Speed painted a few minis tonight. Took me about 90 minutes start to end. So not my greatest work but certainly table top standard. ’ve got a rumble against some elves tomorrow evening and my army is lacking a little range.
He may not be a big hat - but he’s got a bazooka so he’s more than welcome.
Hahaha no way man - I’ve got something a little more elite and detailed in mind for that but
Everything I paint is speed painted tbh. I’ve really trained myself to get results I’m happy with using lots of washes, contrast paints and quite heavy handed highlights.
My work hours can be pretty intense and I’ve got a young family so hobby time is restricted and I refuse to play with grey so I’ve had to adapt to painting fast! Haha
Haha this is basically a description of my life maybe of every dad with young kids !
I have bought a few armies over the years, all in gray… I also decided I will not play with an unpainted army anymore. Since my printer prints pretty fast I had to paint faster to keep up with my chaos dwarfs. I want to be able to play with them as soon as the lockdown restrictions allow for it.
Also. This is good training for when I’ll finally tackle my skaven horde… being able to speed paint 80 clanrats with contrasts might help me to plough trough them and stay motivated…
And then - many many months later - he finally put the finishing touches on the Taurus. This model has been a WIP for too long. I’ll have to get it on the battlefield and feed it some elves to make it up it it soon.
Such genius, much wow! I seriously would never have thought to take a High Elf Griffon and some River Troll parts to be able to make a beautiful and real-world-mythology-based Assyrian Lammasu. That is a truly inspiring piece of conversion work and may be the solution to my desire to not pay £100 for the model of yesteryear.
Looks even more magnificent when you bearded it up and added armour plates, etc. Fantastic job, man!
When is a big hat dwarf not a big hat dwarf? When he’s got a big hat?
This project keeps getting wider in scope. Sod it - if you’re short and angry and like beating up elves, Oxymandias and the heralds of hubris welcome
You into the fold.
@Abecedar I’ve painted something for GH which is not being posted yet…it will remain unposted unless I paint something else which I prefer before the deadline in which case I’ll post the first thing and enter the new thing haha.
Not strictly speaking a chaos dwarf model but it’s got to have a use in this army. A Kdaii? An enslaved demon? A mines of Moria balrog situation where the dwarfs dig too deep and wake it up but instead it’s chaos dwarfs and he’s like - you guys are alright!
Could be used as a Kdaii without any problems IMO, maybe try and redo the Khorne symbol as a CD rune? Anyway, seeing this model instantly gave me flashbacks to when it was released and trying to assemble and dabble with pinning for the first time. There was alot of parts and pins glued to fingers…
