Webmonkey Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 I like the blue take on the gremlins. It something you don't see often. It shows that you think outside the box. Quote
Normski Posted January 16, 2013 Report Posted January 16, 2013 Blue Gremlins!! suweeeeeet!! different take on the norm pretty cool job!! Quote
Omenbringer Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 Simply lovely. Blue suits them well though I can't help but think of them as Militant Smurfs (thankfully you didn't go with white pants and hats). Really like your conversions and scratch builds they are particularly well done. Quote
Evilbleachman Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 You liar! YOUR REAL NAME IS BLUESTUFF GAV!!!! ADMIT ITTTTTTTT!!!! Nice shtuff, btw. Quote
edonil Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 Some great work there, really like those sculpts you did! Quote
Mako Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 Ooh, a sterling silver gremlin Colette? Shiny! Good stuff on all of that, some good sculpting and the blue skin sets off some nice painting too! Quote
Huang Da Wei Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 Gremlins in blue? you didnt think outside the box on that one. You painted one blue, left him inside a box and let them breed. Nice. Quote
FoeRender Posted January 17, 2013 Report Posted January 17, 2013 Nice gremlins , the blue is different . Quote
greenstuff_gav Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Posted February 2, 2013 forgot about this thread :-[ thanks guys just need to kick my locals into playing more now my LGS has closed may try Firestorm Games next week for Book 4 and some more gremlin stuffs Lenny and Bert f'sure in the meantime, i forgot to link a couple of story-based-reports; Ophelia Fights Ramos and Som'er vs Kaeris Quote
Chris Tomlin Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 I was looking at these and thought, "these are really cool, nice conversions etc". It wasn't until I read the other comment that the blue really clicked. Weird huh?! Haha, look great that. Works really well. Chris Quote
durek Posted February 6, 2013 Report Posted February 6, 2013 Very nice conversion and sculpt work. I actually really like the blue; which is weird as a local mentioned it once and I scoffed at him (eating crow now...) Quote
i_was_like_you Posted February 6, 2013 Report Posted February 6, 2013 Simply lovely. Blue suits them well though I can't help but think of them as Militant Smurfs (thankfully you didn't go with white pants and hats). Really like your conversions and scratch builds they are particularly well done. After our discussion about gremlin showgirls, I can't help but wonder why you didn't show me this brilliant thread. :-P Quote
greenstuff_gav Posted August 3, 2013 Author Report Posted August 3, 2013 okay, so i've been shifting alot of my malifaux; book 2 killed it and it's all been sat in boxes. Before my second (!) lot of gremlins goes for sale, thought i'd show you guys! what's this? cookies?! COOOKIIIEEES! it looks a bit battered.. what's inside? what the?! so, its a crew started by Whisper; he'd magnetised 'em to sit in the tin for transportation! he'd also painted the skin, leaving me the rest to do as Whisper has a vastly different technique to my own, thought it'd be fun to try what i always think of as the Rackham-Style colours; more subtle shades than my usual block colour Mr Teeth Jones himself; it's worth noting the bases are Tree Bark, glued before undercoat, and the trees are bits of twig! his pigsticker didn't come out well; with hindsight i'd have spent some time with a pointy file and gouged more bark effect into the haft... The Porkchop Express! i like the skin effect Whisper achieved; i haven't got the colours for such an endeavour nor the patience to blend in the purple on the snout! Piglets! nothing really to add; Whisper painted 'em, i just painted the bases! Gremlins Getcher bro! Y'all watch this! Squee! my favourite gremlin by far, Whisper also built a little dock for him to sit on i enjoyed paintin' 'em, i think on the whole they look quite good on the table! debating just mixing up some murky greenygrey for the flat of the base or leave it for the new owner to mix up water effect! next up gotta decide how much to sell 'em for! but thanks for looking and for the kind words regarding my "normal" paintwork! hopefully The_dWarf has got some games in!
