No harm in that, especially when it looks that good! :wink:

Thanks :)

I think the main reason I've improved is because I've stuck myself to a schedule. After school, the first thing I do is paint. For approx. 1-2 hrs every day. So I spend a lot of time painting :)

Great work, Josh! I love the chips on the metal, it looks stunning. You're really becoming a very good painter. :)

No updates on Mr. Ugly Green Nob. I have been stricken with painter's block--if I pick up a brush for more than 10 minutes at a time, I can't stand it. I just couldn't bring myself to do the finicky details on the Nob. However, here's an Ork Boy I've managed to get some paint on over the past 2-3 days.

I'm hoping this is only temporary, because I'm expecting a whole lot more miniatures to sell in the mail today. :)

8) Looks good so far, but some of the recesses on the skin look too dark in comparison to the overall shade of the skin.

Thanks guys.

Corsair, if you're specifically only interested in the Marines from AOBR, I'm looking to trade them off in my trade thread. :)

If you mean his arms, on the arm with the slugga it's because I can't reach it and on the sword arm it's shadow. 8)

Hey Josh, when are we going to see more of the Imperial Guard Commissar?
He was looking really good last time you posted pics of him and I wondered if you'd got any further with him. :)

A major accident occured.

This happened the day before yesterday, btw.

I was in there working on my Cities of Death board--spraying some battle damage with black paint on my Shrine of the Aquila--when disaster struck.

My cat, who we shall call "Ray", came in through the door, which I had left open for ventilation purposes. Ray immediately jumped up and knocked over the glass jar I had full of Non-Acetone Nail Polish remover. This spilled all over the neglected side of my table, which had some old Rohirrim, a couple of primed Ork Boyz.....and my Commissar.

I immediately ran for some paper towels, and when I came back, I managed to mop the mess up. This took about 10 minutes or so--all the time it took to take the paint off of the bottom right half of the Commissar's trench coat, most of the fingers of his gun hand, and his nose. (Really)

So yes, I've learned 2 things: Keep cats away from hobby area and DON'T LEAVE NAIL POLISH REMOVER WHERE IT CAN BE KNOCKED OVER!

Ray just sat there the whole time staring at me.

:kitten:


So, I will probably completely strip the Commissar and start over in a couple of weeks. Right now I'm busy painting Gandalf the White & some Warg Riders to sell. But after that, I'll tackle my (very small) backlog. :D

I never knew before now how effective that Nail polish remover is. :roll:

What a shame! :o

I know how bad cats can be, I was taking pictures of some of Iron Guard for here on OR, and my cat Leo jumped up and began to chew on ones head! Yes, cat's are best kept away from the hobby... :shock:

Be sure to update with your progress on him. 8)

Cat+Hobby=Disaster.

A real shame to, the Commisar looked well painted.

My cat "Monaco" has been responsible for several 'accidents' over the last few years. The worst was when I saw she had something in her mouth, I then discovered it was a model tree which I had spent the last 3 hours carefully basing, painting and flocking. It was in such a mess I had to bin it. :sad:
