Terminatorinhell Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Hey guys, in this hobby, everyone has to start from somewhere, and it is always nice to see how we improve over time. I personally found an old mini of mine and decided to photograph it next to my favorite company champion and my most recently finished mini as a comparison, you giys tell me how it looks and this thread is also for everyone else to post their older and most recent minis!:P http://i29.tinypic.com/opctjk.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminatorinhell Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 Man SB, that is some wicked improvement, I love your IW lord! In my group of minis, the assault marine was from '07 , the Champ from late '09-10 and the SG from a week ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cain Tiberius Kondrad Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I truely wish I had some of my very first mini's :woot: I started bout 15 years ago and would probably about the same as sword brethren's first mini's. My girl friend is starting to get into it, but is getting down hearted that her's aren't as good as she would like (IE like mine.) I've been teaching her some of the tips and tricks I've learned over the years. Keep trying to tell her that her's are a hundred times better than my first attempts, but she wont believe me. ;) CTK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plague Dave Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 My current project (the last thing promised in my Call of Chaos), is actually repainting my metal Plague Marines. I started this army about 6 or 7 years ago, and they just don't hold up to things I'm painting nowadays. This isn't a before, and after, but you can clearly see the difference (new scheme on the left ... but I hope I didn't have to point that out). I've got 4 marines done from the first of two metal squads now. The second squad (from which the dude on the right hails) will receive the same treatment eventually.
