DangerousBeans Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Sorry about the shoddy pic.......... Few touch ups to do here and there and I think the grass is a bit green, looks like spring's coming! I'll drybrush it white at some point but I'm eager to get onto Zoriada and all her swampy goodness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Math Mathonwy Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Oh wow, really liking what I see here! Extremely nice! Love the fact that your ice golem and gamins are similar colours but painted differently so that the Gamin look organic while the Golem looks like it's made out of ice. All in all I adore that golem - very, very good, has a sort of SENMM vibe to it. And Rasputina then. Very nice whites and blacks. The skin, the darklining, everything is spot on from painting style to colour choice. Any close-ups in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerousBeans Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I'll get some close ups done when I've painted a few more models, my dad's a photographer so if I take it all to his house I can get access to all kinds of wonderful things! I'm really happy with the Golem, especially because I completely winged it! The photo's quite complementary to Rasputina, she's a bit messy close up! Need to smooth out the white and I'm thinking about painting her stockings/waist scarf thing in a similar blue to the beasties to tie them together a bit better, although she works better all-white than I anticipated. Thanks for the nice comments, always handy to keep the old painting-bug going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Anger Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Very nice!!! Post some closer individual pics if you get a chance... I am surprised that AoM hasn't commented on these yet with his unhealthy love of Rasputina!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silmarilias Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Looking good there DB , if you are trying to hide some minor mistakes try thinning your paint a bit more when layering and use a couple of thin glazes of your base colours to smooth things out a bit .

AoM Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I'm eager to get onto Zoriada and all her swampy goodness. Must be good. Must not take out of context. Very nice!!! Post some closer individual pics if you get a chance... I am surprised that AoM hasn't commented on these yet with his unhealthy love of Rasputina!!! Geez, Steve! Let a guy get to work in the morning. Great work there, DB. I'm waiting for individual pics. I've got plans for my Golem when I get him eventually, but I'm trying to hold off on buying the CoD starter until I know how well I'm getting paid from my Gen Con classes.

Peterdita Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Very cool. Great looking crew there. I'm almost done with my golem, looks just like yours, lol! Great job on the crew, they look ready for some bone chilling action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkdymnd Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Nice work on those. The colors are spectacular Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerousBeans Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Nice work on those. The colors are spectacular Thanks! I owe it all to GW's amazing washes! In fact the only colours I used on the golem were Asurmen Blue (plus varying amounts of water) and white. Actually, screw GW, I owe it all to my amazing skill and talent!

And I look forward to freezing your Guild while my Gamin run up behind and tie their shoelaces together. Yeah. BRING IT! edit: I just noticed my "Board Rank" or whatever it's called just went from "Odd" to "Strange"! It's a proud day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerousBeans Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Ok, here's some super shoddy close ups. Ruins the illusion a bit don't it! lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mechaace Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 It's alright mate, the illusion would be ruined when you bring them to the club and they get trounced. Only joking, they're looking pretty nifty. I'm sure the white I'm doing right now won't turn out half as good as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadDokRox Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Just ordered the Decemberists Beans. Out of curiosity - how long did it take you to paint them? And what colours? I'm thinking GW's Ice Blue with some blue washes would probably be good - just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking GW's Ice Blue with some blue washes would probably be good - just curious. I painted the Golem and Gamin in a night, took a bit more time on Rasputina. She needs some smoothing out (bloody white) which I keep meaning to do but I keep buying more models! Going to attempt a snow sabertooth tonight if I get the chance. edit: also, thanks everyone!
