Title: an exercise in poor painting and photography Post by: ork56 on July 03, 2011, 10:52:05 am I think my minis would happily sit under the acronym DBCI; doesnt bear close inspection
The big fella wandering the forest (http://i996.photobucket.com/albums/af83/ork56/Twilight%20pics/IMGP2536.jpg) and a group of Devanu making a hasty exit close by. (http://i996.photobucket.com/albums/af83/ork56/Twilight%20pics/IMGP2534.jpg) now you know why I wasnt fussed about missing the comp, but for me at least they look a lot better than when they were silver. ps Mods. sorry if the pics are too big, Im also no expert on resizing before posting.

Not sure I've seen any green ones yet. I love the earthy look of the big fella he seems very knarly and solid like a tree trunk.

What's next on the painting desk? Title: Re: an exercide in poor painting and photography Post by: Klute on July 03, 2011, 03:51:18 pm I really like the devanu, nice colour scheme. More than acceptable painwork too I must add. Minis arnt meant to be viewed under a microscope and as long as you enjoy painting them thats all that matters.
And enter the next comp please. It really is all about taking part. ;D Title: Re: an exercide in poor painting and photography Post by: ork56 on July 03, 2011, 04:12:30 pm You are far too hard on yourself.

What's next on the painting desk? a Kosok, Delgon bodyguard, derakeer and some striders Title: Re: an exercide in poor painting and photography Post by: TheGremlin on July 03, 2011, 11:45:27 pm Nice base on Roban, and I echo the sentiments about the green Devanu; they are pretty cool.

I want to see more! Title: Re: an exercide in poor painting and photography Post by: Pyre on July 04, 2011, 09:36:12 pm You are a clean painter, in that the coats of paint look even and from what I can see you're neat. Both of those skills are a lot harder to master than people think.
I echo Klute’s point on viewing minis. Put you pictures up on the screen and look at them from about 8 feet away and you'll see what he means. Title: Re: an exercide in poor painting and photography Post by: KDLynch on July 04, 2011, 09:45:13 pm Very good, ork. :) I'll also echo the 'green Devanu' sentiment here, and I really like how Roban came out. I also like the spots on the side of the neck of the furthest away devanu (jenta?). The red/green grishaks remind me a lot of south american poisonous frogs/toads. :D
Title: Re: an exercide in poor painting and photography Post by: Megatron0 on July 04, 2011, 10:53:06 pm I forgot to mention how nice the bases are as well! Did you make them yourself?
Title: Re: an exercise in poor painting and photography Post by: ork56 on July 08, 2011, 11:18:22 am the large bases are from Kerr and King - woodland ones for the 40mm and a scifi urban mammoth themed one for Roban!
the grishak are on slate bases from 616-designs K&K ones are very nicely detailed, 616 less so but cheaper; both my sets were well cast resin and I recommend either. |
