Cheers John. I've made a start on the storm boyz so looking forward to how they are going to turn out

 

[Teronus]

Nice Ork Epic :good:

 

[EpicMiniArt]

Well I'm going to finish this one off before I start cracking on with my other painting projects. Photos are only for a rough idea, they were taking with the classic phone camera (Y)

 

[Teronus]

Yeah, looks good, I see you are improving. I think Epic is trying to fool us passing for lower painter!!!

Hop on my thread from time to time you can learn a few things or 2 on any aspect of miniature painting. Like you can learn I am the Necron of miniature painting, after 10 000 years buried in dust here I rise again.

 

[EpicMiniArt]

Thanks Ter. I'm heading over now

 

[Teronus]

Good work on the Orc. I find with Orks that the teeth are a important focal point so really get them to stand out

 

[EpicMiniArt]

Cheers 10, I remember that for the future Orks. It's always the smaller details that count

Update on the Ork Nob folks

 

[Teronus]

Your metallic on the gun and axe is ace, you will just get better. What are the spots on the pants, camouflage?

 

[EpicMiniArt]

yeah I'd thought I'd give it a go, but it needs a bit more work but its only a WIP

 

[Teronus]

Orcs are cool to paint and you learn a lot.

 

[EpicMiniArt]

I agree Ter, Orks are awesome to paint and because you can do all sorts of things to them you can learn and practice tons of techs on them. I've got 5 storm boyz to paint after this Nob

 

[Teronus]

Do you paint full time, part time or just as a hobby like me?

 

[EpicMiniArt]

part time would properly more accurate. I have a day job which pays the bills and I paint to make a little pocket money and to fund more painting. If I could just fund everything from my day job then I can paint what ever I want. I paint a lot for some of the local gaming club but I don't get much time to game as I'm too busy painting and work, but I get immense satisfaction out of it and because I don't rely on it to pay the bills I can pick up commisions as and when but alas they only want table top std so it doesn't really propose a challenge.

I'd uhming and aring about developing it into a full-time business but I've lot a lot of work to do on my own profile, upping my painting game (which everyone is here is helping with greatly) and part of me doesn't want to lose the hobby enjoyment side of painting. Just taking it one day at a time. I have a wife and 3 children to fit in as well lol

 

[Teronus]

Oh man OK you win LOL 3 kids... Always been a passion to me since I am 14 y/o I just want to make the best possible painting, life is life so I was on and off few times, now I am in full throttle, I have unfinished business to attend... I feel like a undead 10 years is long in a coffin. Where where you in 1999?
