First mini aimed at ebay / for sale - WIP - Dire Troll Mauler

[skraaal]

Ooooh, I'm going to be taking the first steps into the world of selling what I paint shortly! Scary stuff. The first mini I'll be doing for ebay / general sale is a Dire Troll Mauler from Privateer Press.

I started him last night, here's the work so far.

Blue! I love blue! :tongue:
The shading so far is very nice and gives the muscles good depth. Can't see anything to improve on yet, looks like its off to a good start.

Needs more definition in the face. The blue is off to a good start.

Whilst doing this guy, I also have a NMM piece I'm doing too! Here's a WIP picture so far.

Oh very cool Skraal! I love the Deceiver! I was hoping to get one. I got the Nightbringer but couldn't snag this guy. Very nice job with the NMM! So I really hate to say this - but you've got a large seam on the inside of his outstretched arm and a hole that needs to be filled near his armpit.

Sorry! But I figured I'd better tell ya.

Haha no worries, I noticed them when I started painting him how I missed them whilst prepping I don't know, took ages to scrape mold lines off. I'll fill them in before moving on with the model.

The NMM I'm doing is following Darren Latham's guide from WD. It's currently sitting at around stage 5-6 of around 12-14. Happy you like it, thanks for commenting!
