Don-Pino Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Look good, it appears you have some skills with a brush. I would recommend you to edit your pictures though, make them smaller, a picture of a model can be too big. Make it so the model on the picture is almost its real size, at the moment your highlights look crude 'cause we see a zoomed version of the model. Make it smaller, and I promise you, your highlights will look better. (nobody sees a model this close anyway...) Anyway, looks good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taz Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 imo the highlights look fine this close. Great minis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zincite Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Nicely done... How'd you convert that Lysander? Is that a plate off of a Venerable Dread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassill Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 That is some flippin awesome conversion work my friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 That is a big hammer. Big enough to make the Fist of Dorn look like the backhanded-baby-powder ***** slap of Dorn actually. Wicked work all around. Dorn would be proud. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don-Pino Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 That looks a lot better :P The model is very nice indeed, smooth and clean. Did you airbrush the rhino? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Apostle Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hectic Hector! Do show us more pics of him :P The rhino is also very nice. The rivets and extra armour are awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Carlin Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 That looks proper insane! That Rhino is probably the best one I've seen, I can believe by looking at it that it carrys troops into battle and will get them there safe and sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natanael Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Wow! So ... mud. What is your process? Yeah. Mud. I need to know ;) - Natanael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmine_the_Wolf Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 When I saw the size of the converted captain, I thought the "counts as" meant he was so big and buff that he counted as a rhino! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunThirster Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 Many thanks for the kind C&C guys, they have helped inspire me to keep on painting.. i now have a Dreadnought finished and ive started a Land Raider.. ill post some pics of these as well as more shots of Hector next time I get a little photo shoot going. To answer the questions: Lysanders breastplate is indeed the venerable dreadnoughts Sarcophagus, i wanted to make him look like a 4 wound, eternal warrior monster so it seemed like a good choice I didnt airbrush the Rhino, i own one but im to nervous to use it! I also suffer from cant-be-bothered-itis when it comes to setting up a studio in order to use it. The mud is actually really easy, just mix in some fine sand into scorched brown and apply generously.. dont be shy. Follow with a bestial brown highlight and then a light graveyard earth highlight. I stippled some graveyard earth just above the main body of mud to give a dried splatter effect. Hope these help! Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
