Title: feral ghoul
Post by: demi_morgana on May 23, 2010, 10:25:23 PM

so Sinewgrab made me envious with his super fallout3 topic - I'm not even gonna try to hide that ;)
I am now playing fallout3 again and also wanted to have mini from this worls in my glasscase so I took manting games ghoul (free sample mini), gave it radioactive swamp base and after ~4 hours of painting the mini was finished :)

I like it although I can now see some parts should be redone / corrected; hope you like it too!

Nice and scary, reminds me of the crawlers from the Descent.

This ghoul is great. Paintjob and weathering on the barrel is outstanding.

The Mantic ghouls are already on my wishlist. This ghoul is a great inspiration for how to paint them.

Man, what a great filthy-looking paint job! This chap oozes corruption...

I especially like the sick yellowish hepatitis-like skin-tone and the corroded looks of the barrel. I would never have thought of using a skin tone like this on a ghoul but will most definitely do so in the future.

Thanx for sharing!

thanks again! :D
I think I should retake pics - apparently camera was catching focus on the plinth I used more than on the miniature... too bad - sculpt is really nice :)

and the next ghoul has just been based - well it's legs only so far ^^

Excellent!  Very creepy looking. 

I recently bought a bunch of ghouls from Heresy in idea of making some 'modern' ghouls.....You've captured the look I really like!

Thanks for posting it.

Excellent work. You've got a better hand than I do, but I am so okay with that. Glad to provoke painting!

Bloody lovely. I don't know why I looked at a ghoul in Future Wars but I am certainly glad I did.
