Master class painting the GW way :)

I spotted this picture in the latest Black Gobbo (https://us.games-workshop.com/e-zine/iss ... efault.htm). The article is called "Masterclass painting in Lustria". I have my doubts.....

maybe you have to watch it at 1mt. of distance and then it will appear smooth

yeah, my idea exactly ...

It looks as if all colours are straight out of the bottle. Not thinned with water, no mixing with other colours. (only with white or bone for the highlights on the crest)

You can see he spend extra time on it, since it's a character and all...

it must be 5mm scale and huge close-up

poor job for masterclass

WHAT IS THIS ?!?!?! GOD ! Where that paint???

Nope, he's not kidding. Here's the page just before that pic. https://us.games-workshop.com/games/warh ... Mskink.htm

You can get close-up photos of several parts of the figure, and the one Corvus put here is one of the photos available. And its at the size he put it here. The whole figure looks like this when you see the close-ups.

They must have been pretty desperate for a figure to put in this issue....

Aaawww....Somebody should shoot the person who painted this, the agony and the pain this miniature must have gone through!
