Unreff F'ined - the base

For a long time, I have made myself known for writing my city's wargamer event, HÉT's (Hadvezérek És Taktikák - Warlords And Tactics) Warhammer 40000 contest's sick background story, and its main character, the psychopath, sociopath and idiopath (I know, that is not a word - sue me :P) chaos lord, Unreff F'ined. Well, after a long time of promising, it was about time for his meanness to get his own miniature. Good work needs time, slow work needs even more, so I'll put up the result in pieces. I hope the base makes it for your level.

I worked a bit on the little fella's brows - I hope it's obvious how does he feel about the boss.

And since we're talking about Unreff, there is an important part that is not to be missed:

The sign says: TREASURE!!!

To be continued. Be bad, see you next time!

Mage Hunter - take 2

I missed monday's post. Things like that happens, and will happen.

I've done some painting in the meantime, Warmachine again, a Retribution Mage Hunter. There are fewer picture, only about the results, with a less tutorial-like tone. I tried to do a colour fading in the hair (red to magenta) tell me down below how do you like it.

The quality of the pictures have already been bought to my notice, the next step will be the making of a semi-pro miniature-photoshooting box.

Questions can be asked down below, have a nice looking around, and see you next time!

Mage Hunter

I did some painting in the past days and I tried to document it as much as I can. Well, it wasn't an easy procedure, because my precision brush took this "style" permanently after I finished putting on the base colours:

But of course I didn't begin this blog as my personal complaint office, so let's see the miniature, by name: a Mage Hunter. Full designation: Privateer Press -> Warmachine -> Retribution of Scyrah -> Mage Hunter Strike Force -> grunt2. I would like the colours to came out clearly, so I basecoated with white.

I wouldn't add too much to the colours, I use ancient Citadel paints, none of them can be found in their current name, and everyone will find something similar but cheaper. If somebody wants to know anyway, ask in comment.

The next step was the shading, I used strongly watered dark brow for every cloth and wooden surfaces, and a moderately dark flesh for the skin.

After that (with watered paint) I made highlight on the cape and the edges of the clothes. The boots and gloves too got their final colour.

Next, the few plated areas got their colour, by using the green used as the base, mixed by different amounts with metallic paint.

 After that I finalized the skin, hair and eye colour.

 Then I highlighted the metallic parts, the brown ones with gold, the sword with silver. Also, the blade's upper part got a slight turqouise fade.

Finally, I marked the front arc on the base, and the crossbow gained a lighter wood grain (I know, it turned out quite shitty, but I'd like to repeat the state of my brush)

Some fine tuning on the base, brown synthetic turf, and it's considered done for now.

If you have something to add, you can do it down below. See you next time!
