And I hoped that would be an easy model to knock off the shame pile, I forgot the lantern will want OSL, the reason I still haven't finished a few Kaeris' models. Good job though. You wouldn't happen to have painted a Fire Golem, would you? I could use one for reference.

Yeah, I've got a few photos of the golem. It's one of the first I worked on to figure out flames and OSL, so it's a little rough.

Aww, not what I was looking for unfortunately. My problem is not OSL, it's getting a good shade of the heated brazier's metal grate. I'll be totally stealing your OSL for the SS Golem though, except for my soulstones looking more like bismuth crystals.

I think most people just go with a dark metal (sort of cast iron brazier) vibes for the gratings and metalwork in the flame golem (I know I did, the main difference in colour scheme is i did the floating masks in a very light ivory layered over a gold to try and get a kind of superheated ceramic feel). You could try for the metal having a red glow but I think that'd be super hard to make look good. Aside from the technical aspects (glowing metal is difficult, there's nothing physical to have it casting the light on as you can't illuminate a flame, and so on) I think it'd make the model very busy with no focal point or contrast. The dark iron grates are much easier to do, give a real nice contrast and let the flames be the bright part Electrichobo, as always model looks great, you have an eye for light! Still using mainly oils?

I kinda want to try painting something like that now.

Fallout, 40k, AoS, random etsy minis Today's shipment:  I picked them cause they look cool. Unfortunately I wont be able to play till the 10th which means I will just need to keep grinding away at painting

X-post from painting thread:SiKboy posted:Did a little painting; The Dawn Serpent is an ebay rescue, and only had one of the nose smoke trails, made the executive decision that he looks better without any than with one. His previous owner had glued him flat to a base, crawling over some rocks, I doubled checked his card, and yeah, he can fly, so I pinned him to a 3d printed rock thing. I do have a spare flight stand somewhere, but thought it would get in the way of the basing in this case. I like the Draugr models okay on their own merits, but if I was in charge I'd have had the sculptor give them some sort of viking element. Based to match the rest of the Revenant crew I did a while back, they're on graveyard styled bases but conspicuously keeping off the grass.

Looking good! The Draugr are ripped, that seems appropriately viking-like, at least according to modern media. I managed to get prize support from Wyrd for the league I'm running, so we ended up at 14 participants. That's pretty good, considering that we were two when the lockdowns ended. We've had about 25 different players all in all, and most of them still play when they find the time. It's nice that we've managed to keep it going in my extremely Games Workshop dominated area.

My customary X-post from the painting thread.SiKboy posted:Did a little more painting, all Malifaux The green dead doxy has some pretty nasty gaps which I have no idea how I didnt notice and fill at the building stage, but somehow didnt see until I went to put the basecoats down. Not the end of the world, shes a zombie victim of a serial killer, so can just cover with some blood for the blood god and they look okay as wounds. But if anyone out there are building them, although they dont seem particularly tricky, take your time with the head/arms of the one on the left, even though it might look aligned just triple check. And I have no idea why that tiny hat isnt sculpted onto the hand on the sprue. The Wanyudo was fun, after I decided what to do with the face. Really had some analysis paralysis between going with the grey I decided on, a sickly white (pallid wytch flesh probably) or a regular living skin tone. Could have done without him being symmetrical though (identical face on each side), at one point I realised I'd highlighted one side twice instead of what I thought I had done which was each side once. It was at that point I realised I should probably call it a night and pick him back up the next day.

I finally took decent pictures of all my painted Malifaux:         The reason I did is that I am selling all my Malifaux stuff (game died locally, unfortunately). All these and a bunch more unpainted are for sale in my SA Mart Thread
