Brother Caliban Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Dear Self-proclaiming Davey80y. Models are nice. However these all have the hollow hallmark of a modern commission painter. The complete reliance on airbrushing everything to death leaves the army lacking; Metals, faces and other details are neglected. Instead of enhancing to the models I feel they are in a blotchy overpowering airbrushing spew. The less is more rule surely comes to mind here and should be applied in the future. Okay just some C and C - don't cry. Apart from that the models have real potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrannosaurus Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 How dare you use an airbrush! That's not real painting... :angry: Excellent work as always, the GKs aren't my cup of tea [bit shiny] but the painting is flawless as always. What projects have you got on the go?

Davey80y Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 the nerve of me eh!! can you believe that i chose to paint my mini's in a style that i like and to be self proclaiming as well (what I've proclaimed I'm not sure but....) :-P   these prob aren't going to impress brother caliban but i like how they turned out (I'm going for a upper table top standard i think they fit the bill) :-)  http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp327/davey8oy/DSC00464.jpg  http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp327/davey8oy/DSC00465.jpg  http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp327/davey8oy/DSC00468.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Really nicely done on those GKs. They look so crisp and clean, just the way they should be (in my opinion). Â Ps. I love your airbrush work and i wish i had one myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Angelus Sanctus Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Although we are all entitled to our own opinions, let alone our own personal approaches on how we elect to paint our minis; if we could all play nicely that would be greatly appreciated :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Caliban Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 @ Davey80y, the 'self proclaiming' comment was merely making fun at the post title. My comment is nothing more than an expression of frustration at my own shortcoming being unable to complete an army, owning no such airbrush and generally possessing some models that look like shart in comparison to those featured here. Â Best. Â C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephrael Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I like the shiny but worn look of the Grey Knights. You certainly do have impressive painting skills both with a brush and airbrush. My only criticism would be that the OSL on the Knights looks a little inconsistent from marine to marine. It may just be the pictures or the way that I'm looking at them but it catches my eye none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey80y Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 Back with more......

Dragon Claw Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I'm going to say that you've attempted to add the element of fire to your umbrella by marking it with the sigil of the salamander in an effort to keep it permanently dry.

Davey80y Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 almost...... :-P  http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp327/davey8oy/DSC00565.jpg  http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp327/davey8oy/DSC00566.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I think you're a bit off on your calculations when you painted over the original size of the cartridges. 75 MM is a HUGE round. Like, artillery. Â And .75 MM is, well, miniscule. Â Nice stencils though. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SickSix Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Great work. Â I find harsh criticism coming from someone with no gallery images well... a bit empty. Â Keep on doing what you do Davey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey80y Posted June 24, 2012 Author Share Posted June 24, 2012 damm your right that should be .75 cal not mm....... will change that :-)  here's what goes in the box  http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp327/davey8oy/DSC00556.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
