LALA Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Hello! I'm new to posting on the boards, although I've been lurking for some time. I was coerced into posting some pictures up of my Chaos Biker, so here goes. Comments and Feedback and super welcome, as I am not a mini-painter. I'm a Illustration graduate but traditional painting and Warhammies are two different worlds. Things I know but for some reason I didn't do: This is my sixth mini ever, and I know to thin my paints and for some reason I blanked on that one. The pictures amplify the brush strokes, but that criticism is welcome and I'm not terribly happy with this mini. The front pole broke so it's a bit wonky. A lot of mis-painted spots have been fixed now that I got to study some pictures of it up close. I'm not really about the clean GW look with highlighted edges. I think it looks gorgeous on some models and when people paint in that style but I wanted something a little "darker" for the Blood God. I really like the forums and how everyone gives really good advice with a good attitude. I'll continue to post as I work but enjoy my picture dump and thank you so much in advance for all the help :P http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g185/Reilala/bikeworldeatside.jpg http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g185/Reilala/BikeSide4.jpg http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g185/Reilala/BikeSide3.jpg http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g185/Reilala/bikefront2.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218334-lalas-world-eaters/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminatorinhell Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 But why are the guns crooked? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218334-lalas-world-eaters/#findComment-2603882 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LALA Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 @ Pegasus: Thank you very much :sweat: Rrrrrrgh As for the guns being crooked, it was a combo of trying to make look a little less symmetrical visually and an issue of getting the marine to hold the handlebars on a slant and getting them to fit in the bike.
