multicolour or what to do with a broken mini that would be too much of a pain to repair so i had a broken mini lying around and i had been wanting to try a new technique so i picked it up and gave it a go its very colourful as i tried the same technique with different colours basically i tried glazing down rather than starting with a midtone then going up and down i started with the 90 brightest highlight and worked my way down now i did these very quickly and i havent spent more than 2 hours probably less for all the colours on here but i think the results are quite good given the speed i used a few transparent colours from vmc for this and i definitely plan on getting more and probably looking into inks after this experience i think if i slowed this method down a bit and put more thought into placement of shadows then this would be very effective its definitely going to be integrated into my repertoire for sure anyway enough talk here are pics i spent longest on the side in the first pic and i think it shows though i really like the way the orange neck bit came out despite taking less than 15 minutes as the colour is awesome picture doesnt quite capture it right posted

comment more painting some more progress on the dwarf and i also started the new plastic nurgle lord have to say that it has been alot of fun to paint so far and i think i am making some nice progress on it skin on his belly is nearly there though some blends need to be smoothed and then i need to add some more shading around his head havent got around to doing all the scabby things yet though oh and that shoulder area definitely needs work top of the axe is also pretty much done but the rest is just basecoats let me know what you think posted by noddwyr 18 01 2012 categories personal tags dwarf gw lord nurgle rackham leave a comment a new year and new techniques o not been doing a whole lot recently but have started a few pieces mostly to try new techniques finding that recently i havent been inspired to actually finish a piece more just painting to try out new techniques struggling to find a piece that makes me want to finish it anyway the first guy is just a start focused mostly on the skin on his back trying to use seb archers method found here the metallics are about 70 done i just need to glaze back the highlights and smooth out a couple issues in the shading the rest is just basecoats pretty much and a base i started for the pan mini from studio mcvey here i was looking at the fairies there is another in his hand but i havent got that far changing colour to tell emotions i figure since they are so small yelling probably isnt very effective so they have to use another way to warn each other so the bottom one was blue cold due to being suspicious and the picture doesnt show it at all actually but the face is scared as she has just seen pan grab for his knife so she is turning purple i plan for the one in his hand to be warmer colours but i probably wont get there for a while anyway sorry for the wall of text let me know what you think posted by noddwyr 11 01 2012 categories personal tags mcvey pan rackham studio leave a comment bilbo comes to town been doing some painting recently so i thought i would post up a few pictures of what i have so far bilbo still lots of work to do on him man this guy is small and a bust from the basement figure range really good quality cast and so far the figure has been fun to paint only got around to the head so far still lots to do sean the orc and a size comparison shot of the two the sheer size of the bust has its own difficulties i find especially without an airbrush but its a nice challenge for now anyway that all for now and probably until after the holidays so happy holidays posted by noddwyr 19 12 2011 categories personal tags bilbo orc sean the leave a comment the bust has moved along right more progress on him lots of pics upcoming he is getting on a bit though still a daunting amount to do not happy with the hair so will probably be redoing alot of it might take a break from this guy but we ll see and then my first foray into 54mm which has been a huge change from the bust finding it really tricky though at this point its still really basic posted by noddwyr 06 12 2011 categories personal tags bust orc sculpey sculpting super leave a comment its been a long time and i have been busy rethinking what exactly about this hobby i enjoy and where i want to spend my money have also finished painting a few minis which you can see here here and here just quick paint jobs to get me back into it and finishing off some old stuff so its not lying around also attended a chris clayton masterclass put on by the basement great folks go check them out and so have been sculpting since here is my first go which was done at the masterclass where we learned about proportion and chris methods for sculpting busts and since then i have moved on to this i ve actually done quite a bit since this picture was taken but am too lazy to take more pictures at the moment still a long way to go anyway anyway enough for now i will try to be more regular in my updates from now on as i plan to do have a more steady work flow from now on posted by noddwyr 26 11 2011 categories personal leave a comment khaurik s guard finished right this guy has been sitting on my desk for ages and i finally decided to get him finished off sooo many details on him that got irritating to paint after a while so i am calling him done and here is the link to vote if you are so inclined also if you havent already done so please do go vote on olsvalter thanks posted by noddwyr 26 09 2011 categories personal tags guard khaurik s rackham leave a comment violinist i have started the nocturna violinist he is 54mm so is quite a challenge so far i have only done the face its not entirely complete as i need to fix a few things and add some more colour to his eyes anyway i thought i would show a progression of my painting of his face so here goes keep in mind that these pictures show the face at 4 5 times the actual size picture 1 just some sketching of colours no real blending picture 2 started adding some colour and blending but wasnt happy with it as some of the colours were out of wack and picture 3 he is nearly done now just eyes to be fixed and more colour added and fixing some of the highlighting also need to tone down a few colours like the purple around the eyes posted by noddwyr 21 09 2011 categories personal tags nocturna violinist leave a comment im back well its been
