The weathering on the shield is really well done.

Fantastic! Love the sculpt and the paint job brings it alive!

I don't get this half-troll, half-elf, half-orc business, especially not half-trolls. Who'd mate with a troll? They are *ugly*.


I have, they didn't look like troll's after a few beers - but the next day! That's how they get you - beer!

Oh a mispent youth!

Stunning work!

Where and how did you use printer inks?

Thank you all for the comments,appreciated :)

Wow, very nice! I'm guessing the slave orcs are also Asgard?
Duncan

Yes all Asgard

nice nice! lovely paintjob... and is the shield totally freehand? :)

Shield was scratch made from putty, then using liquid putty for the relief of the face, then painted

Stunning work!

Where and how did you use printer inks?

Just to be clear ;) 'Printers' inks as used in offset printing

These are a solvent based metalic paint which is slow drying therefore good to blend, oil colour can be added to change hues etc. works better with a bit of heat to cure them. All metals done with these. Downside is they smell and can be meesy if you spill it!!

Way cool paintjob on a fairly funky old mini. That face is just oddly flat looking! Wonderful work on the shield, and the whole piece is amazingly well executed. Top marks mate!

Nice mini - what shampoo does she use!  8)

Like the dark colours you've gone for too.

Edit - oops sorry meant to post this in comment on GreyWolf's Elf - back on topic - could I reccomend a shampoo for the troll -

Gorgeous work!

I have that orc chieftain somewhere, unpainted.   Haven't seen him in years, though.  Wonder where he is...
