Cool! I like the video presentation too.

Thanks very much! Yes, I'm enjoying painting in earth tones at the moment. It's my current phase.

Great concept and execution.

This is the guide I use to paint gems, although I use only 3 layers, then a gloss. I find it a really handy reference: painting gemstones *edited to correct link*

I think I need to build her a dancing hut!

Wow, that's just too good!

Redambrosia, the gem is painted. Thanks for the feedback!

Originally by Grenadier (?) and now by Mega Miniatures.

Thanks for the comments and feedback. It was a fun mini to paint with all the little details.

Good point gents! Thanks for the feedback also. I'll have a play around with the camera.

The best defense is a good offense! Good opportunity to muck around with the belt gems.

Ogre Chieftain in metal. I really like this mini, the club is a classic! Got to fit a little bit of gem work into this one too.

Here's another Red Box Games mini that I picked up back in 2008. I finished it over the weekend along with a few more to come.

Man, that's a great paint job and a great mini. I also like the base work, nicely done.

This one is the metal one from a few years back. I will post it over there, good idea!

Finished this one off on the weekend:

From the classic 2000AD comic series; Sláine. This one is a Foundry miniature.

The white fur doesn't look too bad and contrasts with the smooth coat on the robe. Well done on these, they look like they were fun to paint. Well suited to the black-lining too.

Thanks guys, much appreciated!

My fave is Nualia but they are all great! Thanks for sharing.

That white is a craft paint?? Well done!

I like to think of them as furry, evil dog men. Sort of like a dog-like halfling.

Here's another one that I finished off last week. My first attempt at freehand shield work. It's a bit crappy but it will do!

Thanks! Painted and then I put some gloss varnish on it to give it a bit more of a shine.
