Title: Huzzah! Flintloque Elf
Post by: Svennn on May 12, 2009, 10:32:20 AM: Just for my own amusement I took this guy in the bare metal and spent 45 minutes on him to get to this

Nice painting even if you had not mentioned your time limit. And that makes it even better.

Had a lot of painting sessions with Elves and dark elves from the Flintlogue game.

Post by: Mancha on May 12, 2009, 04:34:47 PM: It would take me three hours spread out over five weeks to achieve that! Seriously! I have to figure out a faster painting technique. :(

Post by: keeper on May 12, 2009, 05:00:28 PM: I painted one of these chaps years ago for an RPG - took me a lot longer tha 45 mins and doesn't look half as good! :)

Nice model, though! :)

Post by: Svennn on May 12, 2009, 05:09:41 PM: Thank you kindly. I didn't set out with 45 minutes as a limit - I just went for it to see how fast I could do it. Its very untidy in places as I didn't go back and touch up my mistakes and the base is quite poor as the filler was still damp when I did it. A limited pallette helped but to be honest I rarely spend much more than an hour on anything - I don't have the patience.

Great job!. A question, how do you do the yellow/gold zones?

Post by: dampfpanzerwagon on May 12, 2009, 07:06:50 PM: Well done - and I agree with an earlier post - One of the very best figures that AA produce.

Some of the older ones are very nice!
Sorry for resurrecting this post, but this is a very, very nice mini Svenn. Excellent job.

Post by: rob_the_robgoblin on July 27, 2009, 05:29:37 PM: The new flintloque rules are quite fun and Slaughterloo is an excellent system.
It has it's flaws, but as does every system.

I never played that I think the set I have was by Steve Blease Rank and Vyle IIRC. The dueling game was around regiments in that universe and was really a one off figure to figure game aways planned on using it for 40mm but never got round to it ::)
