| This week I only finished the robes and I have to say, I hate them. Just like the dogs, I had to paint the robes two times. I mean the Slayer went out so fine and easy and the Witch Hunter Miniature are such a pain to paint. | |

| Ultimately you are the only one who has the deciding vote, but the Priest & his loony Zealots look TERRIFIC to moi. It is one of those things that every so often there are minis that are a pain to work on & just don't look the way we want them to; I usually put them aside for awhile...they normally start looking better with time. Be that as it may, I hope the rest of the paint job is more enjoyable. Have FUN! | |

| Used yesterday evening and night (until 1 o'clock) to concentrate on the Sigmar Priest. I have to say, that working on a miniature after an other and not several at the same time seems to be the best way for me. Right now i am quite satisfied with the Priest. And I have to say thank you Deaf Nala and cuboid. Without your kind comments I would have decolourise the Priest instead of put him aside for a while and try to get the best of hin. | |

| The Holy Guy looks RIGHTEOUSLY TERRIFIC! Your colors have an earthy warmth to them that fits the subject perfectly. Your brushwork is OUTSTANDING; GREAT freehand AND the skulls & the Priest's expressive face are WONDERFUL. GREAT WORK! - smile wrote:

I'm glad to have been of some service...all for one & all that stuff. AND I agree that painting the minis one at a time is much more rewarding. It also lends itself to individualizing the pieces, which suits skirmishing games like Mordheim. | |

| you're welcome, he looks great! he certainly fits in with the Mordheim feel, he looks like he has been delving into dark and dangerous place not every model has to be a riot of contrasting colours, and we all have our own style and vision when we paint, and with humans particularly i like the gritty shabby look. | |

| AND I thought you couldn't improve on perfection. That is quite an improvement. The Holy Guy & Associates really look the part. GREAT brushwork & some FINE color choice... OUTSTANDING WORK! You have the Karl Dall down perfectly: | |

| Thanks for the kind comments. @ Grimscull Yup, I will do them in a row. So they will look all the same, because I have to mix some colours for the cobblestones. | |

| Because I'll have this weekend hardly time to paint, I tried painting the fire. For me fire is one of the most difficult elements to paint. So what do you think - is it ok, or should I repaint it? And have you any tips for me? | |

| Fire does give most everyone a problem. I think it the bit that the yellow is the under color & it highlights up to red while it feels like the colors should be reversed. However, it looks like you got it down perfectly...or approaching perfection. GREAT WORK! Sorry to hear your weekend has been spoken for. | |

| Imo, the fire is a little on the yellow side, but maybe that's just me. Also, when I look at the metal parts of the torch, I think a combination of the left and right might look good. Not all metal, not all yellow, but maybe metal drybrushed with yellow? When I do torches (and I do paint up witch hunters quite regularely), I basecoat with the brightest colour und then drybrush with a couple of layers, each layer a little darker than the former and going a little more to the top of the flames. Quite the reversible order of how you usually do it.
Since you mention the Cosplay: do you know anyone from the former Mytholon-crew? Falk perhaps? | |

| I was a couple times at the Mytholon to play Mortheim but I would not say that I know him. Just like a coustemer would know a Shopowner.
The flames look a little bit to yellow on the picture. It is more in the orange/red. I will try the drybrushing as you mentioned. | |

| to be honest the fire looks to white, and thus to hot. In the last picture it looks a bit better. I love the white stripes in the man's beard | |
