Digital M@ Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Well, this is the fastest I have ever knocked out a mini. Starting from primed I had him painted, based and seal coated in just under 3 1/2 hours. This is an incredably fun miniature to paint because of all the details. The only frustrating part was the head because I dont think the details are defined enough. It was difficult to tell what what what. Let me know what you think and how I can improve. One thing I would change is I would add a purplish pink on the skin around the moles to help better define them and make them a bit more gross. This os one of my better pictures and I am only using one lamp because my other one is broken, I have not changed my F numbers or any other settings, I don't get it? The highlights are not showing that great, but it is nice and crisp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFallen Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Wow... not really sure what else to say. I really like the detail in the muscle strands. The color sceme is quite impressive also. Excellent job mate. Fallen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thing doesn't need to be more gross. It's really disturbing. You got creative with the colors, and it's very effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwyksilver Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 That's just a gross sculpt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital M@ Posted October 31, 2004 Author Share Posted October 31, 2004 I want to buy the other two versions of this sculpt and turn the whole lot of em against my players. I envision them coming from a world with a lot more Chaos than law like there is on earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwyksilver Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Very thankful I am not one of your players. I think I'd freak seeing one of those show up on my table, let alone a trio, or more. I'm still having a hard time figuring out how these are tigers. <shudder> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice muscles, though fleshy red- purple muscles would look even better than the creamy orange colour. I like head armour too, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mourningcloud Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I have considered using those as beefy Hounds of Tindalos. and just remember kids, if you step in a mound of tindalos, chances are good that your about to meet a hound of tindalos although it is debatable which is worse. so maybe i'll go paint some mounds....

Lady Tam Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Very nice, brought back memories of A&P and our cat. Good coloration of the muscles and such. LT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Errex Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 That beast is impressive, M@t. The orangy flesh goes really well with the purples, and the textures are extremely well rendered. The turquoise boils on it's back are maybe the only parts that don't quite mesh with the rest, but truly, this is one great paintjob.

Cade Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 That is a very impressive paint job. Great job on the color graduation. Personally, I think there are too many colors. With tan, red, purple/blue, and turquoise, I think it gets a little busy. Maybe with one less color. That's just personal preference though. Great painting though.
