...at least one of them :) While I paint the 19 shields of the unit, I can post the musician here, since he doesn\'t have a shield. Plus, I\'m so happy with how the nmm came out, that I think he deserves a place of his own :D :

Hope you like him :)

I do like that Green, I can never get a green I like. How do you do it, what do you use (GW, Vallejo etc....Colours)?

I want an idiots guide :duh:

BTW: Voted and commented :D

I second the request(or was it a demand?) for an idiot guide...for the blue as well as the green.

Ok then, idiot\'s guide lol:

Green on armour: GW Dark Angels Green-->Snot Green-->Rotting Flesh (+a little white for the final highlights)
Green on instrument: GW Dark Angels Green-->Scorpion Green (+ a little white for the final highlights)

Blue: GW Regal Blue-->Enchanted Blue-->Ice Blue-->Ice Blue + white

Easy huh? And it\'s all GW colours except some of the greys in the NMM armour.

great stuff.

Your super smooth yet bright style is excellent.

It is almost like a page from a graphic novel, made in 3-d.

Thanks for sharing!

Astonia!! outstanding. I thought your first unit of high elves was great but they just keep getting better and better. When will it ever stop! (I hope it doesn\'t)

So...it too late to hire you to make 3000 points of high elves too? with lots and lots of spear guys? *ducks*

Nice job Anja, serious good work.

Edit: Avelorn, I spend somewhere around 10 hours per mini.

Thats what I\'ve always done, I think my GW snot & scorpion green have gone a bit \'weird\' ??? I think they are due for replacement.

They are VERY old (old coat d\'arms pop-tops). I think Vallejo are going to get more of my money.....

Cheers Anja ;)

Andy, he who has \'green\' issues :innocent:

This is a great paint job Astonia. My problem is figuring out colors that compliment each other and I never would have been able to imagine blue and green, but you\'ve done a great job here.

I swear, I need to get a color wheel .. my wife can \'view\' things in her head but I can\'t. Might just be what keeps me a mediocre painter.

Lovely job again!
