Tzen Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Here is a quick snap of my painting table! The Gal Vorbak have been undercoated since this picture was taken, but the light has gone so no snaps! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/galvorb.jpg I have to admit to being a little intimidated by these minis. The level of detail on anything forgeworld is always pretty substantial, and it tends to bring out the deficiencies of my abilities! Still, the only way to improve is to keep challenging yourself!

ChromeZephyr Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 ...tends to bring out the deficiencies of my abilities You have those? No, honestly, I'm curious as to what you think you're deficient in because I'm consistently impressed by the quality of your work.

AlanofAngels Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 NICE! I love me some Gal Vorbak! I'm really curious to see how these bad boys come out Forgeworld just makes awesome stuff and I need all of it for reasons.

No, honestly, I'm curious as to what you think you're deficient in because I'm consistently impressed by the quality of your work. I sure do! I really need to be able to pull of small detail. I do okay on some minis, but on others I let myself down. I often take the easy route instead of going all out on specific parts of a mini. And other times I just don't get it right at all. Still learning! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/7/#findComment-3818451 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 Work in progress shots of my first Gal Vorbak. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/GV1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/GV2.jpg I'm still pretty nervous around this miniature, really trying to take my time with it!

Totem Pole Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 It allready looks great. Your edge highlights really make the FW detailed armour pop.

Tzen Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Just waiting for the paint to dry so thought I’d take another picture and grab a coffee! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/GV4.jpg Still loads of work to do, but wanted to share anyway!

Tzen Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Ta fellas! Apart from the dying inside bit... not sure if that's a good thing :o Well, this guy is nearly finished! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/GV8.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/GV7.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/GV6.jpg I just need to do the base, and tidy up the claw and the parchment, and then he is done! First Gal Vorbak mini down, four more to go!

Tzen Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Well, despite the allure of both the Gal Vorbak and the Space Hulk miniatures I have decided to finish off my final biker before carrying on with any of the above. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/5thbikewip.jpg I am a little weird in that if I don't finish a squad I have started or it isn't up to an okay standard it annoys me for ages. So I am going to finish this last biker then touch up the first one I ever painted a few years ago so that he is more in line with the rest of them.

Urauloth Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Ha, project dedication! I've heard about that... in rumours... That Gal Vorbak turned out magnificently, really love the highlights on the torn armour.

Tzen Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 Very slow WIP continues on my final biker.

Tzen Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 Well, the final biker is nearly completed. I can continue with my Gal'Vorbak and the Space Hulk box soon! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/biker5nearly.jpg This guy hasn't been stuck to the bike yet as I need to finish the backpack. This should however be completed by today!
