Another mini

Conversation of a Games Workshop Space Ork Wartrack - WestOrc Custom bike . Plz take a look at the front , which is all reworked to give it a more Chopper - style.- the idea came while seeing AmaricanChopper on TV , so i started with some drawings off the basic idea. I also wanted a hotrod-like flame on one of the sides and due to the fact there is not much space to carry some boyz to WARRRGGHHHH(thats a word for war orc-style here you'll see the new base also just to give this orkbike a firetheme for the base also without getting to much into detail( it was the biggest crap painting those lavastreams on the floor without having an idea how the rocks will sit on.i had an simple idea but then i redesigned the stone stuff again and again...

k, thx for comment so far. i know about some "mistakes"on it for sure. the hard truth is i tryed few things on this mini i read about in tuts to improve my level of painting. while the background is blue (i chosen it for contrast) , i yet realized , it doesn't fit best in minis mood- i thought about a lazy ork rocker with his bike watching the beauty of the sun going down late in the evening...(isn't it a orky behavior?) will do a pic with terragen-generated background for best athmo. who is interested in the reds, its airbrushed over white basecoat - yellow ,hot orange, bloodred, also the flame is a simple overlay of 2 colors- -i just masked the outer flame area and airbrushed a gradient form orange to yellow . i also added rust and citydirt in serveral layers but i havent been able yet get better pics of that.this pigment idea came from weathering 1/35 tanks so in my opinion it looks realistic when done right way. will try to improve pics on it and share with you! hope that helps with any questions:)

La idea no es mala, pero tienes que trabajar más el acabado. Las llamas si son geniales, aunque en mi opinión la peana es demasiado alta y no tiene mucho que ver. ------------------------------------------------- The Idea isn´t bad, I really like the flames, but you have to improve the rest of the mini. In my opinion the base is very tall an ther is no truly reason to put the chopper on it.
