So, I have decided to seriously revive my hobby of painting after a long break. This thread will contain various projects i embark upon, updates will probably be scarce and irregular and progress will be agonizingly slow. I do think it will be worthwhile however! Like the occasional cartoon you...

Hey. It's been quite a while since I posted anything on these forums, so here goes! This is my latest project; a necron warrior. So far, I've painted the legs (not the vertebra or the pelvis). Shading has been done while aiming for a purplish tint. Any feedback is greatly appreciated...

So, a funny story! I am currently at university, attending a pretty long education. I had previously always lived alone in an apartment, until 1 month ago, when a young woman moved in. She rented the room next to mine. She was very nice, and we became close friends in a matter of weeks. Also...

Could Knarloc green be replaced by catachan green (tone-wise)? I\'m going to start an Ork army, and I\'m planning on using GW\'s skin colour scheme for the rank-and-file troops. Unfortunately I don\'t possess any knarloc green, so it would be great if I could substitute it with catachan green.

I\'m currently experimenting with NMM in different colours, and now I\'ve reached red. As we all know, red is painful enough to simply blend, and probably even more so when it comes to nmm, which is why I\'m turning to the painting community here on CMON for advice. My current idea involves a...

I\'m about to paint the cloak of my space marine commander, but I can\'t come up with a good pattern/freehand! Nothing too elaborate (he\'s meant for gaming), otherwise I\'m open to suggestions!

Something has happened to me as a painter. In \"the old days\", the days before coolminiornot.com, alcoholic beverages and university, My relation to painting was a very healthy one. When I bought myself a set of figures, I always painted them; every single one. Always. I never spared the...

Guess what airline company i chose for my trip to Rome? Sterling Airways! So the financial crisis has finally affected me too..

After a long absence, I have finally picked up the brush again. Here is what I have been occupied with recently: Deeply inspired by Jakob Nielsen\'s brilliant nurgle knights, I painted this. (Don\'t worry, it\'s far from finished) This is a grey knight, painted in gold nmm. It is...

I just checked out the new GW winged vampire model. I quickly realised it only had one wing, which struck me as pretty odd. I mean, why lose a potential shield arm just so you can have a wing? How does that help in combat? Without two wings there will be no flying either.. Am I missing...

I am very excited right now, as I just learned I have been accepted to med school! :drunk::drunk:

I\'ve been experimenting with different colour schemes for vampiric skin for a while now. I found this when i was browsing the gallery for inspiration. I really liked it so i sent the artist a pm, where i asked what colours he had been using for the vampire. He answered he had used fortress...

I thought i would share this with you. You get to play as the tau empire in the two demo missions. Dawn of War: Dark Crusade demo Is it just me, or do they sound like they\'re talking with a chinese/japanese accent? ???

Hi, since i\'m posting a lot of wip stuff all the time, i thought it would be good for me to start an own thread. This is the same terminator i posted in the WIP V thread some days ago. The legs are almost finished now. I\'m looking for an effect similar to Bobby Wong\'s emperor\'s champion...

Hi, this is a grey knight, done completely in gold nmm. I would like some feedback on the gold nmm and what i could improve. Thanks :drunk:

This is my first nurgle knight and i\'d like some feedback about the metallics. I\'m not a fan of green armour so i tried to create a nurgle appearance, using only inks, brown colours and metallics. By the way, how do i adjust the resolution of the image? I\'m not an experienced user of...

Hi, i\'m wondering how large dwarf slayer eyes really are in comparison to i.e high elf ones. I know they are rather beefy and they have enormous hands, therefore i thought that perhaps the eyes were just as over-sized. If somebody has a slayer model and perhaps an elf or a human, could you...

Hello, I need some advice on painting vampiric looking skin. I\'ve PM\'d some people here on the site, but i\'m not sure. The effect i\'m looking for is very similar to Northern Star\'s vampire character, displayed here. I don\'t want the blood effect though (even if it\'s really well done on...
