would be nice to see a family photo some day :fingers-crossed:

Nice start, i like the volcanic bg!

Thanks guys! Really appreciated.



Thanks! This model was a limited edition from Kimera.

Thanks for the praise guys!

Sorry for not being around as much and my lack of participation in your threads, i will try to make it up soon!

I sure like to suffer for imposing myself almost...

Update;

Started the wings, i want this iridescent shimmering effect.

This is going to take long...


81681

Thanks guys!

I have started Dhalya the fairy, really fragile model, there was many broken pieces that i either fixed or sculpted myself because i could not find them. You don't see it because...

Looks nice Alex!!

Hey guys! I hope you had a good year even with all of what happened with the global pandemic and shit, i for my part had a really shitty year on the personal side (without going into details). My...

Kick ass skin tones!

Nice production, it's fun to watch you go!

Nice Toad!

You spawn them faster than the great unclean himself!

Very nice looking base!

Insane! You rock!!

Thanks guys!

I Know!! I can use a back drop and modify the base a bit and touch ups!! It might be very cool!

This is so good!! You really talented! Simple but so well executed and clean!

Some one is on a roll... i am impressed at the ease you seems to devour projects, i am jealous! You inspire me to do something with my necron, putting a backdrop!!

Thanks guys for your nice words! The canning is almost done so it is a good news but on the other hand i completely lost interest in my necron, i have absolutely no will to continue, i tried today...

I love those rich colors.

Really nice! I particularly like the goblin's sword.

I like that boar,nice start with the fur and lots of armor on him he looks like a mean machine!

Very nice! I like the metals really much and the smoothness in the skins!!

Thanks a lot guys!

Unfortunately for the Necron, i didn't had much time the past week to continue on him, i was very busy cooking and canning food with my pressure canner/cooker.

In these...

Crazy good!!

Thanks guy! Here some more!

And dexter



The base is the same still, if i do modification it will be when the Overlord is mounted on.


Update,

If he's about same height as a human than it's 90mm / 1:20 scale.

Wow production like a well oiled machine! I like these guys.

On another matter i left a few PM's for you when you have a chance to look.

Break the trunk at the base, slice how much you need and re-glue the trunk and hide the operation with some grass it won't show at all!

Lovely piece and such a great idea!

These goblins are really nice! Love them! "Cest top mon pot!" :claply:

Yeah that bike is one real success!!

Thanks guys! I am happy you like him!!

Very long and tedious work, get bored some times, taking days breaks... I should continued soon, i did a bit in the back but most of it still uncovered. I...

Nice work on the fairy! Oh my, this is a big cork!

I have a set of Candy Ink paints from GSW i have never used and probably will never use, if you want them they are yours, just send me a P.M.

As for the fluorescent paints i have been using them...

This is so good!

Thanks Chris, yes the big flash from the crystal will be more evident once mounted on the base... Hopefully!

Just some teasers!

81065


81066

Thanks all!!! Really kind!

Update, since it's really long and monotonous, to not succumb into boreness with the re-highlights of the metals i do just a bit everyday.
Also started to play with the...

Thanks guys! Really appreciate your support!

Nothing much since last time, just a bit more fine detailing. As you could imagine these parts that i paint in white will be glowing effects once...

I really like the new additions, this is coming together nice!

Thanks! I don't think it will be necessary :embarrassed:


Quick update,

80955

80956

80957

Nice work on the base! Can't wait to see more!

Thanks guys!!!

I will look into it, if there's programs that can simplify the work ten i will give it a try.

Voted and commented on El Papa!

Fascinating work with the toad!

Thanks equipage! I bough exclusively those crystals for Necron bases, i bashed them, broke them, make them in little bits, powder ect Just to use for bases. I used to cut and polish opals few years...

Update on the dude,

So it's neither my brushing nor my stippling technique but air brushed for the metals, then shading with ink. I am still debating for the next phase what i am going to do, air...

Lots of dynamic in this project! Never seen anything like this before, you have a lot of imagination! I haven't read all of your explanations from before posts but do you plan on making a big exhaust...

Thanks Chris! In real it' even more striking and beautiful, i just can't get a shot that shows the colors like in real yet. This base is definitely made to be judged in real.

Thanks Toad!




Thanks equipage! I don't know if you ever worked with glass, opals and gemstones in general but let me tell you that it's not easy at all to drill those materials. The idea came...

Ugly and disgusting!! Err in a good way i mean! :tongue:

Thanks Guawol! I plan to do my TMM but not sure yet if it will be brushed like my necrons of 2015 or stippling style like i did on my last piece, we will get to that when i arrives there.

In the...

Thanks gorb! I have a few ideas floating in my mind right now for thos crystals, one involving polishing the tip of the big crystal with diamond paste i used for polishing opal, the rest of the...

I would probably never finish that piece, respect!

Damn, you are a machine.. Following this one closely!

Thanks equipage! I usually have head eachs with skins but this time was a charm!



