Cripes! Lardo has back up!




Warched a great film, had a great idea http://theleadpile.blogspot.co.uk/2014/ ... oseur.html

 

[Snickit]

Lardo and the Lardees!

 

[antipixi]

Rab - the flaming mop of doom turned out really well!

Lardo's Fat Burners for the win!

I'll chuck you all a PM soon with my address and the rules to roll up your characters before hand (it's pretty much the random character rules from the BOB).

Oh and I'll make sure there are spare minis available in case anyone doesn't manage to get theirs painted, Cough..Snicket..Cough...

 

[Snickit]

I'M DOING IT ALREADY!!!!!!!

It is me lagging in the painting dept I'm afraid to say as my chosen guy only reached primer earlier today

Still looking to bring a cleric but he is more likely to be Dwarven now rather than the half Orc I originally planned.
Hopefully he can still be a follower of Ulric?

 

[Snickit]

Most of my colours base colours are on now so should be done in time. Having a major issue with his eyes and photographing him just made me realise how bad, I've painted over them a few times and it shows. Highlighting I'm a horde painter, single miniatures are not really my bag..........................

 

[whiskey priest]

I just don't bother with eyes

 

[Snickit]

Oh blast, you're not helping Col!

 

[Snickit]

I just don't bother with eyes

I wasn't going to but because Rab and so Antipixi did i felt I should, shouldn't a bothered!!!!!

 

[whiskey priest]

Lol Peerhammer pressure!

 

[Snickit]

Lol Peerhammer pressure!

Indeed, I'll just stay in character and cast a big shadowy spell over my mini so none of you can see him................

 

[Mister Rab]

I just don't bother with eyes

I'm regretting trying! The muscle and Ladro I didn't bother with (and they look better), it was only because the torch fellow had suuch protruding eyeballs that I felt compelled to try

 

[Snickit]

Maybe it was just Antipixi's Elf then that stuck in my mind

 

[barney_leadhead]

At just 20mm high this Dwarf is taxing both my eyesight and the steadiness of my hand but the base colours are on and tidied up so just washes and highlights to go..... and despite the tiny size and the fevered painting pace I am enjoying the process

(not sure that I'll be attempting eyes before Thursday)

 

[antipixi]

Maybe it was just Antipixi's Elf then that stuck in my mind

Zoom in on mine on the image and you'll feel a lot better. At high res and close up my elven prince looks like lord of the 'special' kingdom!

Wooooooaaaaaaaaaa steady on there Fella, I was only referring to the fact you'd done the eyes

 

[Snickit]

Done, not great but he'll do

 

[barney_leadhead]

My Dwarf is pretty much done now..... I will do the eyes at some point but I definitely need magnification before I attempt these; the (not too good) photos cruelly highlight their absence but at normal viewing distances you really don't notice that they are not there

Shield will be held on by blu-tac for now as I may still want to highlight the belt and pack straps when I get a suitable colour and need access.



I may just tidy the edge of tha base up with another coat of black but as this only my fifth completed miniature and first 'live' subject I am pleased

 

[Snickit]

Very nice, we're almost ready to enter the dungeon!
