Another beginner WIP thread...

[Chaotic Creations]

These guys look great man, nice job... I really like the colour scheme you have chosen...

 

[alim192]

the colour scheme on the stormcasts is nice looking forward to seeing more. Do you think you will try other large scale models?

 

[Ddmkr]

Oh, for sure, painting 75mm was very refreshing and an enjoyable experience. I plan not to buy any models until I finish what I have and then I will move to painting bigger scale. It might take some time though as I have a lot of backlog (all Shadespire expansions and a couple of single minis).

 

[frzntoz]

Finished is good! And they look great - nice bold colours. I also like what you've done with the bases.

 

[Maenas]

Super good for the time invested. Much better in fact that a lot of people out there selling themselves as "propainters"

 

[Ddmkr]

Thanks everyone! During last year I noticed a big improvement with the speed that I paint, without loosing much quality. Well, there are some sloppy edge highlights, but nothing that can't be fixed with minimum additional effort.

 

[Ddmkr]

I started with Khorne side of the Shadespire box. An exercise in painting different shades of fleshtones, only airbrush/wash for now, I will add additional highlights with a brush later.

they look like great models to practice on really cool. good idea trying out different recipes as well.

I like the different skin tones you have started on these guys.

Blasphemy. That type of rational thought can't be tolerated around here! Lol

Well, I promised myself that one year ago. And then I bought some Death Guard Plague Marines. And then some Primaris. And then all of Shadespire. So, I'm not that good at keeping promises

LOL. I will consider the crisis averted then!

I have it tattooed on the inside of my eyelids. I still buy far more than I paint

 

[Ddmkr]

Khorne guys finished - took more time than Stormcast cause of 2 models more and overall complexity of the models, but it's still a quick tabletop level job, about 3h per mini. I'm taking a break from painting for the next 2-3 weeks as I'm taking a holiday I'll be back soon!

 

[Foxtail]

They're looking awesome dude. I particularly like the glowing eyes. Nice smooth painting all round

 

[Ddmkr]

Thanks! Eyes are not how I imagined it, but it was a good first try, next time they will be better.

 

[Chaotic Creations]

These turned out great man, I would love to see how you would have done them if you invested more time in them!!! Cause they are pretty damn cool and you only put a few hours into them...

 

[Ddmkr]

I have all of the Shadespire warbands and I want them all done quickly, I'm aiming at no more than 3h per mini, so it's a rather quick paintjob. After I paint all of them I'll be back at my regular taking-two-months-to-fininish-a-single-mini timetable

 

[Ddmkr]

Another break from minipainting due to holiday season, but I'm back! Testing some bone schemes for my skellies, this is the latest iteration. Aiming for a high contrast look that does not require much work (20-30 minutes per one skeleton).

 

[KruleBear]

Gorgeous skeleton, especially for 20 minutes.

 

[Ddmkr]

Thanks. It's just a basecoat, two drybrushes ane one spot highlight, really quick scheme.
