Ye Olde Inn

I've started to paint my figurines. It's a "grande première" to me since I never did it before.
Here are the result of this exciting week :















I've already bought another barbarian and a chaos sorceer since I've totally missed them. (my first tries !)

Pretty good for your first tries. Especially the Advanced HeroQuest Heroes. Those are really well done. Some appear to have a bit too much gloss on them, but that could be from the camera flash.

Your wizard character looks really worried and looks like Jarvis Cocker.

I like your AHQ work and I like that you were brave enough to paint your Elf and Barbarian Quest Pack figures.

You might also be able to dull them with some dullcoat lacquer. Many people use the 'dip' method instead of painting the lacquer on to avoid streak marks.

My painter used a spray can to finish the models, which you can find http://forum.yeoldeinn.com/viewtopic.php?f=145&t=325

They did a stellar job, but remember they are professional artists who get paid to do art well.
I think I might ask him to document his steps when he does my EXTRA witch king.

I use bright dullcoat lacquer at the end when the paint is terminated.
Some people hate it but if you work correctly the shadow lines it's superbe.
Example :



My Yetis are over ! I have almost finished the wolves and the mummies.
I will start again my chaos sorceer, barbarian, shaman orc & old mage.
Should be ok at the end of this week hehe ^^.
Finally painting is something I find out very amuzing and pleasant.

woooo Yetis and Wolves!
