Looks good Tony - is it possible to get a shot with more lighting?

Cheers
Hagen
Spektre
looks great from what i can see tony!

bit closer maybe next time?

is that a warmachine base on a GW model?
Diesel
Hagen, I suck at taking good pics but I'll try biggrin.gif Just for you wink.gif

Craig, I'll try a closer one too biggrin.gif The base is a precast resin base I bought from the UK. Suitable for WM, 40k etc....

Cheers

Nice work, great combo of colours that is tongue.gif

Shes looking good, is her eye Bionic? it looks a little strange, thats all.

You really have Blue and Red down to an art tongue.gif

Cheers,

Tom

Yes Tony, your photography does suck biggrin.gif because I think she looks even better in the 'flesh'...so to speak.

So...how are the other 60 models coming along??? laugh.gif

Cheers
Mark tongue.gif
Diesel
Mark, Slowly and thanks biggrin.gif
Ghetti
Nice.

My only gripe would be the flame, but this is a personal thing. The brightest flame should be in the deep areas, closer to the source and the dark red to black parts at the tips. *shrug* Call me a critic smile.gif

Also, the metal on the bolt pistol doesn't seem finished, or is that just the camera?

Cheers,
G tongue.gif

agree with flame... neesds a nip of more brightness on the edge


and from teh angle, i cant really see any detail on the sword... more lighting please?

Looks good Tony. hair looks a little flat, but I guess it's the pic rather than the fig.
Speed Adict
Noice going Tony, she looks purty tongue.gif

Feel free to bring her and her friends (and any other fine looking females you know) down to H_Con biggrin.gif

So very nice Tony 8)

Arc painting judges are picky about their flames, this I know.

Look forward to seeing the whole army.

Love the contrast in the colours mate, you have a real good colour scheme going there. Also like the way you have executed the armour as well!

Well done mate!!!

Seriously fellas...this mini is so sweet that after killing her in a recent game I tentatively refrained from 'handling' the model (I was assisting Tony to clear the debris after some DG rapid fire and flaming) in case it hadn't been sealed yet.
Unlike Nana-Boles Seraphim which I happily sent flying back across the table smile.gif...or Stu's 'Sisters of Incomplete Tragedy' who would be better served with retro-fitted umbrellas to save them from the dummy spit spittle biggrin.gif...or even my own SOB's that often receive the one-handed group hug of death. laugh.gif
straylight
spittle ? ........bio-acid spewing forth from the mouths of the kiwis more like...

:-D

Lovely work.

You've inspired me - as soon as I finish my 'nids, my next army is Sisters.
Diesel
Thanks fellas,

The feedback has been encouraging, I'm on the right track!!

She hasn't been completely finished yet. I've got to do a little work on the base and the bolt pistol needs highlights. As Ghetti has picked out with his keen eye for detail. I'm thinking along the lines of maybe a Yellow/Black Danger pattern on the Bolt Pistol.

As for the Lighting and Picture Quality......I'm a crap photographer sad.gif But I'll attempt to get some better shots asap!! biggrin.gif

H-Con?? Might be there painting but, I'm not playing...But will be there on the Saturday to lend a hand and help Brent out with the serious stuff.

Anyways Thansk again for the kind remarks and encouragement biggrin.gif

Cheers

Tony
Lachy
Just out of curiousity, how did you do the highlights on the black?
Diesel
Black??? The only black is on the Bolt Pistol wink.gif

The Armour is Blue biggrin.gif

Cheers

*grumblemuttergrumble*smartarse*muttermuttergrumble*

Alright, how did you highlight the blue then?

(You need to take better photos for the sake of us glasses-wearing folk, my good man - I could have sworn they were blue highlights across a black mini! tongue.gif)
Diesel
Yes Yes my photography stinks!! :oops:

Ok Blue....start with Midnight Blue Base on Black undercoat....move onto 50/50 Regal Blue/Midnight Blue, then to th 50/50 Mix of Midnight and Regal add some more Regal, making it about 50% lighter than the last mix. Then brighter highlights are Regal/Enchanted, then final highlight is the 50/50 mix of Regal/Enchanted with Ice blue.

Make sense don't ask me to explain the application and where, but this is the palette I used for the blue biggrin.gif

Cheers

That's cool, I think I can work it out from your description.

The reason I asked is that I've just acquired a Sisters army, and I'd like to try a blue highlight on the black to avoid the dusty look that greys can sometimes give.
