1500 view project delayed

I know im probably just making excuses, but I will not be able to post a 1500 view project. Due to commitments at work and the fact that the 1500 views is actually happening much quicker than I expected (hooray!).

I have been working on it though so hopefully itll be finished in the not too distant future and I can put up some pics. :)

This is my first attempt at layering... The right hand tusk has been layered. Sorry about the quality of the photo. Ill get the net hooked up at home soon and I can post some better ones.

Another week away from home

Well, it seems lately most of my posts have been apologies for not posting. But I havent really had a chance to do much in the way of painting. I have been working on a new project, but Ive been away with work this week and havent been able to do any painting.

But my weekend should be full of all things painting so with any luck ill have plenty of freshly painted minis to post up next week.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Started on the dragon

Well, I started work on the dragon last night. I only got a little bit done but im happy with the way its looking so far. Will be doing a bit of layering tonight on the wings to give them some depth and hopefully not ruining them in the process. :) I like to leatherish look so far.

Savage Orc Big Boss WIP

I made a start on the Savage Orc Big Boss, I had planned to start the dragon this morning, but im a bit apprehensive to start until I nail down some of the techniques ive been practicing.

I really love this model... (Sorry about the picture quality, until I get the internet hooked up at home I can only take them with my phone. My new Digital SLR has to wait.)

The new arrivals

The new purchases turned up today and after scaring the delivery driver when I answered the door in my angry birds PJ's (hehe) I set about putting the first one together. Im starting on the High Elf Lord On Dragon first. I put most of it together and I was surprised about how well it assembled. Generally there is a lot of cleaning up and adjusting required before you can glue but this one went together really well. I temp fitted the wings and undercoated it white. Ill start the painting tomorrow morning.

Ive decided to put it on a bigger base so that there is room for the elemental mage that im going to include in the diorama. So im going to see what other stuff I can find to put on the base. Ive got a pretty big bits box so im sure I can find something. :)
