Title: Tony's painted models Post by: Carcharoth on April 17, 2011, 09:32:19 pm Tony's a good friend of mine who is rather nifty with the hairy sticks. He let us use his Devanu at the big salute game, so I nabbed the opportunity to get a few photos :)

I must admit it's surreal seeing a force with less Grishak than Devanu.

My favourites are the kosok.. Loved the wing details. Title: Re: Tony's painted models Post by: darth tater on April 17, 2011, 09:53:41 pm They look great! As they also did yesterday :)
They have a very "natural" look and could almost be real......... Title: Re: Tony's painted models Post by: Carcharoth on April 18, 2011, 08:58:13 am They mesh very well with Ben's paintjobs, but the adults are a little lighter.
Tony spent a lot of time on the kosok's trying to work out what I meant when I described my view of the wings as having flecky patterns on them. He did a great job on the end. I'm not sure he'll be happy with me when he sees that one of them has a couple of chips :-[ Title: Re: Tony's painted models Post by: clam on April 18, 2011, 10:48:04 am They sure are impressive. Tony did a great job, and hopefully all the nice pictures and kind words - will make it all worth it. And after all they are gaming pieces , right? ;D
Btw: Is there any 'official' colour guide to the Devanu - not that I would follow it, of course. But still curious to know what the original were meant to look like.

You'll have to ask Mike on that one. For most of the painting I do for him he is very relaxed about what schemes I use so there is little in the way of official colours, more a vague guidance from above on some of the models *. If anything I do gets adopted as official then great, but there's plenty you can do without having to worry about officialdom. The World of Twilight is a varied place indeed *In fact Mike often has mini heart attacks when I tell him what plans I have for his models ;D Title: Re: Tony's painted models Post by: halfmileduck on April 18, 2011, 12:22:12 pm Thanks Mike, they were a real pleasure to paint, the Devanu models are beautifully smooth, with lots of detail to work with and large areas of musculature to highlight.
I really should add another 4 Grishak to the force, but am also sorely tempted with the new spear carrying model, so it is a toughie... |
