morganm Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Finally finished my kobolds. Will be using them in an up coming game. I have 30 hours of pure painting into them. To me that's a lot of time invested into painting a mini but I have to keep reminding myself I did 5 figures at once so it's more like 6 hours per figure. I'm happy with how the turned out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercius Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 They look great....nasty little buggers! I hate kobolds! Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferox Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Nice one! The details really stand out to me -- the green moss on the bases, the fire and the spectacles on the mage, and so on. I find that little things like those are easy to skip over or just go through the motions on at the end of a paint job, but they add tremendously to the overall look of the figure. Well done!

Darius Glenwell Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I see you decided to use metallic paints instead of NMM for the armor on a couple of them. Why the change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookjimjr Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Yep, they look like kobalds! Wow, they came out great. The bases and blending really add to the character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morganm Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Thanks everyone =^.^= I went metallics because I need to get better at blending and more practice before taking on NMMs. Plus I have somewhat of a deadline; I may need them at our next game night which is next week and I knew I wouldn't have much painting time this week. Needed to just get them done. Basically I wussed out =P There's one tiny example of NMMs =) The archer's spaulder has no metallic paint.
