Getting better an better.

Oh and please use that halfling picture from you first thread as your avatar

Valetus · « **Reply #53 on:** February 06, 2010, 07:08:26 AM »

Very nice paint jobs and conversions. Really like the little details of the striped trousers or checkered helmet. Also that simple conversion of the unit champion is good. Can't wait to see what the knight looks like.

SUPERB!

Your painting ability is stunning, though I must ask,
How do you paint your faces/skin?

fbjorn · « **Reply #55 on:** February 06, 2010, 03:38:45 PM »

Can't really add anything to what's already said. I just hope you will keep posting pics.
Oh, and perhaps give us some hints on your painting recipe of yellow, skin, horses armor and all the rest.

You sir, are an amazing painter. I particularily like the way you do skin/faces. Very, very impressive.

The Drunken Halfling · « **Reply #57 on:** February 07, 2010, 04:15:31 AM »

Thank you All yetagain! You encourage me to get stuff done!

OK, so your asking me to part whit my painstakingly wroth secrets...

why not. but I cant reveal them all at once, so, I will start with the yellow..

Its a very easy and effective way: first apply a even coat of Iyanden Darksun, followed by a shade of water-down Dark Flesh. Just shade this into the recesses ore create your own folding in the cloth. The last stage is simply highlighting with Bleached Bone...TADA!

Moore secrets will be reviled i due time.
Cheers

I was recently thinking about returning to the hobby after a long hiatus.

Now I ask myself: why bother?

Great work. Much more can't be said.

GamesPoet · « **Reply #59 on:** February 07, 2010, 09:07:39 AM »

On the BSB's banner, I liked how the shading matched the shading on his clothing.

The halfling's face tones are excellent!

Love the purple and green colors mixed with the Averland scheme!

And the black, white, and yellow stripe pattern is outstanding.

It's good to see some (very) high quality stuff in this forum again - a great inspiration!

Because nobody gets to this level from day 1. If you want, I'll help you find a painting method to suit your skills.

The Drunken Halfling · « **Reply #62 on:** February 08, 2010, 03:50:22 PM »

Manage to make some progress..hope you like it! Will hopefully have him finished in the next day or so:

Cheers

This will be entered in the Golden Deamon right?

VladimirDeathblade · « **Reply #66 on:** February 08, 2010, 04:47:11 PM »

I'm curious as to how you did the nose/mouth of the horse. It's fantastic, and one of the most realistic horses I've seen!

At a guess I'd say it's highlighted up, with a watered down red wash over.

I love your painting! There's so much detail, and the free hand work is incredible. Stupidly neat too!

I can't wait to see more!

Silvero · « **Reply #67 on:** February 08, 2010, 05:55:20 PM »

When I see this, I have a feeling I should crush all my models with some (war)hammer....
Great work. Very inspirating. Wish I could paint as good as you some day....

wilddragon · « **Reply #68 on:** February 08, 2010, 06:51:44 PM »

That is easily a golden daemon winner hands down, fantastic job its absolutely amazing.

FR1DAY · « **Reply #69 on:** February 09, 2010, 11:40:17 AM »

Wonderful!

What colour are you going to paint the cloak, the purple colour?

Shadowman · « **Reply #70 on:** February 09, 2010, 12:00:12 PM »

Holy c*rp!

Very good work I say.

I love the banner, so beautiful.

katzbalger · « **Reply #71 on:** February 09, 2010, 03:23:14 PM »

Mate, seriously, learn to paint. The rest of us are making you look bad.

Um.

Hang on.

That's not right, is it?

Seriously, that's beautiful stuff - your freehand work, and the smoothness of your painting, is beautiful. Also, you've a good eye for colour selection.
My only problem with it is that I had decided, definitely and absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, that I was going to do an Ostland army.

Maybe I'm going to do Averland though.

Have a beer

You are too kind, as usual.

And Drunken Halfling is, as usual, ridiculously good ^_^

Skyros · « **Reply #73 on:** February 09, 2010, 05:10:47 PM »

I really like your knight conversion, and your freehand on the banner is excellent.

skipper · « **Reply #74 on:** February 09, 2010, 06:10:55 PM »

Do this world a favor, and PLEASE post a painting tutorial (for ANYTHING!)
On a serious note, your painting skills are stunning, and tutorials would
boost both your popularity and.... *ahem* your karma...

Cheers!

Skipper
