Year in review, 2016 Edition - Very picture heavy

[Lt. Coldfire]

It's safe to say I had an amazing year.  I learned so much in 2016 and hopefully I can learn more in 2017 and continue to improve.  These pictures are in no particular order.

 

Edit:  Oops, I just noticed that 11 of the first 18 minis I actually painted this year, in January.  This is why I should have put this post together sooner.  Oh well.  Less those minis, the rest I painted in 2016.

Nice progress... It would have been fun to put them in order so we can see your progression over the year.

First of all those are lovely, and done quickly 11 in January? at high quality. 

I noticed that alot of the figures were done multiple times with different color schemes,

even with similar , but not identical free hand. 

a wizard with a starry cloak, and cleric with a tree stood out. 

 

why the multiple variations on some?

Wow, you did a lot of lovely work this year.

 

It would have been nice to see them in order, but this is impressive too. I'm also interested in the stories behind the color variation duplicates.

You had a very successful year. The Rackham models really jump out at me. There style must fit your painting asthetic very well.

I keep coming back to look at them more. Mantis warrior! Glowy wizards! So many pretties!

[Pochi]

Wow! That is a lot of minis! Nice work. Lots of freehand!

[Glitterwolf]

Amazing!

 

I love them all, one of my favorites is that little demoness/imp on the stoneworks.

 

Great work!

 

Question, how did you compile all these pics together like that?

[Metalchaos]

Congrats on that amazingly productive year, they look fabulous all together.

Agreed, but the way I saved them on my computer was by miniature company.  I think this year I'll number them so that I can see how I progressed.

I sell many of these.

I used a free online site that makes photo collages for you.  There's quite a few websites.

I really like the designs that you painted on the cloaks, also the lighting from the mage staves is awesome!

I love these posts.  It is really informative to see a collection of someones work all in one place.  Helps solidify their sense of style.

 

I don't have a sense of style yet -  My wife will tell you i have no sense and my children will tell you i have no style, so perhaps it is hopeless ;)

 

If and when i do get a cohesive style, i would be very happy if it were anywhere close to this beautiful!

[Chaoswolf]

Very impressive!!

[chaoshead]

Slightly prolific in your painting there sir?

 

Good job.

 

No, GREAT job.
