A bunch of Mini's..

[kingulrikflamebear]

Hello there, I thought I'd post up a list - with pics - of my current best works. I paint a lot and do so enjoy it and so I put alot of my effort into the models, I am as of yet to actually enter into any sort of competition (re: GD) or anything but I will be soon with a couple of the mini's you see here.

I just wanted to know what people think of my works overall, all comments and feedback welcome - I'd like to know how to improve myself alot more.

I can't take pics for anything, I seem to get ok ones and then the editing looks ok but alot of colour bleeds out of them so they look rather different than IRL. This means lack of visible highlights and such. Also as to actual painting I can only truely do a few things, I am yet to learn advanced techniques and so it maybe painfully obvious to people such as some on here.

Anyways these are the most recent and best of my works -

Ah, they are working now. Awesome work overall mate, some really nice painting going on here!

You have a good start there, you paint the areas well, neat and clean. My only recommendation for now is that you concentrate in how to improve the general contrast of your minis, working either from much darker to much lighter or shading the colour much darker and then highlighting further, to increase the definition of the form of the mini. With such small figures it is nescessary to exaggerate quite a lot in order for it to begin looking 'natural'...

...keep up the good work

Some really great minis there. My favourites is Valten, Bugman and The White Dwarf. I got inspired, I really feel like painting some dwarves ( I have never painted a dwarf before).
