Sometimes I come to the end of a commission and go to take the photos for the customer, but the weather conditions are such that the lighting in the studio are awful and no amount of rearranging the lights will improve the situation. Thus it was with my last batch of C-series Thieves for Richard 'Orclord' Hale, but I knew he was also itching to get his toys as quickly as possible, so I snapped some substandard images to let him see what was coming and posted them off. As luck would have it, one of the models was holding a flaming torch and required a bit of OSL to get it right. The dodgy lighting actually helped! So, I won't show the rest of the batch, but he at least may be displayed.

I like the torch effect, but having seen example of your work
dodgy lighting would not diminish their impact.

Lovely stuff  :-* :-* :-*

As mush as I adore all those old GW miniatures, and would love to paint up one (maybe every week), I do find the prices astounding. Still, that takes nothing away from your brushwork.

Oh hell, you can get 'em for £5 to £10. I like getting batches of oddments and sorting through.
