In my head while I ran silicone around the vanity and nailed on skirting. I might take the purple option as you guys have taken red and blue.

Sigh - I broke mine. Waiting for the replacement - should be here today. I have officially decided to never buy painted Finecast again, no matter how good the deal. Not that I could compete with you guys, those are awesome, but I'm still going to give it my best go!

Great work both , Andy all good, just a tiny detail that imo a bit more osl closer to the light source .
Mike very nice, TMM is hard to paint & even harder to photo!

Excellent work folks! Seems Andy is already finished... That was fast with the base and everything... Come on slow down a bit, for our pleasure (And I will stop here ;)

Excellent start for DR and Lee!

It seems that it has less coverage than the previous "paint along the same mini". Maybe a new thread should have been done to attract more people.
I will try to participate to the next one...

If you can paint, you can do NMM.
All it is, is careful placement of highlights and thin glazing.
You picked up adding complementary colours to Ork skin, what's so different about changing from metallic paint to coloured paint?

If an old fart like me can pick it up in his fifties, then there is nothing to stop you.
 
Yeah BaM. Trust me, you could do it, and do it quite well if you tried. The hard part is investing the time in trying something new that you are bound to not be as good at in the beginning. It's like why practice three pointers if you're so good at the slam dunk. Well, it will make you a more versatile painter. I'm going to pick up a historical type figure soon and do it all TMM. That's my opinion of when to use each-I think cartoony type fantasy figured look good with NMM, and realistic type historical should take TMM. But a rare few can make it look appropriate no matter what they are painting (like you with TMM on fantasy figs).

Wahoo! Got my mini today :)

Sad Panda!! :-( It's not going to have comets on it. The only flaw is that one of the corners of his robe and about 2/3 of the comet are gone - not there at all. I can (barely) sculpt the corner back on, but there's no way I can do the comet, so I'm going to just scrape them both off. Maybe steal a bit of Dragonsreach's idea and do hammers in the corners.

And it'll take too long to send it back, so I'm not going to worry about that. It'll still be fun!

Feel free to steal away, but don't knock the idea that the corner has been ripped off in battle.
Guy doesn't need to look like he's in a fashion parade.

Oh and the freehand's not finished yet....<Cheesy Grin>

Alright guys I'm Gonna try it! :/ here I go try not to laugh!!! But thanks for the confidence boost guys cause in reality this nmm scares the living shites out of me. And DR thought you were 42... Good genes mate !! ;) and thanks a bunch guys. For believing in me when I failed to do so quite miserably . I figure if it comes out bad I can - test the structural integrity of the mini by giving it free flying lessons. Lol anybody ever btw get so mad at a model that you just had to .. I mean absolutely had to throw it across the room " Pedro Martinez/ Andy petite style . ( baseball for my friends over in the England) lol jk. Thanks men.
