My first CMON mini!

Ive been painting off and on for about 5 years, starting with 40k\\warmachine and moving on to just general figure painting.

These days I don\'t really have any freinds that paint or wargame, and most of my freinds would probably think Im more than a little odd If they knew. So I figured this site would be a good place to talk about painting, and get feedback on my work so I can continue to improve.

On that note heres something I finished today, a 54mm plastic German Grenadier from Conte. I wanted to practice human faces and camo schemes, something I havent worked with much, so a German grenadier in a splinter camo smock was a good piece to mess with.

I like the finished product enough that I might just paint him up a couple squadmates and a base and work on a diorama.

Hmm... Those white specs on his pants are bits of modeling snow that just need to be brushed off, didnt notice em till I saw it all enlarged in the pictures.

Oh my photo set up is crude at best, so I need to work on that too.

Granddad!
welcome SB...

nice work on the camo,

as Jester said the articles are a trove of info, worth having a troll through now and then

I can see a mold line running down his right leg and continuing off the edge of the base, it\'s quite fine and more noticeable on his boot and the base

some of the shading could be a bit darker, that will help give a little more contrast and make areas more defined

before you put him in your gallery, crop the pics closer to the mini, you can go up to 600 pixels wide, so stack pics on top of each other not side by side, you\'ll get better scores and more chance of feedback


happy painting

Mick
