its pretty much cut&paste from etched gateways, this one is very useful for example http://www.eurohobby.se/staket-med-grind-etsad-massing-p-3751-c-427.aspx

i´ve been looking for something like that for ages! by the way, did i see you and your kid up in masthugget today, strolling around?

 

[SkelettetS]

yeah thats probably us. junior is starting to walk really good now

 

[Kretcher]

Hi Skel,

Congratz on your win on best in show in Wamp contest.

Have too admit thou that I didn´t vote for you or the farseer that placed second I voted for that cute bunny, I liked the details on the wall and the humoristic touch in that diorama.

/Kretcher

 

[ischa]

i approve of that! whoever i saw had his kid in a strolley however. up around fjällgatan.

ooh, you won at wamp? that's awesome

 

[SkelettetS]

thanks yeah me won wamp, great start of year of our miniature 2012. kretcher you traitor lol. admit, cute bunny was pretty cool so i dont blame you

yeah still think it was us ischa. still a lot of driving around...

 

[SkelettetS]

some more skellie wips; command group finished, time to rank up the regulars. just the swordarm left on this one.

...to be continued...

should start with the vampire model when this guy is done, not terrible exciting to paint skellies even if i think its pretty minis.

 

[Kretcher]

As usual nice figures, I like the shield and freehand very much and the face of the skelleton.

 

[10 ball]

Coooooool freehand skel

 

[ischa]

guess i should've said hella to yall, but wasnt sure, and asking some random gothy looking person if he´s the skeleton could turn out awkward these are looking awesome! love the combination of your style with undead!

 

[MightyChad]

Looking good Skells, and congrats on the WAMP win. If I had to pick out one problem, it would be that there is no brow ridge defined on the shield freehand. SO too me it looks a bit wonky. But that is a minor thing. Great job!

 

[SkelettetS]

hahaa, get your point ischa. =D

chad, haha get it. when i started the freehand it wasent supposed to be a skull but a glowing ghosthead sort of, thats why no brow ridge. perhaps i can fix it up for ya!

anyway, rataxes submitted now; vote me plz http://www.coolminiornot.com/301124 thanks =)

 

[Alexandra]

great looking mini! love the shield, even without the brow ridge

 

[SkelettetS]

okay skellie no4 is done, more or less... (again, poor light in these images, blaha!)

...just done a setup to harvest icicles to pimp the base with a little

so, im up for a vampire next! actually my first finecast miniature so far. guess i was lucky, not any bubbles or too much flash. i made a small correction to the swordarm though and glued the blade next to the head, as the sword was a bit bent and i know bent details tend to return to that shape over time i didnt want to risk that. almost no other changes made, only added some etched stuff to the sword handle, nothing spectacular.

Nice shield! Gorgeous job as usual, Skel! BTW - does the skeleton dude tell his comrades his shield is a self-portrait? :silly:

 

[Tobias Bayer]

Really good paintwork

 

[Meph]

Great stuff! That skeleton looks very moody.

 

[SkelettetS]

cheers! not much to update, been working the vamp a little. after trying to get the f*cking face look decent for hours i decided to put it under the knife for some plastic surgery. finecast is indeed easy to work with, luckily...

still loooooots of work left.....

 

[ischa]

that sculpt... absolutely hate it. pj looks great though=) as far as i remember i liked painting the details of it though. lots of bone
