airsoftlover Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 i found this old grenadier mini on ebay and fell in love with it! little did i know it's actually a real demon in greek and christian beliefs... i am pretty sure at least. i spent extra time on this one and put more detail into it than i usually do. the detail on the heads in the photo sucks because of the crappy lighting i chose, it looks better in person. i am pretty proud of this and i think it's my best one yet, and i know it still sucks big time compared to most of the minis on this forum! i wanted it to look like like an inland taipan, i think that's the snake i'm thinking of. red belly with yellow highlights, and more highlights on the yellow. the back is gloss black, with silver metallic in the center and black metallic around that, making an interesting glowing color that i really like. the eyes are green with yellow highlights, and finally a white pupil. the skull and horn have better contrast in real life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haldir Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Funky!! I like the colors you used. The green in the eyes is a nice contrast to the scales & such. Nice work RM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airsoftlover Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 thank you! i thought since it was a metallic glossy black, i needed to spruce it up with bright colors everywhere else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercius Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Really love the colors. I think this guy flipped me off on the freeway the other day though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshuaslater Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 You should be proud of this painting. The paiting is solid, I like the blends, and the photo is fine. If you spend enough time looking at minis painted on forums, you can see good paint even in terrible photos. Your photo ain't terrible.
