My Holiday Painting Project - Thraxas - 03-30-2013 04:41 AM Hi everyone, As I said in my other thread life (mainly work) has kept me incredibly busy for a long time. However, I now have two weeks off work and my wife is going away for 2 weeks with her sister to their brother's wedding. So I have a lot of free time with which I can paint the myriad of things I have bought and not had the time to paint them. So I made this thread so I can put all my holiday painting in one place. I mostly like how my miniatures look when painted but once I take a picture of them they don't look as good in the picture as I think they do in real life. It shows up all the imperfections and shoddy paint work :-) I did have a couple of things started but not finished so I finished those up first and here they are: The first thing is the Troll King from the Hobbit game: Here is my set of red zombies, which I painted in the same way as my earlier LNoE zombies: Next on my list are the Grave Weapon Zombies. I'm hoping to have all those done by Tuesday. RE: My Holiday Painting Project - friskers96 - 03-30-2013 04:47 AM SAAAWWEEEETTTT!!! They look great! RE: My Holiday Painting Project - SirTommyKittens - 04-01-2013 05:21 PM Those are amazing! The Goblin King is awesome. Re: My Holiday Painting Project - zachmaio - 04-01-2013 05:47 PM That goblin king looks really good! Keep up the good work. Look forward to sewing the rest of your stuff these next two weeks RE: My Holiday Painting Project - samuraitrev - 04-02-2013 01:57 AM The Zombies are pretty good. The Goblin King is on another level! RE: My Holiday Painting Project - Thraxas - 04-02-2013 11:25 PM Thanks everyone. I am particularly pleased with the Goblin King and I don't think I've ever spent so long painting any other miniature. Games Workshop miniatures are hugely overpriced, particularly here in Australia, but they do make some nice miniatures. I haven't got as much painting done as I would have liked, even on holiday things crop up but I did make a start and here's what I have to show for now: I tried a different colour scheme for the zombie flesh on these ones, I'm not sure I like it, but I will stick with it across the whole set of grave weapon zombies. It does at the very least provide some variety. RE: My Holiday Painting Project - samuraitrev - 04-07-2013 01:12 PM I like the skin tones on both types of Zombie. I've enjoyed checking out your latest work and I know how time consuming it is. The results were worth it though! Thanks for sharing your painting project. A well earned +1 Rep
