Darklord Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Nathan/Eric - hope this is ok to put up here? Over at wamp we are going to be running a group tutorial with Ritual, so i thought i would post here for anyone that may be interested in participating: Ritual (Anders Eklund) is one of Wyrd's studio painters and a gold medal winner at World Expo so its a great chance to learn from a top painter This is the first of what i hope will be many 'paint along' tutorials. Many of you wanted a group project to work through together so i have taken that concept a little further. So heres how it works: Anders had kindly agreed to lead this process. He will paint up parts of the mini and show us how he did - you can then go and repeat the process on your own copy of that mini. Then there will be another step and so on. As everyone is doing the same mini with the same process it gives us a great opportunity to see how we are doing and where we may be going wrong. The mini Anders has chosen is Sebastian , the morgue assistant from Wyrd miniatures Anders actually painted the studio version you see before you. So if you want to take part you will need a copy of Sebastian all cleaned and ready to go. We will be giving some time for you to order and get these but if you intend working along then let us know. The more people the better Let me just point out that I intend to paint the second version quite differently than the one you see above. Thus, you will get two sources of inspiration, although just one where you'll get step-by-step guidance. If anyone wishes to do something differently, I will try my best to give what guidance I can anyway. The second version will have regular metallics instead of NMM, but my metallics technique is in many ways very similar to how you'd paint NMM, so you can follow the same basic procedures using non-metallic paints. Ritual To participate just goto: http://wamp-forum.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=33417#33417 you need to be a wamp member but its free to join Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talishko Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 This sounds great fun! Also very good choice for the jam, nice plain surfaces and some not too complex details. And a great opportunity to finally have a well painted mini in my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Anger Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Great idea... I would love to participate... It would be a great way to learn new techniques by following Anders' examples and trying them out... When were you planning to start? I already have Sebastian, I just need to assemble and base him.

Darklord Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 probably 2-3 weeks - gives people time to give Nathan money!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetang22 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Should be interesting. I won't participate this time around because I don't have Sebastian, nor do I plan to get him. Ritual is one of my favorite miniature painters though, so it will be fun to get insight into his techniques. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Anger Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I am still interested... I will go sign up on the WAMP forums... I assume you are holding the classes online there... Hopefully I will be able to find the time to keep up with this... I have been meaning to paint him, this will hopefully help motivate me.
