I'm still trying to get over the quality of that. It's just superb.

Inspiring stuff. I've just spent an amusing hour reading Lazy's blog which is full of more of this sort of modelling goodness.

One to watch.

Thanks fellas! I've just finished some WIP painting of this piece. I'm really NOT satisfied of the result in flash, but in photos it looks better (that's why i still use this technique, but really, in flash it's just crappy).



Clearly, the squared nails are still missing, i've to paint them in metal, and than ink the edges. :)
I definitely have to find another way to paint it, because i don't want to paint a whole building with this technique.

Hi,
very well done so far. The details are crisp, both on the Master and the cast. Can't wait to see more.

For my personal taste the painting could be improved a lot by weathering - especially the wooden parts. Have you ever tried dry pigments? Since I use them I could achieve more realistic effect in less time. I would recommend the set from NOCH with 8 very useful and long lasting pigments.





Here are two pictures of a small piece of rubble before and after I treated them with pigments.

Before: painted in main colors with only one wash or drybrush


After: added different pigments in about 3-4 minutes



Ciao