Thanks Graishak! Unfortunately i don't have a gallery here I find it to much to make those super long collage...

Cool trio!

Thanks Dexter!


Nothing much since Aradia,

This dude is on the table

80894

Coming along greatly! Love the idea of the glass bell!

Great start on the face! QUEEN OF THE NORTH!

The green oni looks great! They look swell together. I am happy if i could of inspired you somehow. Your next project looks interesting!

Thanks Guawol!







Here she is, finished and on putty and paint. You can vote here https://www.puttyandpaint.com/projects/28035

Incredible work! I left you a big bunch of gold medals on your gallery!

Preview of Aradia

I still need to do a few adjustments on the model and in photography but essentially here she is:


80826

80827

Many thanks guy!

Quick teaser, i will be back later with camera shots!

80825

Great piece! I hope you have a nice spot for her in your cabinet!

Touch up on the metals.

80777

I understand, she is like in a terminator armor, lile a cross between a dreadnought and regular armor.

I will go check it out on P&P!

Thanks mucho guys!

I am almost ready to start tidy up the face, i need to touch up the metals first.

Wow some sculpting skills here! I really like what you have done armor and head alike, my only criticism is that for me i find the head to be a little bit to small for that armor. Overall a fantastic...

Uodate,

Camera shot for a change, still tidy up the skin, i should hit the face soon.

80723

Really nice! I love how you did the base!

Thanks all!!

@Flaming tiki, i can imagine we are not alone losing our job this crazy year... I can't wish more than to be able to attend a convention like GDor something, my last big one was more...

Pffftt those marines are spectacular!!! Unique style and just fucked up, that is what a marine should look like!!

Update:

Still working on the hair

80707

Thanks Chris! I appreciate your support!! Yeah unfortunately the industry that i work in got hit really hard with the global pandemic.
Miniature painting wise i was starting to really get down at...

I don't know if you are still looking for chrome references but this guy is worth checking on Instagram:

@flameonminiatures

He makes a mean chrome!

You will be fine, it looks like it's part of the feathers, gently scraped and it is going to blend perfectly.

Thanks all for your nice words!! Y'all very kind!!


@equipage, i am surprising myself with the skin so far, usually i would be scared of doing the skin and leave it for the end after having...

Fantastic work ten!

You guys are on instagram? What are your user names?

Thanks guys!

@bullfrog, GSW fluorescent paints are really glowing under UV lights the only problem is trying to photograph a model with fluo paints in them. I had painted the Craven King with fluo...

Really love the effect of your back drop, blends in with the base so smoothly!

Looking forward to see your take on the fairy and bird.

Update;

Tidy up the details slowly, working on the hair at the moment.


80652

I like what a see so far. The beard is cool and the skin is great.

Thanks Graishak! I can thank Greenstuffworld fluo paints for that!

The green one will be a nice addition to the group!

Update:

Starting to tidy up the skin and the rest of the details.

80635

Moving on to the other shoulder pad.

Just a tease picture:

80602



Slow process but worth the efforts i think.

This is fucked up :smile-big:

Whoas awesome job on the marines!

I was here and read your post, indeed it's hard to get motivated some times but posting here and have ppl respond to our thread can gives you wings! I just came back as well to the forum after a...

Thanks Graishak! But to clarify, it's more of a return to the forums than return to the desk. Beem away from the brushes only a few months.

Update on Aradia, started the metals! Fun time!

80590

Nice one Toad! I'll give you some love next time i log on to P&P :glasses-cool:

Thanks Bull, thanks a lot for the praise! Yes indeed breaks gives time to clean some junk out!

Here a quick update:

Thank you ten! You are always a gentleman!


Small update:

80572

That robot rocket girl is really nice!!

That Necron really caught my attention!! So unique!

So i decided to pick up the brushes again today and to come back to the forums.

I am starting this project with no expectations what so ever, no pressure to perform. Just trying to enjoy the...

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


I got fed up today and I really needed closure on the shield, I start...

Thanks guys!

Thanks equipage!

More for your eyes

766068

Thanks dexter!

Speaking of which, I got fed up with metals so I started the freehand on the shield. I will go back to metals when I am fed up with freehand :dazed:

Congrats bro! Such a crazy display!

Your barbarians have reach a new level, how can you do such a clean and dirty look at the same time, insane. Bip bip bang bang LEVEL UP ++++

Thanks so much for the praise guys! Mucho appreciated.

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!

I got some new pictures of Scorpio;

76071

76072

The contrast on the Barbarians skin is really nice! EPIC WORK! Am i dreaming or a saw a smurf in between pictures :snicker:

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.

Update on the metals,

Thanks guys but I was not happy with the results so I redid some stuff.

@BAM, lol you my man!

75935

Thanks a lot all!

Update on the face,

75923

You got a strong green going on there, keep it up!

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.

75857

75858

Wow that dude with the axe in the air is really nice, coming great bro!

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.
