tatsu Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 First mini painted not too long ago. Around two months ago. Since then, I'd like to say I've improved, but I no longer have usage of my camera so I can't get anyone to see them and give feedback. =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaphod Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 Sweet! I wish more folks were that honest! HAHA! That is what I remember too... I guess times have changed a lot too. Internet... basing, actual sculpts. No more enamels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deep_sashelas Posted November 6, 2004 Author Share Posted November 6, 2004 Hee, I think it really depends on when you first started...'70s, '80s, '90's, or '00's. There's really a lot more info on the 'net about mini painting now, thanks to all these great tutorial sites put up by those who probably learned the hard way. So the newer folks are benefitting from the leg up, which is great and the reason for the tutorial sites in the first place. Great pics, all, and keep them coming.

Kurgan the Lurker Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 This is circa 1987-88, whenever 2nd edition Blood Bowl first came on the scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Posted November 6, 2004 Share Posted November 6, 2004 The first two are GW Waywatcher elves. The third one is a copper mini my bro found in a 25 cent vending machine!

Artists Wren Posted November 7, 2004 Artists Share Posted November 7, 2004 Here's my first, painted late August 2003, from the LTP #1. Like some others in the thread, I had done some reading on the Internet before I got started, as well as reading and attempting to follow some of the stuff from LTP #2. I'm still actually pretty happy with the leather parts and the beat-up look of the shield. I get a kick out of his super pasty complexion and angry eyes.

ThePolo Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I guess times have changed a lot too. Internet... basing, actual sculpts. No more enamels Ahhh... time's have indeed changed... I think that if it weren't for the wealth of info on the internet, I'd probably had fallen off with the hobby a few years ago. I'd say there was a good 10 year lul where my painting was extrememly minimal... Oh and the enamals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twjolson Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 I'm pretty sure this is, if not the first mini ever for me The Polo, no offense, but your original work before the repaint; he looks like he got beat with an ugly stick. But no worries, mine do too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flit Posted November 7, 2004 Share Posted November 7, 2004 Not sure this guy is my first first, but he is among the very first 3-6 minis I ever painted. He is an old Ral Partha Wind Lord. Painted in '89 with enamel paints. I had read one Dragon Magazine article about painting that introduced me to the concept of dry brushing before painting him.
