Chucklemonkey Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Really nice work. I love the specialist and the Gunslinger - who I don't normally like - but in truth all are very impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Alleycat Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Ratty,in the tradition of the Ancients who ate the hearts of their opponents and thus gained their power,Im afraid I must do this to gain your painting ability *holds up a claw* Kali ma!... Kali ma!... Kali ma!, shakthi deh! Ok now that I have that silliness out of my system. Excellent painting job and wonderful bases. I would love to know where you got the bases for those as I dearly want to copy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elazar Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 These are looking great Ratty. The Freikorps are really nice sculpts. If I was nitpicking I'd say the red could maybe use an extra highlight on a few of the minis as the shading on the rest is from the top drawer but the red seems a bit flat in places in comparison. This is of course nitpicking. Or perhaps the photos. Red always seems to lose a bit when photographed. Either way though they're still fantastic and the Convict Gunslinger looks legendary!

K.blas Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Mr. Rat good job as usual. Though I must ask, do you aslways paint so dark? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Mr. Rat good job as usual. Though I must ask, do you aslways paint so dark? Not always. But I definitely have a preference for it. My Epic Eldar are reasonably bright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted February 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Made the bases for my Viks. I really like how the Sword Mistress one came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Er1k Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Love the Viktorias bases. Can't wait to see them all painted up. Keep up the good work mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoboStele Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Dude, your scratch-built bases make me sick. They are so awesome. I don't have enough imagination when I look at a random bit of plastic in order to think "Ooh, I could make a base with this!" Very jealous, and looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Absolution Black Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Base work: Fantastic! Freikorps: Phenomenal! Dark colour palette: The way to go! Well done Ratty, I love what you've done with them. I was considering red on the Freikorps myself but I think I'll go Black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
