BunnyPuncher Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Well, We did our first paint n' take session down in these parts yesterday (or "up" in these parts for most of you!) at Allgoods Comics & Curiosities in Halifax Nova Scotia, Canada. For most of these kids this was the first time they had ever painted anything other than WH40K plastics and I (and they) were impressed by the differences in detail. I dug deep into the massive unpainted pewter pile I have and brought them a wide selection of minis to paint. However, being 10 - 13 year old boys they inevitably ignored the lovely elves and went straight for the big uglies... This one is from Andrew, and is the second mini this young fellow has painted... he's got some natural talent... This was done by Joseph, who has only been painting for two months (and only on the weekends!)... This one is from Allan, who has been painting for just over a month and is already a solid tabletop quality painter. Very interested in the craft and does his own online research to improve his skills... And finally we have the big bad ork dex - he of the creative basing and vivd imagination. There was also one of the elders along for the paint n' take but he really took his time on T'kay (and it looks great!) and was not ready for the photo shoot. Fun was had, a few converts in the making, and I got rid of some stuff I would never have painted! Cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
