If it wasn't for the gutter my mind would be homeless.

Re: Neolis' Finished mini
reminds me of Rackham a bit, but I think I can't remember it in their range...
Re: Neolis' Finished mini
It is a Rackham mini.

Re: Neolis' Finished mini
and the weapon - are these polished and stained metals or painted and very smooth metallics?
Re: Neolis' Finished mini
Well I hate to answer a question with a question but.... You can polish metal minis?
Did the metalic bits with gunmetal, chaos black, and mithral silver (a new pot) why the space marine guy was so bad.

Re: Neolis' Finished mini
oh yes, you can. that's a pretty common way of achieving the metallic effect by historical modellers.
you polish it to achieve the metallics sheen and then stain it with dark washes to create shadows.
check the 6th paragraph for some notes I wrote long time ago.
and your metallics look so shiny that I thought you used the polishing method.

Re: Neolis' Finished mini
There was one on here a while ago by someone who polished and lacquered a knights helm... looked totally fantastic and I think your metallics are brilliant BTWNeolis wrote:You can polish metal minis?
Getting back into the thick (or rather thin as in thinning my paints) of it, not picked up a brush in some time so this may hurt a bit until I get used to the feel of them again
