I think my minis would happily sit under the acronym DBCI; doesnt bear close inspection

The big fella wandering the forest



and a group of Devanu making a hasty exit close by.



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.

Good job Ork56, I think the green works well for the Devanu. 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.

You are far too hard on yourself. They are at a good gaming level, and the photos actually show them off nicely.
What's next on the painting desk?

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.   Grin

Nice base on Roban, and I echo the sentiments about the green Devanu; they are pretty cool.

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.

Very good, ork. Smiley 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. Cheesy

I forgot to mention how nice the bases are as well! Did you make them yourself?

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.
