The high contrast highlights and the blacklining between colour areas is everything I want to see in a painted miniature.  Fantastic!

Thanks for the comments. :)

I painted him based on Kevin Dallimore's tutorial in his book - so very much my attempt at the "Foundry style". I enjoyed it and learnt some things too.

Looks great.

I've been thinking of doing the exact same thing. Did you use all the same colors as in the tutorial?

Thanks :)

The blue is the same but the rest are GW paints as that's what I had. It was more about the technique but I did try to match the colours as closely as possible.

He do look great! But I really think you should use 5 minutes to touch up the pouches on his back. There is some blue paint on the greens.

Really cool. I'm using a similar painting technic (powerfull contrats + black lining) I didn't know someone made a book about this style) on my superheroes miniatures, and I think you did a really good job !


This technic is interesting because the mini stays nice to look no matter the light, and no matter how far you are from it. It's still very "read-able".

He looks great, really vibrant and comic book MC1 looking.

I agree with Jonas, five more minutes to tidy those pouches would be well worth it :)

Thank you; I did not notice that somehow. I will touch it up later this week when I get a chance. :)

It is a common mistake. I do it myself all the time  :D

I look forward to see more 2000AD models.

I do have a few more. I enjoyed painting Dredd so I will paint them up, probably as an interlude in my current project to keep from burning out.
