Having failed miserably to take part in this years ToEG, I figured I'd start a log to record the painting I do, and hopefully motivate myself to complete more of the piles of stuff I have lying around. Due to various Real Life commitments hobby time is a premium for me, so anything I paint needs to have an effective, simple and quick paint scheme. Don't look at any of these models if you want artistic inspiration - I take no responsibility for anyone copying anything I do!!! Cheers Reedar |

Base coating done on the first one. Experimenting with colours scheme at the moment. How much detail is too much/too little? How much do you guys pick out on these things?! Cheers Reedar. Apologies for the shoddy photo - taken on a phone in poor lighting.... Attachment: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1347830274.423168.jpg [ 88.43 KiB | Viewed 11024 times ] |

Right. Test mini finished. I'm happy with the overall look, but I'm not pleased with how the rider looks. The flames didn't come out that well either, but am I being harsh as it's a tiny space to work in? C&C welcome guys Cheers Reedar Attachment: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1347914435.380156.jpg [ 71.02 KiB | Viewed 10957 times ] Attachment: ImageUploadedByTapatalk1347914446.493234.jpg [ 86.28 KiB | Viewed 10957 times ] Again, pics aren't great as they were taken on a mobile.... |

Looking good! I see what you mean about the flames, but as you said, the scale is not the biggest of big. |

I reckon it looks pretty damn spiffy, the flames could be a little better, but I know there are limits to brush sizes and steady-handedness

Quote: I like them! My 2011 ToEG was about orks - I went about skorchas and buggies like this: but I had a bit more time. I think yours have just the right amount of detail I don't dislike the flames you did, but maybe they'll be more effective coming from a dark line at the bottom as well, like this? Cheers for this Rasta, I like the look of your orks. I did consider painting the 'lip' at the bottom of the flame area, but decided it would be too thich. You're deffo right though. I'll try a line out on the next one.... |
