Nyrfherdr's Mini Thread - Inspired by Pogre (NEW 3/1/07 - AFTER A YEAR!)

[nyrfherdr]

Thanks for the kind comments. Always appreciated.
Also... Keep looking at the tips threads.

On paints. I use Vallejo, Reaper Master Series and their new line.
I have also used Delta Ceramcoat and similar craft paints and gotten fine results.
If you need tips on using craft paints, try them out.

Testor's makes primer that works well.


I hope that helps.

I haven't posted a picture in forever.
I finished my insect miniature, but I only have these in progress photos.
Take a look.





I also am still plugging away on the Dire Troll. Here are some WIP photos for you to gaze upon.





I'll post the completed bug this weekend. Maybe I'll finish the troll soon too, before Privateer Press ships theirs!!!
Game ON!

Wow! That troll is looking fantastic. I cannot wait to see it finished.

Thanks Pogre. I appreciate it.
Here is the completed bug robot and some more Troll progress. I'm plugging away slowly.

Awesome work on the bug robot! It looks great and I can't wait to see it painted. The troll is coming along nicely as well!

I love them all, the woldwarden the most

 

[D'karr]

Fantastic stuff. Very well done. I love the Bug Robot's tentacles. Awesome work.
The troll is impressive. I'd hate to meet one of those suckers in combat.

 

[nyrfherdr]

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the kind comments.
I actually believe I have finished the troll. (Well, the sculpting part. He still needs to be painted).

I'll take some photos tonight and get them posted soon.
Thanks again!

Game ON!

Man! I want a Worldwarden and a Bug-Robot! Technical critique: Those are super cool!

 

[nyrfherdr]

Thanks Mr. Goblinoid. A couple of people have asked me to start casting my mini's in metal. Unfortunately, that's not something I'm ready for right now.
I do have some good news. I suspect that Privateer Press will be releasing a WoldWarden miniature sometime in 2006. They haven't announced it, but I have a suspicion.

I didn't get a chance to take a photo of my completed Dire Troll. I'll try and do that this evening. In the meantime, I found a photo of some Rakham mini's I haven't shown before. They are from their Confrontation line. Some kind of knights. I don't play the Confrontation game, so I can never remember the mini's names. I buy them because they look darned cool on the tabletop.
