....Cries.....

I've been painting these FOREVER, on a black undercoat - still have one to finish and not sure if I can get there...

I'm pretty sure the same thing goes for grey. The first yellow I did took 4 coats. I learned my lesson to stay away from yellow for a while. After seeing some videos of yellow over black versus yellow over white I agree with the king on this one completely. All hail the king and his suggestions mandates.

Made from cereal boxes and straws.

In the miniatures department:

Finally got my Trygon put together

And finally got this genestealer patriarch and his familiar put on bases.
The big guy is so heavy so I didn't dare just gluing him on the base with just one foot. I had to drill a hole to slip his uhmm... hole peg? into.
Like vice the small ones were so flimsy so I cut their slotta-thingy off except right under their feet. Then I tweezered them into round pegs to slip into tiny holes I drilled.
They wont break off even if they get run over by a car!

In the painting department:
A while back I showed you a WIP of this painting. It is now done and shipped. yay!

And a new WIP. It's Bomb Jill! A Rule 63 of Bomb Jack from the arcade game by he same name.
These are the very first crude couple of layers

Of course the bomb is gonna be lit, but that comes at a later stage.

And finally a couple of sketches. These are the first two of a sci-fi/fantasy trilogy. I'm really getting into it now as I have a couple semi-big exhibitions to attend.
Knowing I get to show my paintings to an audience really sparks my motivation. And I don't really like bringing old stuff to these things...
First up is a final version sketch:

And a crude first draft one:

Awesome minis and paintings man!
Didnt I already see a version of that scifi amazon girl earlier?
And I dont remember Bomb jack wearing a horned helmet... cool painting nonetheless.

I finished my Sir Ragnar mini, a d&d Regdar mini from the boardgame on a HQ base. Will post pics soon.

Yes, I made a better sketch.
And Bomb Jack has always worn a horned helmet, though not with THAT big horns :lol:
