progress report - the first C-Dwarf:


I have struggled with the skin (to much blue, then to little, to dark, to light...) and the white on the helmet quite a bit. I dont like my metal on the shoulderpads with spikes. The base and the feet are just basecoated. C&C on improvments are more than welcome.

for shoulder pads, i just use mythril mixed with scorched brown and a bit of black and then i do the highlights (edges) with mytril.

I love your hobgob conversions, and like the color scheme you've chosen.

However, I wonder if there is not enough contrast between the white on the helmet and the gray skin tone? I like how you brought out the individual teeth, and you did a great job on the "tusks". Keep us posted!

I like the purple and white scheme, but the thing for me is the skin colour. Its just a bit washed out (at least on the photos), making the whole figure look a bit bland, and I think although the purple is strong, the white is a quiet colour in itself, so needs support from the skin tone/colour. Does that make any sense? I think the beer from last night is still keeping me company!

BTW, your nurgle team is awesome.

I like the purple and white, but you might get more out of the mini by using bronze/gold on the shoulder pads. That would make them stand out more in contrast to the skin.

I like this idea.

I think the golden shoulderpads did the trick.

At last. Just the varnish left. This team took 6 months to get done. phew. Now a little rest and then some skaven, me thinks.

Great work! Love the checker pattern on the hobgoblins

Thank you.
As always are the lightning kind of bad so the miniatures look worse on picture then in real life, but I could not make myself do a proper lightbox before the photo set. I just wanted to have it done as quickly as possible.
