thx for comments:)
I uploaded the pics with photobucket. Hope it's better now:)
(is that a space marine?)
yes, it is. It's black templars emperor's champion.
The only thing I wish you had done was to blend the base with the plinth a little more.... Most noticeably on the first mini... the female elf... Perhaps just a touch of sand or pumice to ease the transition from the cork part of the base into the woodgrain plinth would have been nice. And it would have been nice to see some more finish work on the black wood plinths too... either varnished like the first one or textured stucco style or smoothed with some putty before the black paint. Seeing them painted flat black but with the woodgrain still visible makes it look like you rushed through the final presentation. Even though they are probably not actually attached to the plinths (and just put there for the photos) it is a bit of a let down considering the superior paint jobs.
you're definietely right :) to by frank I'm a bit lazy... I love painting but really dont like all that basing stuff. Guess I'll have to push myself a little harder in making bases, finishing plinths etc.

Much better thanks, I love the NMM you did on the guy with wings and the freehand on the other one is something I aim to do myself one day :D
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 :doh:

Hi
Finished painting lemartes. It was quite a fast paintjob, about 12-15hours. I like the model and the final effect even though some parts were rushed.

It'd take me days or more likely weeks to do a paint job like that, very nice ;)

great, I really like your style of painting

my only comment is that there are some tiny mistakes on the bases every time, for example with the last one you can still see where the basing material is put on the wooden base.

hello. Long time no update by me. I was quite busy but I tried to paint sth whenever I could. Right now I'm doing 2 projects for for Hussar.
Yesterday as a break from what Im working on I made this skaven lord for a friend of mine. I only painted it, the convertion was his. I spent about 4 hours on it so it was quite rushed. It was meant to be TT+. Hope it's enough for this level

I'd say it's at least Szary's table-top, so more than enough ;)

I'd be more than hapy for that as my TT quality, 4 hours!!! I'd take 4 days for that :lol:
