Goliaths and House Escher

[Darklighter]

Trying some different colours on these took some working out as they where very muted military tones. Normally working from bright colours and having to darken and mute them my self made working with these colours a very different process! 

 

 

 

I think I've managed to make them work.

Damn, they look intimidating. Good job.

[Magos Takatus]

Looking good! Would it be possible to get some close ups, please?

[Darklighter]

Thank you Bjorn Firewalker and Flame Boy I'm glad you like them.

 

As an army painter not a display/showcase painter close ups don't really do my work justice. It's not that they look rough, they just aren't painted to be very photogenic up close. People do display my work and like it, but it's not what my finish is for primarily. I work quickly with a fast turn over of models in between other hobbies and work. My paint style is about impact and atmosphere not painstaking detail.

 

Sorry if that sounds condescending, but I get this question a lot. Same as my Photography style, My minis look best on the table or at an arms length so I take pictures to show off that aspect. Do they look good close up, yes. Does it show them off to their fullest potential... No!

You could always commission something and find out for your self.

haha good try , but if i'm frank i'll say that when i pull out the proverbial and get something done ...it's as good as yours  

I'm a poor(but happy) guy with a wife and child and this hobby taxes my spartan hobby funds considerably...Now if i was made of money AND lazy i'd throw work your way most definitely  

i do like your colour choice's though and your technique, so i get great idea's from your postings, like the roboute guilliman colour scheme   for example.

 

Cheers, Mithril
