They look great, especially Eirik's pants

AndyP · Postby **AndyP** » Sat Mar 02, 2013 8:42 am

Nice one. They look great. Top notch work.

wow, nice work. eric's pelt and pants especially. you must have been gifted with the ability to draw straight lines. I don't think i've been as lucky.

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Sat Mar 02, 2013 10:19 am

Thanks again Bloodwars. I think I just took my time the trousers/pants. That's about a year old now I think.

Fantastic stuff Andy, definitely and inspiration. And I'm still taken with Eiriks trousers!

Postby **Tim Fisher** » Mon Mar 04, 2013 9:24 am

I always like to see these guys - Eirik's stripey trousers do it for me every time!

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Mon Mar 04, 2013 10:19 am

I'll be starting a WIP of my Trolls soon. Trying out some new techniques. Just have them undercoated at the moment. Black with white over the top. Need to set up a photobucket account!

bloodwars · Postby **bloodwars** » Mon Mar 04, 2013 2:30 pm

get a photoshop account (free, 2gb, has some editing built in the web site (color sat/hue, resizing, rotating, cropping, some filters, etc etc etc)

Really love the paint jobs. You are an outstanding painter. Please keep posting your models!

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Wed May 22, 2013 6:09 am

Thanks Ryan. Great praise since you certainly know your painters! I have some non MM pics on my WAMP Page.

Endor · Postby **Endor** » Sun Jun 02, 2013 5:32 am

Oh yes, I have to join the chorus here - great work AndyS!

I really like Creoda and the different hues on him. Yes, I agree Eirik's pants, the skintones, Meloda's face are also beautiful stuff, there's just something about Creoda that has been growing on me, and you have done such a great job on him.

Cheers

Cheers Endor! I hope to have more to go in here soon. Once I get my troll bases. Oh, and the rest of the trolls of course!

Here's my unit catagory entry for Darklands 2013

Hope you guys like them!

AndyP · Postby **AndyP** » Mon Sep 02, 2013 1:51 pm

They look awesome. Can't wait to see more of your Mjagnir too. Very nice work.

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Mon Sep 02, 2013 1:58 pm

May have more Mjagnir WIP tomorrow. How are yours getting on Andy?

AndyP · Postby **AndyP** » Mon Sep 02, 2013 2:21 pm

I wish I could say it was going well, or even going at all. I've had a major drain on my spare time all through July and August and finished it off last weekend with going to Reading Festival. I am now clear of it all though so I shall continue with Beowa this week. Got the fur done on bear form but it has come out more brown than black so need to either wash it more towards black or start again with a slightly different palette. Also I tried taking a couple of WIP shots but my lighting isn't great and you couldnt see the detail properly so will need to invest in a light tent off eBay before I photo him for the comp. All in all pretty depressing so far :-(

zedmeister · Postby **zedmeister** » Mon Sep 02, 2013 3:27 pm

Fantastic stuff Andy. Lovely trolls. Now that I've finished Maagaan, I need get more of my Fomoraic done. I've got Tundaar and Kraan (both versions) on my assembly board - need to glue fill and spray now!

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Mon Sep 02, 2013 3:55 pm

My Kraan on bear is still half built and has been for over a year now!

Sorn · Postby **Sorn** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 12:40 am

Damn, Andy! These are professional quality paint jobs. Wonderful work!

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 9:49 am

Thanks Ryan!

I am really very jealous of your skills

wrinklestiltskin · Postby **wrinklestiltskin** » Thu Sep 05, 2013 9:03 am

These are some wonderfull miniatures. Especially the Trolls.

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Thu Sep 19, 2013 11:54 am

Here's finished Mjagnir then.

And a close up.

He is a beast! The biggest model I have ever painted by far.

AndyP · Postby **AndyP** » Thu Sep 19, 2013 12:12 pm

Looks stunning. You should be extremely proud of that. He is a hell of an intimidating piece.

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Thu Sep 19, 2013 12:17 pm

Cheers Andy. I have had him built but unpainted since he came out. I had planned on painting him up for last years comp but didn't get the time. I'm glad he's done now though I can tell you!

AndyP · Postby **AndyP** » Thu Sep 19, 2013 1:14 pm

Had mine undercoated and ready to go in April but sweaty resin ruined that plan. Now I have to start cleaning and assembling again :-(

The_Minsk · Postby **The_Minsk** » Fri Oct 18, 2013 5:23 pm

Your models are exceptional, as are your bases, how do you do them, looks like you have some static grass and some foam clumps am I right?

shadowbcfc · Postby **shadowbcfc** » Fri Oct 25, 2013 1:21 pm

Some great paint jobs mate! Just about to paint up Kraan on foot what paints did you use for his armor? Cheers

JLLongshore · Postby **JLLongshore** » Sat Oct 26, 2013 3:45 am

Trolls still #1, better than Sorn's Seb's

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Fri Nov 01, 2013 9:23 am

The_minsk - I use woodland scenics fine turf mixed with pva and water. Grass tufts, not loose static grass. that sfuff is terrible!

Shadowbcfc - can't remember! That was a long time ago. I know the paints were Wargames Foundry. Dark and teal blues and Brass Barrel for the metal I think.

JL - thanks dude!

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Fri Nov 01, 2013 9:29 am

JL - I'd not seen Seb's Trolls until now, I think mine hold up pretty well. I'm happy enough!

Malachi B. · Postby **Malachi B.** » Sat Jan 18, 2014 1:29 pm

I think honestly that when u reach just a step further in paintin you'll become a darn serious painter Andy. Just say in.

AndyS · Postby **AndyS** » Sat Jan 18, 2014 1:37 pm

Cheers Mal. That's the hardest step!
