Re: Future minis rumour roundup - 17 Oct update

I'm pretty sure the Wessex concept was for Uhtred. Once you read the books you'll see why he would be wessex.

Re: Darklands Models

Her freehand is amazing and she is the master/mistress of nmm. But I'd need to see if she can capture the grit of Darklands. Seb does that but I've not actually seen any of his other work.

Looking great JanSyr. Do you mean yours was inspired by Sorn's. I believe that was by the Mighty Seb. Not Bohun. Not enough random lines and colours for it to be a Bohun!

Cheers Razor! I thought I'd try and make the hair look like he's getting old. So grey at the roots and his younger hair colour at the ends. Dreadlocks contain lots of old hair which is no longer attached to the scalp but with nowhere to go! The hair is still in progress so will change a little.

These both come as a triad. Red glazes are also Reaper (not actual glazes but paint with glaze medium and water). Can'...

Then I get VMC oily steel and 'stipple' stlghtly less area with that. Then repeat wit...

I may be wrong but I have always thought that the belly 'plate' was tooled leather. that is certainly how I will do mine. I think the red will look better than the green Bohun has used on Ryans. I think I will go for a dark yellow/buff colour for mine, with dark red leather for the belly 'plate'.

Looking again I would say that the best piece of advice I could give you (and anyone else) is to thin your paint. At least 50/50 with water. Extenders and mediums I'll not mention just yet!

Re: SteamHammer's models

Nice work SteamHammer. I can see some easy ways to improve if you don't mind me saying. Looking at your Beowa it seems that you have only put a metallic base coat on the axe. It needs more interest as it is a large area of flat colour at the moment.

How long have you been painting?
