Title: Clash of Cultures *SILVER* Post by: Laughing Ferret on June 29, 2011, 07:13:34 am I thought I'd only have time to do one miniature, but I had a counter-part to the Delgon derak strider that I couldn't resist painting as well.
The result is a 'Clash of Cultures' as two nations approach a similar need with different solutions: (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/ClashofCultures720.jpg) individual pictures: (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/036.jpg)(http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/034.jpg) (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/037.jpg)(http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/038.jpg) (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/035.jpg)(http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/039.jpg) (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/029.jpg)(http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/031.jpg) (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/033.jpg)(http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/032.jpg) (http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/028.jpg)(http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/bb16/LaughingFerretStudio/Twilight/030.jpg) Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: Lost Egg on June 29, 2011, 03:23:07 pm Lovely paint job. I especially like the dark eyes on the knight.

Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: Megatron0 on June 29, 2011, 10:10:36 pm To echo HN the eyes on the knight are quite strikiing! Great job
Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: lightderakeer on June 29, 2011, 10:20:45 pm really like this, loving all the diorama's that are popping up :)
Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: TuffSkull on June 29, 2011, 11:33:22 pm Really nice work on both the figures. The conversion work is great and they pop out the screen in the first picture wonderfully, even if the colour balance is off. Nice stuff!
Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: KDLynch on June 30, 2011, 12:41:37 am Excellent job, Laughing Ferret. :) Danomar's armour is very striking, and the strider looks great in his dark colours. :)

Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: Laughing Ferret on June 30, 2011, 09:55:09 pm Thanks for all the kind words everyone!
I re-shot the photo and color worked out fine this time, so i replaced that image, and still within the June Deadline. phew! Thanks for the comments on Danomar's armor. I knew I wanted that color- I'd used it on my Devanu where they have scavenged fubarnii armor pieces, but the accent and saddle color was throwing me for a long time. I'm liking the orange leather and really looking forward to painting my fubarnii militia. Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: halfmileduck on July 01, 2011, 11:14:16 am The orange is awesome and not overpowering on the model. I particularly like the contrast with the cooling lime/green. That really works for me. Lovely entry, there are some really good entries in this competition, which is great to see!

The strider conversion looks seamless and Danomar stands out with his bright armour and the colours work perfectly. Good presentation with the photos as well :) Title: Re: Clash of Cultures Post by: Laughing Ferret on July 17, 2011, 08:55:35 pm Thanks Mike!
It was good to paint some twilight again. I'm looking forward to painting my fubarnii so Danomar has a force to lead ;) |
