hey matt, quite nice the blood effect whats not finished about it?

the other 5 models ?

ah I see, but I still think they have the Norse look but ok they are quite nice for sure

Good thing Mordheim doesn't take place in the woods; taking blood baths is sure to attract some bears, like a kid to candy. =]

I think they are very bloody; but I guess that's what they end up looking like after every fight. =]

hehe, those guys are pit fighters! they properbly know how to get somo blood out of you ;D

Point Taken =]

Very nice Matt. The Blood'n'gore isn't everybody's taste, but for Pit Fighters, why not.
Well done.

Just a little criticism if i may:

Make sure the miniatures are not out of focus and all blurry on your pics next time if you can.
1) activate "Macro" mode on your camera ("Flower" button)
2) Do not come TOO close (even in macro mode)
3) Give the camera a few seconds to focus on the mini in order to get a sharp image, before you press the button.

To be honest, I was only looking at the minis standing in the background, because only they are sharp. The foreground is just a blur.

yeah, I found out two. but had to take some pics fast, and the camera isn't what it used to be anymore .

so well, the background doesn't look that crappy, right?

Nice work man! These guys are covered in blood... the ogre will take you an entire red ink 2 liters bottle ... sea of blood! Blood for the blood go... ehm no, wrong sentece

Just one thing: i'd use other colors for shields, dwarves' hair and capes, like green or blue, so the blood will be more powerful to the eye (imho ).

My 2 cents, Emanuele.

thanks for your advice
but sorry, all my models use red/black/gold, so i won't change it at this guys

Nice models man!

A little critique - They seem to me a little toooo bloody and gorey. I know thats the idea but it seems like that models are getting somewhat lost under a veil of messy red.

Otherwise, keep at it, I want to see the rest of this band

hehe, thanks for the advice and stuff, but i quitted on them (one of the reasons is that i found them too red )

Holy crappers! I love 'em. What paints manufacturer do you use and what color red?

Thanks for sharing.

hehe, thanks.
i just painted them normal, and then gave them some coats of red ink..
wait, i'll look up that tutorial for you

here you are;
