Well now. This has piqued my interest.  However there's a lot of talk and not much pictures  ;)
How about you guys that have made some show us your stuff?

Please  :D

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."

Hi all.

I am painting a few dungeon pieces. A very basic paint job.
Until I finish them and take several pics, here you are some figurines:

Sharp painting !

I really like your orcs, with these classic D&D skin tones.

I also like the last blueish grey of the official D&D bestiary.


I'm a bit sad I painted all my orcs green  lol

Thanks!!

My orcs are brown, as per Lord of the Rings. No green mammals here (orcs are mammals, arenīt they?).

I am using this method:

Is anybody doing something similar?

Emilio

I'm doing the exact same thing, also based on the DMG videos.

I'm curious how you gonna paint your tiles: I did NOT do it my first ones the DMG way, instead I brushed PVA glue on them and dipped them into my usual basing material. I basecoated the whole thing with black paint, and I'm about to drybrush them with grey, but...

I'm starting to think I should have done the painting the DMG way, with a cut up sponge and stuff...

Depends who you talk to, GWs orcs are fungi, Tolkiens mammals (corrupted elves and humans), don't know about D&D though.

In D&D must be mammals, bacuse they can breed with humans.

Driller, I painted the pieces with a black spray, then painted the floor with a brush and grey paint. Then marked the tiles with a pencil and painted them with a brush and lighter grey. marked the divisions between tiles witha fine brush and black paint. Finally, a light brown wash. I didnīt use a sponge, because the craft paint I got donīt goes well that way.

Are you from Budapest? My grandfather was hungarian and lived in Budapest until he came to Spain in early thirties.
