WombatJ Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) UPDATE 3/2/12: Pics of painted mechanical doves at the 7th post.

Check out bigger pics at the site and let me know what you think! -WJ _____________________________________________________ Hey all, recently I posted in the miniature matters forum about starting up a Dreamer army for a Tale of Painters me and a couple buddies are doing on our site (Live to Crush). Basically we're trying to get a 35ss army painted in the next four months. Long story short, I'm switching to Colette (details on site). I'll post up some painted pics here when I get them done, but I just put together a handful of the minis yesterday. I mocked up a couple quick pics of the color scheme I'm thinking of using, and I was hoping people could take a look and tell me what they think. I think I'm going to take a stab at some small conversions on Kaeris. Mostly I just want to try green stuffing some fire and painting it OSL. I'm going to try to take pictures all through the process and put up a tutorial if it turns out reasonably well. Bigger pics of everything on the site. Let me know what you guys think! Thanks, -WJ Edited March 3, 2012 by WombatJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backno Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Good color selection but everything from your Showgirls box look a little flat. Might want to give them a wash of some sort and hit them with another highlight. Kaeris looks fantastic btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WombatJ Posted January 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Lol, not quite what I was going for. These were actually all just photoshopped, desaturated to grayscale then overlayed with color. I'm going to post up pics as I paint, but these were just to get an idea if the color scheme works. I'm glad you like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WombatJ Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 So I dropped the color scheme. I liked it a lot but then I came up with something I liked better. Here are some WIPs of my first Performer and Mannequin - A couple more pics and much bigger ones at the site. Let me know what you think!

Malandres Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 really like this colour scheme.....its different to the usual bright and gaudy colours you associate with a colette crew i likes it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WombatJ Posted February 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 Some finished pics of the two - More at the post and the gallery. Let me know what you think. I can get the pictures to focus, but this time around when I did that I was having a lot of problems with light balance, because of the dark background, I think. With the white background I was having trouble getting things to show up. So anyway, I'm trying to figure this camera out still.

WombatJ Posted March 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Hey guys, Got some more done for our next month of ToP. I did the 3 mechanical doves up in red black and ivory.
