I like this figure and I like that it won without any gimics or trendy painting styles. It really is just a very nicely painted figure with excellent use of colour.
What do you lot think?
PS- If someone can teach me to link directly to another page's pictures then that would make me happy. Ira August 14th, 2007, 05:28 I like it too. very nice model. Koss August 14th, 2007, 05:35 Hot damn!:w00t: Thats sexy! Very cool model.:yes: Rabbit August 14th, 2007, 06:41 I've always been a fan of simple paint schemes. In the hands of a good painter, they really shine through. Legionnaire August 14th, 2007, 09:19 I've always been a fan of simple paint schemes.

Agreed.
Awesome paint job minus_t August 14th, 2007, 10:31 It is very nice, yes, though I wouldn't say gimmick-less...
If you want to link/post those pictures directly, right click on the link and "copy link" (or "copy link location"), which you can then paste as normal.
Alternatively, you can open the image in a new window (right click -> open in new window) and copy the URL from the address bar at the top.
If you put [IMG] tags around this, you should be able to post it as normal.

Doing what -t said but removing a "download/popup.htm?/" bit from the address. NiteRabbit August 14th, 2007, 10:36 Yeah, I can see evidence of a few fancy tricks. However, they're not overly fancy and the standard looks like something I could one day replicate with sufficient time and practice (yeah, right), which gives me hope that I might not be a completely lost cause :P. Tsele August 14th, 2007, 11:57 I have to agree with all the forespeakers... a very fine and clean painting job.
One thing though... there isn't a hope to tell us a thing or two for the conversion he has done eh? :shifty: King Ulrik Flamebeard August 14th, 2007, 19:07 I like this figure and I like that it won without any gimics or trendy painting styles.

Well... I can spot NMM. That's a fancy style. -__^ It is a nice mini, the freehand works well and the overall look is good. But he is done in NMM, which I still do believe that to stand a chance at a daemon these days you are required to paint using this method.
That said, congrats to the painter on winning a Slayer Sword and a fine mini.

Yes, it is a very spanky mini. Very nice. Though I have to disagree on NMM. I think the novelty has worn off and metalics are comming back. Though, in a very tight competition NMM may make the difference. Tarok August 15th, 2007, 13:19 Lovely work. Thanks for sharing :) | |
