77248: Large Crate

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

So in the Resolutionary Painting thread, Zeke challenged us to paint a mini using finger painting.  ChaosWolf asked to be allowed to use a brush to prime the mini and and his request was granted.  However, being the hardcore individual that I am, I refuse this allowance that smacks of weakness.

 

First, the area prepped for battle:

 

Brown Liner priming:

 

Russet Brown Base coat in progress:

 

Harvest Brown Highlight:

 

Final Highlight of Leather Brown and finished mini:

 

Thanks to Zeke for the challenge.  Though it may have been hubris on my part to partake in the challenge the day before I start my new job.  Not sure if I'll be able to get all the paint off my hands.

Wow, that actually turned out really good! 

 

Of course the contrarian in me wants to challenge you to paint a humanoid that way now. 

 

ETA:  Oh and acrylics will come off your hands with enough hot water and soap, especially if you have an oil based soap or Lava.

Well, you could.  I already have a suitable humanoid in mind.

I know, right?! That's unfair, that is! My crates never turn out that nice! But I might steal this idea and try to do one or two the same way just for the sake of the challenge.

Well then, it's on.

 

Caryatid Columns soon to occur!

My favorite part of this is the huge grin on your face. :-D The crate turned out really well!

[malefactus]

That is an OUTSTANDING crate...the wood effect really is BEAUTIFUL. Considering the subject VERY WELL DONE!

[Glitterwolf]

Cool!

[Dilvish the Deliverer]

So the interesting thing is that I think the crate looks better in the picture than in hand.  It has to happen occasionally right?

 

Also, column challenge may be delayed due to me already having painted the sets I have on hand.  I'll have to go to the FLGS after the impending snowstorm to see if they have any more.

[Chaoswolf]

Weakness?!? Why, I oughta....

 

 

 

Nice job!

[ub3r_n3rd]

HAHAH, fantastic!

[haldir]

Nice! Now I wanna see a Werner Klocke mini in this technique!

[VolksFest]

Lol! Great execution! 

[NomadZeke]

This makes me smile.
