No, it is not wrong.

Painting IS holiday to me.

 

[AndyG]

Bit more done horns eyepatch a bit more on the skin etc.

I'm starting with the plinth for the candied skull. African black wood base cut and ready to be polished and varnished. More after Canada Day lunch cruise with the family

Holy Cow Andy ! hehe

... will take a while until I can start. Models ordered 2 months ago haven't arrived yet.
The strike at the post that's ongoing for the 6th week now (with no end in sight) doesn't help either.

 

[moetle]

That's a bummer. I still haven't picked anything to paint yet either. Hoping to come up with something soon.

Step one: cut away the rubber Bones base and make my own.

 

[AndyG]

Nice base there just the right size and the design suits it. Will be watching that one!

i like the Minotaur bust looks like a beauty to paint.

I have done a bit more but as its chainmail which is notoriously difficult to nmm I have gone.....ugh ...Tmm!

 

[marjedi]

Wauv!!

There should be a seperate competition just for Andy and tenball... Those are some stunning minis.

 

[crystella333]

Well my Goddess is scaring me because she is so delicate so I'm going with a good old dragon (Narthrax) be a break from all the mad cows on this thread

[marjedi]

Loool. My "mini" is not at fault!!

He is not afflicted with all the worlds diseases. He is just misunderstood!

*disclaimer
I never knew there was that many different Minotaur's out there.

 

[marjedi]

This chap

 

[Zab]

Display plinth finished. Onto priming and basecoat of skull...

 

[oistene]

Ugly is getting ready... maybe half done with base coating.

 

[ten ball]

Marjedi- you going to get that finished in a month!?

Nearly finished the skin, really getting to grips with the scale 75 paints now. Not much good for base coating but superb for layers & blending imo :good:

 

[MAXXxxx]

Marjedi- you going to get that finished in a month!?

look who's talking, not even 2 days in and already a pretty good progress (dare I say almost finished ).

I really would't mind getting a 10ball original painted god-or-monster-mini as a gift when it's finished

 

[marjedi]

Yeah. It looks like a worse job then it is. Alot is to be done with airbrush, since i can't brush blend well enough.

I am setting up now for the first painting stint. And by setting up i mean stripping half naked because of this damned heat.
