There was one question actually..Your models appear to have a gloss finish.. ?? what do you use for sealing...?

 

[fat lad]

Thanks for that razza.

One last thing though, how did you paint the gems as they aren\'t mentioned in the tutorial.

Finally time to try that Terracotta paint that I STILL haven\'t used once... I suck.

Amazing mini and NMM...

 

[Routaporsas]

Reading the whole thread can help clear that up for you!

WICKED!!

 

[Wombat85]

What color did you use for the tattoo and what sort of constance etc do you use when painting it. I\'m guessing its thin to get that transparency but id love to hear it from you

Hi, thanks again to those who have left a comment

@fatlad-
i painted the gems like this-
Red ones-
*scab & regal mix
*scab
*scab & blood red mix
*blood red
*blazing orange
*blazing & white mix
*white

green ones-
*scaly & regal mix
*scaly green
*scaly & spacewolves grey mix
*spacewolves grey
*white.

@wombat85-
the tattoo on his head is sculpted onto the fig, in his background it is described as a glowing rune. so i used regal & ice blue and then with a little white very thin over the area untill i was happy.

cheers all! Daz

I\'m going to give these colours a go on a mini thats been lying around for way too long. Thanks for sharing Daz

 

[Cleezy]

Awesome mini again, i love to see the models you paint, the nmm are perfect, i can say u r a true inspiration to all painters

 

[Infidel Castro]

Absolutely gem-like and perfect. Fooking ell.

 

[squidders]

Congratulations Daz, I had a poke around and your mini broke the record for an auction of a single 28mm mini on foot... I think only one single mini got more and that was a demon prince!

Outstanding result mate and not surprising for a mini painted to this level!

 

[Wootton]

very nice model,beautifully painted

congratrulations on the auction, i was watching it but i resisted bidding, good price, and a nice bit of money for christmas

The paiting on that model is sublime mate. Quite possibly one of the nicest painted elf models I have ever seen.

The thing that finishes it for me though, is that base. The base is so well done and just makes me want to go out and rip all my models off of their old bases and start a fresh.

I shall definately be taking your tutorial on the NMM and giving it a go as I would love to do NMM that come even 50% of the way tha yours do.

Top quality mate.

*EDIT* just saw how much it sold for... Well deserved mate!
