In keeping with tradition - my last figure was posted in January 2004 - here is my latest completed figure :rolleyes:

She\'s a lovely Amazon from Darksword, just so much detail on those 28mm figures :D Any comments gratefully received...together with any votes too ;)

Hopefully she won\'t be my last for 2005 ;)

Very nice job, I prefer your paintjob to the one they use to sell it. You definetly have to paint more this year I would love to see some more of your work. I also think the grass on the base is excellent you have to tell me how you did it :D. A few close ups would be good especially of the face. Keep up the good work.

T, I know that new BF\'s can be a great distraction, but set Peter aside (clamp him to his own paint table with those mole grips) and paint more. lol

Glad to see you painting and posting.

very nice,

I really like the colors and the very subtle tones.

Maybe it is just this pic, but the eyes look a bit funny.???

Still, quite a start to 2005, lets hope we see much more of your stuff this year!

Beautiful work, T_S :DI agree with Brother Tom: I love the base. That\'s some of the most realistic dirt and grass I\'ve seen. And, no, I\'m not claiming to have not noticed the nice flesh work. ;) I think Peter should sell that Fleshtone mixexclusively through CMON. However, even with the perfect mix, it still has to be applied correctly and highlilghted/shaded properly. Beautiful work,Toosh. HOpe to seee lots more of it from you this year.

Gosh.....

..thank you all for your kind comments. I know I\'m not exactly a prolific painter and each time I finish a figure I amaze even myself! This is my 5th figure on CMON now, so once I get 50 votes I\'ll finally have a ranking :D

I do love painting, I just seem to get so distracted :rolleyes: but now that I\'ve got a fantastic b/f who also paints, I\'ll have no excuse not too lol

I\'ve got quite a few things in the WIP stage, so maybe a flurry of uploads will happen over the next couple of months :D

Re the grass - again, with a little advice from Peter, it came out well. I simply flocked the cast base and then washed the flock with a dark green - US Olive Drab I think - then I did a series of highlights by dry brushing.

For the dirt, I again enhanced the normal cast base with some textured gel (basically the same as PVA with sand added) and then based with Scorched Brown and again a series of highlights drybrushed on with Khaki.

Thank you again for your kind comments and generous votes :D :bouncy:

Cheers

T
