And natural light from a huge window in the studio directly to my left. It helps me use an even more sincere lightspurce . David Powell always said-first iffhes said and done many things with always myself and others excelling in the art of miniature painting, and life in general. He said”paint and look at your models throughout the painting process with diff lighting. Eg I’ll paint by my ottlight and then after an hour I’ll shut it off,lower the intensity of the bulb , open a window , take a view your models in pictures (Janet has saved my model many a time do to me catching mistakes that her photos have caught. So today is a giew from the daylightZView attachment 73348View attachment 73349View attachment 73350View attachment 73350

These guys must have been on the set for the last "Mad Max" movie :)
Excellent work. Looking forward to see, how you're going to round it up with the base design.

A suggestion - have a head (not just a skull) on the base and attach some fine fiber to the tire and downtube of the bike to make it look like it ran over someone's head and hair is stuck to the bike. And to really sell it add a little "dirt" to the riders at least legs as they are going to get some of that spray kicking up on them from the tires - kind of like this:

They are looking amazing though. So much better than the original GW paint up of them

Flo tjsts actually an amazing idea I will look up some things and see if I can pull it off. Remember BaM isn’t the greatest artist like some of these guys . I wish I could see thru halls the ideas my copsibters suggested. However I like that slot and will see if I can break the chicken barrier and pull it off.
awesome idea!!!
on the dirt end it’s going have it caked up on the underside as well as splatter effects to the peer legs.This I’ll do strangely in the order after i fasten y hem to the Lil dio bases. I notice the picture has a bit of dry and wet mud.me though I’m goin strictly dried and caked up . So theylll def be kick up and backsolash however I am going with the dried look. It’s some thing I fell in love with at MFCA. Only thing now is to have janet find the pic as I was fully stored on my phone with too manypicts(imagine that me too many) I cleared my phone:-/ .
the head idea now that’s something I’m def going to give it my best.:)

These are just awesome. I like that hook weapon the one guy has. That is a unique look I haven’t seen on similar sculpts.

Get down to some headlights hopefully finish off the neatened up steel and a tad corroded shoulder lights ( my former mines are along the lines of grabbing whatever they can which are old non functional former mining tools. I def do t see these guys as the showering type. He’ll they might have mutated all their sweat glands into alien secretion pheromone. Who knows.

Hahaha ( low ominous laugh)
only the shadow knows.

Stricknine this is Cyanide over...
Always stunning to watch your progress. At first I tend to think "What a hell of a mess" but then watchning it develop it turns out great. I'm way too scary to go fully weathered, always afraid to screw everything up and I'm way to impatient to fix it over and over again xD

The guys look great! Love how the faces pop out. Not necessarily just by contrast/light but also by weathering (the only part that's somehow "clean ish") xD

@Cyanide(Matey) hey bud gr8 catch on the headband faces. Everyone knows when setting out to gain contrast on partsof the model I always preach the layers of contrast and how I try to achieve 5 layers that will add to getting the most contrast in my models and all things 28 mm. I try to include using all layers in my projects when I paint these guys up. So one way is haveing texture versus non texture . Besides going through the light/ dark contrast if putting lightest colors in the heads and faces as iits the focal point but I’ve cosen smoother work on the flesh against the te tires everywhere around the other parts. I’ve also carried this over to the pants- the pants have little texture against the frame of the bike which has a lot. So you can clearly see and discern the pants not getting lost which would have happened if i heavily te tired the pants !!!!

These look fantastic BaM, the layering is awesome. There is so much going on, yet the overall look holds together really well.
Can't wait for Janet's photos!
