Well, what can I say to sum up on this article...exactly this...

This is what an article should look like, clearly defined with step-by-step pictures and of course, an awesome finished piece !!!

You make me drool Tim, absolutely stunning work as usual !

You take a bog standard piece of plastic miniature and turn it into so much more...this is exactly what the community needs to learn the skills to create a stunning piece of art !

I bow to you sir...flipping fantastic !!!

Wonderful Article. I followed the Painting School closely as inspiration for my Riders of Rohan.

Absolutely amazing! :shock:

Every now and then I feel guilty that I spent so much money on models that are destined to spend the rest of my life still in their packaging. I feel I really should paint something, anything, to avoid it being a waste. Then I see work like this and take solace in the fact that it was never really a hobby for me. It's best left to those with ability like yours. This is truly fantastic!

Thanks every one so much for all your kind comments. As I mentioned before adding to the growth of the site is always a pleasure and hopefully it won't be too long before the next article. I will be making a start on the mini concerned very soon.

Nice to see all the steps of the O-R Painting School project in one place. The article is excellent - very precise descriptions combined with fantastic pictures.

Can anyone ask for more?

Congrats, Tim and thanks for submitting it!

which reminds me that I still have to finish my RoR that I started a while ago, following the Painting School :wink:

Excellent contribution. Well done. Lovely painting - on a plastic figure too! It looks stunning.
I'll certainly read any more articles that you write.
Thanks.
