It's been almost 10 years since I picked up a brush for the first time and to celebrate I repainted my very first sculpt/conversion.  My NMM are getting better, but cloth continues to be my kryptonite.  Also, I'm not sure how to get rid of the cross-eyed effect?  Maybe the pupil is too tall?

HA that is amazing! Well done!  It's amazing you tried tackling such a project so early on in the first place!

Thank you.  I'd been painting for about a month.  They held a local convention and I knew my painting wasn't good enough to win, so I had to have a gimmick.  I had to figure out how to design it and how to work with brown-stuff, but after a few days I was dry brushing like a fiend.  It worked, I won.  Of course, there was only a handful of entries, but still.  ::D:

      Fly Demon (77259)
      By MoonglowMinis
      Hi everyone.  Got a couple more demons for you today.  This is a pair of Bones Fly Demons for use as Chasme in D&D.  These guys could also serve double duty as Giant Flies for Rangers of Shadow Deep.

      Feel free to check out more of my demons and devils in my Blood War project HERE.

      If anyone has any leads on other interesting giant fly minis please share them, as I've been finding it difficult to find good models for RoSD.

      Also, how do you paint insect wings?  They're such a unique feature in the animal kingdom and I'd love to see how you go about it?

      BEHOLD(er) One Year's Improvement (WizKids)
      By MoonglowMinis
      Hi all!  With the year nearly at its end, this seemed like a great time to share a comparison project to reflect on this past year's growth.

      A little over a year ago a painted up my first Beholder, and last month I painted another.  I was particularly proud of the first so it's interesting to see a side-by-side a year apart.

      It's always fun to compare two similar models that have been painted with time in between.  I'm always impressed by how much I can grow in this hobby in such a short amount of time.  I only painted my first skeleton a little over two years ago.  My confidence in layering has improved and it is now my go-to method of painting.  Drybrushing and Washes are now reserved for specific effects and textures.  My speed has increased, and I feel more comfortable adding freehanded details.

      I'm proud of the growth I've had this past year and look forward to the improvements next year brings.  And these guys will be looking forward as well.  And backwards.  And sideways.  Always watching.
       
      How have you improved this year?

      Beholder (3D print MZ4250)
      By vulture
      Continuing my posting spree. This beholder is the fist model I have printed and painted. I went for a very simple,  classic look, and I was really pleased with the bright purples. I have been enjoying MZ's catalog, but man, printing stuff is a lot of work.
       
      I really enjoy painting eyes, so this subject was a treat.The Spectator is now on my shortlist to paint thanks to the positive experience I had with the dodgeball of doom.
