twjolson Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 When I saw this mini in the store, I had to just chuckle, the whole concept of flinging worthless little goblins is a cut up. This took me about a month, maybe more to paint, with alot of breaks and downtimes. However, being a normally impatient painter, I really tried to push myself. So far, this is not only the biggest project I've done, but the best paint job and base as well. For once, I have a mini that I wouldn't be ashamed to put up on COMON. The base is hand made and took me almost as much time and effort as the mini's themselves. It's kind of a unit tray, but heavily modified and a whole lot more work. Here is the overall diarama, and I apologize for my lack of photo-fu.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordColdsteal Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 now this is one fun set up! Very good job here, expecially on the base. The leather on the wings looks good, as well as the wood. I'm suprised the goblin flyer doesn't have a bit of fear on his face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
:0) Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Ahem, it's a doomdiver. Pretty cool, but I agree, the base is a bit much. Also, don't be afraid to paint the sand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twjolson Posted July 26, 2005 Author Share Posted July 26, 2005 Also, don't be afraid to paint the sand. It doesn't show on the pictures, but the sand is drybrushed with Bleached Bone. It's the quickest and best looking recipe that I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Swiftblade Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 It's good to see the Doomdivers done justice. They have to be the epitome of goblins to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billr Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I love the latest versoin of the doomdiver. The concept is great and it's a fun sculpt. Plus Mr. Mallet snotling is my favorite snotling. Good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Flinging Goblins is fun... until your poor Ogre comes down with a nasty case of pitcher's elbow and has to be benched for half the season to recover his game...but I will digress as I often do. I like what you did with the grass and rocky clay terrain, but what really kicks it up is the flight-stem on the flyer. "Did I just hear one of 'em say 'Whee'?"
