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

Thanks StoneAngel.
I finished one more Sculpt in this set. It's a Dwarf Barbarian. He's got a throwing axe in one hand and his GreatAxe at rest.
I wanted a barbarian with a little different look than the common GW dwarf.







I'm hoping to get some stuff painted soon. (hopefully)
Game ON!

Wow, he's great looking. I wish I could get one of him. Maybe you need to start casting these minis...

 

[nyrfherdr]

WOW. Thanks. That's high praise indeed.

I've never really looked into casting mini's. My focus is on sculpting for my own enjoyment.
I've done a few commissions for friends to create their character in miniature form, but that's about it.

It would really depend on how difficult it is to cast miniatures. Since I have no idea what it takes, it's still voodoo to me.

Thanks again for the kind words.

Do you take outside commissions? Email me at rjmiller-at-gmail-dot-com. I might have 1 or 2 characters that I'd like to have made, if you feel up to it and the price is right.

Nyrf,

Casting decent minis is not difficult at all. If you get interested in this let me know.

 

[pogre]

You are so it my friend

 

[nyrfherdr]

Hmmm. I don't have any new mini's to show right now. But, never one to let a gauntlet drop on me, here's a photo of a mini I've seen somewhere else...

He's a Paladin from Reaper.



I don't have a picture of him from the other side. I'll try and take one this weekend to post.
He's unmodified unlike his brother on another thread.

I'll try and get something done this weekend to post.

I really like the free hand you did on the front of the paladin's garb. It will be cool when you post the backside so folks can see the differences in the shields.

If you have the time or inclination could you tell me how you did the wings on the Balrog in your initial post on this thread. I am working on some big wings on a project and I like the looks of what you did on that model.

 

[nyrfherdr]

Before I show the painted Dwarf,
Here is the back of the Paladin from above. My apologies. I originally stated that the mini was original, but I lied. I filed off what was on the shield and painted a freehand symbol.
My most sincere apologies...

Reaper Paladin:


Here is a different view of the Front of the mini. I think the detail comes out a little better, but I could be biased.

 

[nyrfherdr]

OK... I painted my Dwarf Barbarian. The green is above.
I like how he turned out.
