  1. nice work. the base came out stunningly well.
  2. I've painted the last wing dozens of time with lots of different patterns,... but I keep coming back to just plain white. So,.. I'm just gonna go with it. As such,.... Hatchling Angel,... complete!!! (I'll try to get a better pic later)
  3. *swings in*,.... hrmm,.. mighty quiet again,...
  4. as per photographing your minis,... simply using the "macro" function can do wonders for the focus. And maybe set your iso speed down around 100 or so to start. You can adjust later if necessary Other then that, a single piece of paper that the model sits on, and "rounds up into the backdrop", will help eliminate that "background edge" in the image. And you don't need a tent, so much as at least 2 lights. One from about 45 degrees left, and one from about 45 degrees right,.. and a bit overhead. These help to cancel each others "shadows" out. A third light can be done usually from center-overhead-ish,.. (and this light usually has a diffuser of some type to soften the light even more, but that's a bit more advanced) Not that I'm a photo genius or anything. But I've been through this process, and thought the info might help.
  5. Got the mechanical wing on. Just the feather wing to go, and then it'll finally be complete,...
  6. The leg bits and such are a dark teal type of color. I decided to keep the brown hair, and even managed to get 1 wing attached. Just need to do the other wing, and then I'm done!!!
  7. I read it that way too,... lol. But I guess it isn't that far fetched,.. seriously, you guys should ask him about the bonnet someday,..
  8. everyone makes me feel like a chump,...
  9. Latest update,.. I've finally got the last leg attached and managed to get it mounted to the base. (see,.. I told you the egg thing would start to make sense later ) There's still a bit of touch up on the egg shell that needs done. So then, my current question is about the hair. I like the brown well enough,.. but I'm wondering if black wouldn't look better. Thoughts? (next up,... wings)
  10. At least you reach "cool" eventually,... meanwhile I'm over here hoping for mediocre,...
  11. got the arms added,.. now I just have to work on that seam line in the flesh arm. After that, attach the other leg then mount to the base. (more crappy photos,.. of course)
  12. have 'em all standing on a giant old west coin??
  13. Only critique,... the cuffs (just below the wrist area) seems a bit "flat",.... not sure if there's a way to shadow that in and give it some depth
  14. working on the cyborg-bits. It's coming along,.. albeit a bit slowly. Not getting much time to paint these days.
  15. anyhow guys,.. tis bedtime once more. G'night all
  16. and the place you live is completely land-locked,...
  17. the ability to become invisible,.. but only when no one is looking??
  18. weird watching it afterwards. it's kinda like hearing your own voice on the answering machine,.. you know it's you,.. but it's not,..
  19. oh,.. and tutorial is up if you guys didn't catch it yet,...
