My third time painting what is probably my favourite sculpt from age of sigmar and I wanted to revisit him with an updated skill set and some different techniques.
Acrylics, enamels, oils, varnishes and glues, real fur, an absurdly opulent crypt base… lots of fun!
Heretic legion Death Commando redux.
Another mini that had been sat on the desk almost finished for weeks, I managed to throw a couple of hours at him yesterday to get him over the finish line.
My second time painting what is probably my favourite sculpt from trench crusade, this guy was printed at 120% to give more room for details.
I wanted this to be more of a study into metals than anything, from the subtly weathered steel armour to the oxidised bronze accents and heavily rusted chain mail, I avoided adding any texture pastes prior to painting (apart from the chain mail) instead letting the ensuing layers of paint tell the story.
Some suitably necrotic flesh, old scraps of tattered cloth, rudimentary gore effects on his claws, scratch built stealth field antennas and hand made barbed wire for the base completed the relatively simple approach.
Thanks for looking and I hope you like him!
I think this piece mostly turned out! I sculpted the fire which was a first for me. I feel like the photos didn’t turn out though - anyone have tips for taking better pictures? I have an iPhone 13 — maybe the camera isn’t good enough? The quality doesn’t seem to compare well to other minis I’ve seen.
Hope you enjoy the piece!
These boyz been around a while, were my first attempt at nmm.
I wanted to try a living tree. So good time to give these boyz a proper home.
The past few weeks I’ve been painting up these minis for the game Greathelm (really fun small skirmish game played on a 12x8 inch board. Each side needs 6 models so I chose 6 NFL teams per side (AFC vs. NFC).
The models are 3D prints made my Skullforge studios.
I realize that I missed some amazing (and not so amazing teams) and might paint up more in the future. So who do you think I missed?
Miniature hand sculpted by max.buriachenko (inst).
kind of practice piece for skin and nnm gold (yeah, back is a bit lazy)
very nostalgic mini
Inspired by Richard Grays amazing work. I was too tight to pay for his tutorials so tried to reverse engineer the techniques as best I could. First proper attempt at NMM.
What a model!
Just finished this mini and I'm really happy with the result! I know there's a lot that could be improved, but my eye isn't developed to say exactly how to improve from here. So any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
This Mini took me around 8 hours I think but I am fine with that amount of time, one mini per day is the sweet spot for me. The cape was really difficult for me, I redid it like 4 times even stripping the paint off after the second try because I lost some details in the purple bony things.
Personally I think I should just get more minis painted and after that look for things to improve?
What do you think I should name this gentleman? I’d like to write something on the base plate
Completed my Zaku II for the Gundam Assemble Showcase
Continuing to work through LotR JiME for a friend that owns the game using the wonderful tutorials by Sorastro.
Happy with how these have been shaping up for the most part though I feel like I’m struggling a bit to step outside the paint-by-copying that Sorastro makes so easy with his guides. Appreciate any C&C I can take an apply to the remaining models
Painting in this style is very satisfying. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out.
