PuttyArt.com - Challenge Us!!!

[eternity]

Hi everyone,

Due to local interest we have started up a worldwide commission painting service, set to rival and change the way commission painting is currently undertaken!! We are in the process of filling our website with news and rumours relating to Games Workshop products, articles and tutorials and a basic pricing structure for you to take a look at, although we would prefer it if you contacted us directly regarding anything you may want to ask!!

CHALLENGE US!!!!

To show you what we can do we are offering a challenge! To test new colour schemes and to show you what we can do we would like you to suggest the colours for one part of a space marine, either the head or arm/shoulder pad, and we will paint it and get photos on here as soon as we can!

Any colours, freehand, battle damage etc! So get thinking and suggesting! If you like what you see we will also send you the part, all you have to do is pay postage!!

Kind Regards,
Eternity

Ah...now the \"P\" thread makes so much more sense!

 

[eternity]

Sorry about the \"P\" post!! Was a complete accident! On the positive side, it really gets some attention having a 1 letter title!

I didn\'t look at your site extensively but one thing that jumps out at me is that you really need better photography.

 

[eternity]

Hi,

Thanks for having a look! Also thank you for your input, the pictures in question are actually a few years old and we are aware that the standard is no where near good enough. I have actually hired a professional photographer to take up to date photos and will hopefully be able to upload them onto the website as soon as possible! x

well, ill kick off by saying id like to seea marine helemt painted to resemble a wild animal of some sorts, like WWII fighter pilots did to the noses of their planes

Just looked and most of the side links lead me to a comment form ... no tutorial or content. I also can not find the gallery?
Maybe it is just me ....or you are still fleshing out the site?

 

[eternity]

hestan101 - yes, sounds like a good challenge! I will get it done and post pictures as soon as I can, If you would like it posted when its finished let me know!

And in reference to the website, it is in the process of being filled with content, so yes some links down the side haven\'t had the articles added yet, but we are working hard to get everything done! Thanks for your input

I\'m looking forward to better pictures, your brushwork looks sharp!

Helmet idea: Make a golden NMM helmet. An updated blood angels helmet like back when Mike Mcvey painted them.

I\'m making a start on these today, I\'ve put the challenge on another forum as well, so can put photos up of the ones I\'ve been challenged to do on there if you want??

Any more ideas??

 

[eternity]

Hi guys... as a quick update, whilst i\'ve been busy painting the challenges we\'ve decided to write an article on painting battle damage / chipped armour.

Let us know what you think!

red shoulder pad, brown never ending triangle freehand with battle damage.


don\'t bother paying for pro pics mate, it\'s far better that you learn to take good pics now.

 

[eternity]

The cost is at a minimum for the photos and works out cheaper than buying a decent camera and set up

I\'ve started a painting log if you wanna check it out all comments appreciated!
