Dungeon Dwellers Diorama

[Metalchaos]

You're right about the shadows and highlight. I still have a lot to do. I will finalize the contrast after all the elements are in place.

So far, I didn't add any highlight on the wall behind the door, I may even have to add more shadows in some places.

In the meantime, I started dressing up the room. I painted a 03017, Charnel Grub last night and took some picture.

 

I added magnets in the wall and under the Crawler but they aren't strong enough. I will certainly have to glue the monster on the wall.

 

Thanks for sharing your toughts. Have a great Halloween.

Cool mini. Did you try it with a neodymium magnet? If that is not metal a 1cm diametre and 1mm thickness should work.

[Glitterwolf]

Awesome!

 

Alternatively, drill a little hole in the wall and insert a peg ( disguise it as a torch, or a metal spike) drill a hole in the monster's base and just hang it there when needed.

It's the metal version of the model 03017, Charnel Grub. I used two 4mm diameter neodymium magnet, two in the wall and two on the model, still it's not enough. I will try Glitterwolf's trick and disguise the pin as a metal bar coming out of the wall.

Thanks for the tip, I will try your ingenious idea.

 

I started to work the Beholder last week, Fooling around painting the jester Beholder. I made good progress already, painting the base color, shading, highlights, the eye detail on some osl. I will glaze the teeth and then work some more on the shadows and osl.

I love the eyes, great expression!

Thanks for you comment guys. I made some progress last week. Behold the stuff of nightmare.

 

 

The Weekend Warriors base color is also completed.

Great scene with the Eyebeast coming through the door!

 

Nice colours for the warriors so far.

[aku-chan]

Nice job on those shield designs.

[Peithetairos]

Indeed, great star trim and freehands. The beholder turned out well.

[Metalchaos]

Thanks for your encouragements everyone. Here's a quick update on last night progress. I simply added a layer of Citadel Seraphim Sepia shading ink.

I read somewhere that we should find ourselves a hobby and practice it a little every night and on weekends.

Speaking of Mr. Thimbletoe, I'm mostly done painting him. And I also managed to paint a crate and barrle I 3D printed.
