Gargs Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 7 hours ago, TaleSpinner said: February 5: What was the most difficult technique you have ever attempted on a mini and how did it turn out? Noob Alert! So, as far as technique, I don't think its a technique so much as merely something I tried. For me, the most difficult thing I've tried was to do a windscreen on a motorcycle. Results can be found here. While it was far from perfect, I think it was pretty decent for a first attempt. As far as an actual "technique" goes, two brush blending is probably the toughest thing I've tried and I've had mixed success with it. Tend to do ok with the shades, not so much with the highlights, but am working on it. :) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyes are probably what annoys me the most but I am improving on them. Most difficult was translucent fabric on a dress. I'm happy how it turned out although I know she won't win any awards around here. Lots of room for improvement. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For pro I follow my (formerly) local MLB team. There's no NFL team within a 3 hour drive so I don't even worry about it. For college I watch a lot of football and men's basketball, though not so much this year. My team has been bad to mediocre these last few years but I still enjoy college sports. 9 hours ago, TaleSpinner said: February 5: What was the most difficult technique you have ever attempted on a mini and how did it turn out? Freehand I guess. It turned out pretty well. I can't recall trying OSL so I'll assume I haven't gotten around to it yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator TaleSpinner Posted February 6, 2018 Author Moderator Share Posted February 6, 2018 12 minutes ago, TaleSpinner said: February 6: What are your favorite dragons? All Time: Smaug, the quintessential dragon and the one that brought me into this world of fantasy in the first place. Book: Ruth from the Dragon Riders of Pern series Movie: Smaug was probably one of the best done movie dragons yet. Miniature: This has changed many times over the years, mostly as SG an JG have continually outdone themselves. The current leader though is BlackSting the Wyvern by Julie G. I know it is technically not a dragon, but it is draconic. The composition in this piece astounds me. I absolutely love it. Spoiler Game System: I have always really liked the D&D Bronze Dragon, this version in particular: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Time: Book: Movie: Miniature: Game System: I have a real dislike for Dragons in all forms. It's a dislike that rivals snow, Winter, & miniature busts. It approaches my abhorrence to a certain politico. The only dragon like critter I like is the Jabberwocky. He/she/ whatever is possessed of a wonderful silliness that lampoons his more serious brethren. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book: Errol in the Discworld novels Miniature.: Gauth in the new core set will be my first. P.S. when I first typed this auto-correct altered "Gauth in core set" to "Gauth in corset". That might be an interesting conversion... Edited February 6, 2018 by paintybeard 3 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
