Re: Scott Radom's stuff.
Very smooth painting overall, very little errors. By the way I don't think it's a mold line on the leg? Just a feature on the pants and boots?
Some areas have very good contrast: skin, blanket roll, etc. It would be cool to see this in other areas as well especially the dark browns and reds have little contrast.

Re: Scott Radom's stuff.
Cool job, the only remark i can make is the higlight on the black back thing, its too strong for the rest of the stuff near it.
Other the that good job

Re: Scott Radom's stuff.
Although harsh in few places, like the already mentioned blanket, it is a decent paintjob.
I like the skin, even without midtones, and the smoothness on the shield.
I like the clothes and leather parts as well.
The helmet however would benefit from some more highlight, and so would the sword.
Altogether nice job!

Re: Scott Radom's stuff.
Thanks guys, agree about the crits. The line on the boots and pants is a molded in detail and not a missed line (thankfully!).
I like the point about the skin, I will work in more glazes of colour on my next mini. I am trying an Ogre so if the colours come out a little wierd it might still look a little more natural being on a monster instead of a human. If that makes sense. I'll post plenty of WIP stuff to pick your guys' brains over.
Also good point about the shading on the red and metals etc. I'll push it further!
Barton the earth is fine sand painted Vallejo flat earth. It get's washed with very thin Vallejo Olive Drab, Black Brown, Orange Brown in spots and GW thinned purple and black washes in spots. I haven't drybrushed it with anything and I am contemplating doing that on the next on eof these bases I do.
Thanks again for the comments and crits, I really value them!

Re: Scott Radom's stuff.
I played in a Flames of War tourny over the weekend. I had a good time, and I really like that game. It motivated me to paint up one of the armies I've had kickin' around here for a bit. I did this one up as a test. I'll go with some lighter highlights and a different colour ud on the next one. I also have to change up the way the paint chips came out. Not sure how yet.

ANy thoughts on this stuff? Any special tips for working at this scale? Any general things I should be doing? This stuff is going for the table, but I'd really like it to look sharp as can be. TY gang!

Re: Scott Radom's stuff.
in thisscalei would sey - Smoke ink FTW
Smoke ink + hell lot of water over surfaces will shade them without bad side effect
(realy it reqire a lot of water )

Painted this up all fast and furious style. It's a Chaos Dwarf from Hasslefree I am painting as part of a "Paint for profit" challenge over on wamp. I think some dude on Dakka started soing a thing where he gave himself a small budget to buy and paint a mini. Sold it, and bought another project etc. My goal is to get 500$ cash or so by the time I go to Germany to get drunk at the end of September. So this dude cost me around 6.50$ after postage. I gave myself an initial budget of 10$, so I'll carry over $3.50 onto the next project. I have another bunch of these Chaos dwarfs I can paint up, if this guy sells at all. As for the mini, the robe looks WAY too similar to the chest/back piece of armour and the weathering and paint chips look like ass I think.
