I did also paint the Arcanacon mascot, so probably 2 to3 hours on puppets Nurse Rotten Belle WIP of the Executioner WIP of The convict gunslinger as well. He needs the green hair.

themurphyfella Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Yea I've been looking at your puppets and Rattys and getting depressed so I figured I'd better get off my ass and paint something. Some of the detail is really tough to pick out I've been thinking that the seams and stiches might be easier to outline with a pinhead oil wash. But that is probably just the Halloween sugar rush talking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themurphyfella Posted November 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 There is some really nice detail on the figures that you can see once you get them sprayed Link to all the pics I took WIP and so on https://picasaweb.google.com/themurphyfella/Puppetwar?authuser=0&feat=directlink Initially I had a plan to paint certain groups of models together. I ditched that for the much more fun approach of painting whichever model I felt like doing at the time. Mainly because painting these is not like painting an army where you have a set colour scheme and you are doing a number of similar models. Every one of these models has their own paint scheme and production line painting really falls flat when there is very little common colour on figures. That being said I tend to work in very small batches of 2-3 models so I'm not sitting waiting for washes to dry So on with the pretty pictures. Completed so far Nurse Executioner Convict Gunslinger Rotten Belle Some WIP Bad Ju Ju - needs the green area's and face finished up Sluurid - just got the base coat on Guild Austringer - only just started Have to say I'm having a lot of fun with these figures now that I've got a few done . More to come over the next few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tauwolf Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Wow, those look great! Keep up the excellent work. I think you just inspired me to get some work done.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themurphyfella Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Well Brian, Considering how kick ass your seamus is that makes me a happy puppetmaster. Just don't revert to GW 80's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themurphyfella Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Long quiet period on painting due to real life being a beach But I got a few hours last night to go mess around. I had started the sorrows so I grabbed the other mask puppets I had handy and did them in a green and purple paint scheme. Didn't get any 100% finished but I'm pretty happy with getting back to painting again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
