Warlady Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I really like the Earth Elemental - a very original take on an old standard. The grass on him makes him look like he just came right up out of the ground! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn350 Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share Posted August 7, 2009 Yea one of my more favorite things I have painted this week. I wanted that exact feel I also just didn't like how the arms attached to the out of the blister model so I chopped off the balls they go on and did it a bit different. The dust devil is eh but I am not gonna waste time redoing that one it will serve the purpose. (lots of trouble of a unsuspecting group of adventures) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator TaleSpinner Posted August 7, 2009 Moderator Share Posted August 7, 2009 I love the earth elemental. Could you please share how you did the grass, particularily how you go it to be green shorter grass and beige longer grass. That looks so real and is an efect I've been wanting.

Darius Glenwell Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Have to agree with everyone else. That Earth Elemental is Ssschhwweet! I've got 2 of the old school EE's ready to paint. Might have to swipe the grass idea from you! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beowulfthehunter Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 i know people are raving about the Earth Elemental, but I am more impressed by the Dust Devil. Great work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigern Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Excellent paint jobs on both. Who makes these miniatures, by the way? That earth elemental is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigern Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Excellent paint jobs on both. Who makes these miniatures, by the way? That earth elemental is great. Actually I answered my own question. I see this IS a Reaper mini (I looked it up on the Figure Finder). I just hadn't noticed it in my copy of Casket Works. Great work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
