tanker22 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Just got done the last of my Italians today and once again enjoyed painting them up. Will probably pick up some more in the future once I get some of my other projects finished. Standard table top quality stuff, no award winners here. Going to try some tanks and vehicles next I think. Stuff seems to sell good on ebay and pretty easy to paint up IMO. Thanks for looking, C and C wlcome. Have a good one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Versutus Vulpes Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I can't see their eyes !!!! Then hold your fire... Great stuff Tanker these must look great on the table. 72mm... 54mm... 15mm... Um - what's wrong with 28mm?!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilvish the Deliverer Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 72mm... 54mm... 15mm... Um - what's wrong with 28mm?!?!? Neither fish nor fowl, nor good read meat? They look great. I shudder to think about doing 15mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanker22 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 You know, I considered doing eyes on them but then I decided my own were more important. I dont even want to think about opening that can of worms, seeing eye dogs can't paint yet Thanks for the comments guys. Hey Josh- you forgot 1/7th, 1/12th, 120mm, 90mm and 80mm. Cant leave them out. 28mm is just to hard for me to do. Cant keep up with the really good painters and dont want to loose face A mans got to know his limitations As I said before, the 15mm is really pretty easy on minis like this. The dark brown wash makes all the detail on this size stand out and its just some re-highliting to bring it out even further. Same with the guns, black and brown washes over base color and some weathering. Quick and easy To bad my FLGS closed down. I think I could get into playing this stuff, All these guys are ebay bound though so I wont ever see them on the table. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerdrew Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 More great painting and detail - but so small! You should try 28-32mm - I know some of the painters on here are the Badgers Nadgers when it comes to 28mm, but that shouldn't put you off - hell, it doesn't stop me posting my efforts.

Enchantra Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 You know, I considered doing eyes on them but then I decided my own were more important. I happen to be in agreement with that statement. I'm blind enough with glasses, and when I do detail work on 25mm and 28mm and even 54mm I typically throw on the magnifying visor. I want to keep my eyes. I think wash filling in the eye sockets works fine enough on 15mm. To bad my FLGS closed down. I think I could get into playing this stuff, All these guys are ebay bound though so I wont ever see them on the table. I'm in agreement there. The closest good supply of minis is 30 minutes by car, there are two closer places but their mini selection isn't all that great. I end up resorting to going online for anything I know I cannot find locally. Though between the two Rcons I've been too, I have enough pewter to paint up to last me a while. I like the basing you did on these. I'm assuming some kind of sand like paste that you painted over after application? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
