Interrupting the rhyming, just to show some work, but mainly to test out my new camera.
I have to get the hang of the flash and brightness and all that.
The third picture is WIP.

The Ogres are very nice, though I have to admit I like meself some bolder color compositions and outrageous patterns on the clothes as well as less deep shadows on the skin.

That Beastman shaman, the Chaos Champion, and the Bestigors are the tits.
Nice connecting of them all through clever color choice. I especially like the whiteish/off-white/cream cloth on the Shaman, which is contradictory to cliché, and that is, in my book, almost always a good thing when well done. If it's indeed supposed to be white (as it comes off in the picture) it is a perfect white with perfect shading.

Awesome, dude.

Thanks, but I can't take any credit for the colour choices.
I copied the examples that are found in the GW site. Not 100%, but pretty close.

For the ogres I copied the cards. To be honest, I like simple plain clothes for them.
Even the red pants I thought are a bit much. But I'll keep it this way, and do the card theme for the rest of the ogre bunch.

I painted these. They're supposed to look realistic in appearance.

They do. I like the boggy look with the greens and the browns and the patterns/bumpiness on the skin.

I textured their skin by spray-painting them first, and then going over it with a wire brush before priming it.

Tonight I fixed three of the 3D doors (I snapped them off of the sprue too harshly, making gaps in the bases) with milliput, and used the rest to base 5 more Bones mummies/tomb guardians on HQ bases, and added some texture to the bases of the three remaining wizards of morcar (I got a painted high mage from Spikey, the others were stripped), one chaos warrior, one orc and one chaos sorcerer.
Made a little progress on Mialee.
So next time I can start drybrushing all them doors, and perhaps finish Mialee. :D

It was a good evening.
Check out my YouTube channel Boardgame Heaven, and drop me a sub please!

I've been successfully wiping myself with my right hand for three days in a row now. Next week I hope I'll be painting again.
If you don't follow my gallery thread and drop your jaws in terror of this post, the joke's on you.

Nice! Glad to hear it. Keep practicing, you'll get the hang of it soon enough. In fact, I bet you'll be able to paint in no time.

Me? I'm slowly working on an enlarged modular board. I'm using corkboard and CP got me all worried about paint and glue making it warp, but it's turning out just fine for my standards. It curled after applying paint, but dried flat. The mod pudge made it dry curled, but I put some boards on them with books to help weigh it down and now they stay perfefectly flat. Got all the rooms, now on to the corridors.
this is where I've been posting my painting progress so far:
