Yes the well endowed god has had us both throw ideas around(big thanks diggs as I wouldn't have went the full length of Odins tripod!!! Thanks for the idea. It worked out wonderfully . That was one of the best tips I've ever gotten as a matter of truth. Can't be more thankful bud.
As someone who tries to two brush blend (Meg is a good friend and I continue to practice to one day make it look as easy as she does) I'm totally wowed at your first attempts especially on the pecs of that mierce mini and the flesh to tentacle color on your nurgle guy really stand out. Keep on rockin it like you are!
Wow thanks so much sherdy I have tried and tried it's not really my first attempts but more or less her way of two brush blending .I wasn't this good on my first few tries believe me m8. But meg maples is a wonderful person who not only knows how to implement the techniques she administers .she also knows how to teach and convey those techniques to students. I M amazed at how fast and how precise she actually is ..almost surgical with her Raphael sizes 2 and 3. I have much more to learn and your dear friend meg is why Ide want to learn it from . God bless her and a congrats meg if your reading this on your marriage to agent venom another great artists..
Being I've had great success with my beautiful bloated friend spur rotgut I've decided to purchase" the putrid blight kings" you see I'm a huge fan of nurgle and all creepy things that go bump in the night! So here is my work in progress keep in mind even fastened to their scenic bases much more attention will be addressed when I complete the 5 of them then ill have 200% attn towards the base work.:
If anybody is wondering how I get those very shiny silver edging and the shiniest parts do shiny... It's simple out of all the silvers in the many paint ranges "valleo game color pure silver" is the Creme of the crop and the shiniest and most brilliant finishe for silver work/ weathered metal scratches chips etc. get your hands on a few bottles. Worth it.let me also add the putrid blight kings box set is fantastic and if your wondering how they are in the game board well lets just say I was up against a 950 pt "blood knights unit" my blights were 320 pts and at the end if a few turns there were (out of 8 blood knights) 2 remained and out of 5 blight kings all 5were remaining and not a wound on more than 2 of them. They are unreasonably tough as an anvil unit and with 3wnds a piece they have much staying power. Very resiliant and deadly unit.
Newest update before I pack it in I've been at this since Saturday starting the painting actually at 110 pm in that sat afternoon and well sat and sun stopped at 11:00 at night tonight started at 11:00 am and just stopping now at 8:23.. So 8 hrs plus 13 hrs sun and today 9.5 hrs today is a grand total of 30.5 hrs and the bulk of 4 blight kings are done and much much more work to do. Enjoy until tomorrow folks.
Thanks skel and digga... yeah I'm always painting my back is killing me do to how I sit hunched over and I'm seeing stars ..all I do is paint ,paint paint and paint somemore ..thanks digga and skel.you guys are golden.
This is a group shot I'm almost done with the models themselves then it's a trip to Avenel hobbies to get etched brass gates and fences and all sorts of dead plantation/ vegetation .
