Aha, but alex, you see old chap, although a commendable effort, I\'ve not got all my display projects and other secrety stuff on this log, which would boost my # of projects here to far more then 15 ;) Oh and nick, you forgot my OOP dwarf army :p Although it\'s not really been mentioned in this log work is resuming upon it :)

I\'m talking about the stuff on my desk being worked on mate ;)
Yesterday was GW Edinburghs 15th birthday and as such there were celebrations (and cake!), and one of the things was a raffle, in which I managed to win 3 of the 15 prizes :D

First edition Horus Rising, limited edition Grombrindal the white dwarf print, and an ork relay team they were using in the Orkylimpiks.

Also progressed with my dawi, finished one thunderer (well, two actually, but one is being repainted)

And done 5 of the bases with the exeption of the dead grass and baserims.

Oh and for anyone wondering, I\'m not just ripping off matts brettonian army scheme, and I\'ve been using and planning on this scheme long before I saw his brets, and I\'ve got dated forum posts to prove it :p

Ta,

No replies at all? :( I shall forge on regardless, finished another of the Marauder thunderers today, quite pleased with the yellow.

Hiya Squig!

I really dig those skin tones!

The reddish tint to the nose is perfect.

Keep it up, looking great!

Second one looks much better than the first one! But, that could quite possibly have to do with the sculpts. Quality paint jobs! Only thing that bugs me is that the cap on the second dwarf looks unfinished.

Looks really good! You going to be able to do a screen too and maybe a vase with orchids or is that asking too much?

Very correct good sirDaN :p

@liz *hmm* screen maybe, probably not both, would be too crowded on the base I think.

Have been messing around with some pigments, weathering kits and a base, and got this;

Pic is a tad washed out, but I\'m fairly happy with it, although, methinks I need some lighter rust pigment *hmm*. Thought I\'d paint the skull as if it was weathered and burned, not sure I succeded.

C&C welcome,

Right next to the frontmost rock, on the left:p Work has slowed slightly due to schoolwork etc. so I won\'t be able to paint 1 dwarf a day, as much as I\'d like to :) The 5 dwarves a week seems a bit unlikely now. Have finished another thunderer though, and am pretty happy with it.

Wow!!

Just gone through this thread and you certainly get through the minis quickly.
You have a lot of good stuff going on and some great ideas. The only advice I can give though is to always try and be as neat as possible.
I feel in your pursuit of getting it done you take a few shortcuts. Thats fine for table top stuff, but if you always paint like this you may find it hard to be more disciplined for your competition minis.
