Dwarf World

[razhburz]

Hi di Hi!

I've recieved my Bob Olleys Dwarf World minis on friday. I Decided to pic one up and start painting to see what they were like. I was totally hooked! Here is my first Dwarf. He (and all the other dwarves too) will be used in a diorama hence th lack of base




Real Size:


I painted his eyes so they are crossed with the effort of keeping the bagpipes going ;D


Thanks for looking!

Awesome! I love the tartan on a dwarf!

[zapoteke]

OMG! that was quick! and very good too! seems like nice minis to paint... keep em comming.

Looks very good but some of the lining on the tartan could be better.

[razhburz]

hey hey thanks for your comments guys! glad you like him.
yeah I agree some of the stipes could be better, especially the white ones. this was the first time I tried to do anythink like this and I did the white ones last and didn't want to repaint everything, 'coz I was afraid of spoiling it all. so I'll try to make the next one better instead

[bruenor]

Looks great, the tartans a nice touch, but the crossed eyes really give it that bit of character!!!

[gi6ers]

Nice work, I've painted a few of the females in the range and they were great fun. Top job!

[razhburz]

trhanks for your comets

I 'll give the white stripes another thin layer before I put it on CMON

Great first go at the tartan. I have tried it (once) myself and it is quite a challenge. The white could use a bit more defining, but the green lines are very well done. My only other nitpick would be to have a bit more highlighting on the beret--it looks a bit flat compared to the cloak. The eyes and red nose are a great touch.

Wow! Fantastic mini mate

[roguetrader]

great work, a characterfull little fella, keep them coming soon to be tim c 2 lmao!!

[endrem]

This is a cute one, excellent idea and a good paintjob on a very funny mini. Must get one myself

[dogfacedboyuk1]

Really cool Andre - how about some nice rosy cheeks from all that effort of playing???

[razhburz]

cheers buddies ;D Realy pleased to her you like him.

Here is his Fishing buddy:

Great job on the weathering. The strong highlighting with gray/silver on the fish doesn't look quite right to me, but the color contrasts nicely with the hood.

[bruenor]

Great job Andre, really like how he's turned out.
The highlights on the fish don't bother me, as it looks like an oiley reflection that you sometimes get on fishscales.

[razhburz]

Thanks for your comments guys! I've been thinking of adding some 'ard coat to the fish. good or bad idea??

[bruenor]

Good, will make it look slimey as fish should.

Agreed!

[razhburz]

thanks I'll go for some 'ard coat then.

Now here is my washer woman



Thanks for looking

Andre

Rge washer woman is wonderful - well done

[Tim C]

She is very nice Andre, you might want to change the background for the picture as it is too similar to the dress, also the pics would be better posted vertically that would allow you to show bigger images, aroun d 450 to 480 dpi which is the size I usually go. Keep it up brother.

[bruenor]

Very good mate, I agree about the background ad pic sizes, but nice work!!

[razhburz]

Thanks Tim #1 and 2 and James

I chosed (sp?) that background because the blue one I normally use were to similar to the head scarf hehe. I will take some new piccies later but she is packaged away for now. I have some other dwarves on the desk ready to get painted.

Thanks for looking and commenting ;D

[razhburz]

Finally managed to finish one more of these lovely Dwarves!




Thanks,

Andre
