Hello!
Like many of you I decided to do a WIP thread. I logged in on this side not so long ago but I've spend a lot of time browsing the forum and the gallery. I'm still amazed with what some people can achieve on such a small scale.
Enough rambling, someting about myself. I started painting when I was around 13 years old, mostly GW actually, didn't know anything else. After 3 years (or 4, doesn't really matter) I lost interest in GW miniatures, because I never played the game, had no interest in it, all about painting them. As I said, I lost interest and the hobby was set aside waiting to be rediscovered. I didn't know anything about other manufacturers or about this amazing community backing this interesting hobby. About 4 months ago something caught my eye and after browsing the web and reading a huge amount of tutorials, painting old mini's and ordering new one's and losing myself in al the different techniques and how-to's, I said f*ck it, I'll post a WIP and see what you guys have to say about my mini's
Currently I have a dark angel veteran squad ( I know, GW again, but space marines, they are a weak spot), Warmachine Skarre queen of the broken coast, Eiryss mage hunter, a croak hunter and some Rackham mini's. And that's what this WIP will be about, the Rackham mini's, first up, crossbowman deserter:

I don't know alot about uploading images here and the picture looks too small, if it looks like crap on the forum, I'll repost the picture but the original size was enormous and I cropped it down to 370 x 480, hope that's ok but I doubt it
The cloak is ok I think, his face is hard to do I find, this is my 4th try, he has like some sort of a scar and it turns up to prominently on his face, then the armour is NMM obviously, I'm curious what you guys think, needs alot more shading and highlighting, this is my third try on NMM. I like the color, think that's a good start
So there it is, I'll try to update this reguralely.
C & C are welcome
