Work In Progress

This is going to be 'Hamar' a charcter for one my clients' RPG. From Darksword's line, sculpted by Tom Meir.

The last three, finally. Once the bases are done, and I get some good photos, I think I'll toss them in the SD comp#15.

while I'm 1) sick, and 2) waiting for my hand to heal, I've taken off from working on comissions for a few days until I can concentrate and have a steady hand.
Made some progress on the Amazons in the interim. Dug up the std/musician, and found an extra stray warrior in an old box too. Slightly different flesh recipe due to a bottle of paint running out on me.

the musician and standard bearer for the warrior women are underway



go team, go!

Finished this samurai tonight... I'm very happy with him. the more washed out colors are a bit of a departure for me. It's nice to not do everything in high saturation.
Do you think he needs eyebrows?



The last two Amazons arrived in the mail today, so it's back to that project. I finished the shields I had left to do tonight:
Hopefully I can finish the last two ladies by next week, before my next project arrives.

finished this guy. . . final pics hopefully in a day or two:


This guy is coming along nicely too



Off to a puppet show tomorrow night, so probably no updates for a bit.

I'll be able to finish this fella as soon as the sand dries on the base.

IN the mean time, another one I've had started for a long time. Finally got past the flesh tones tonight:

I've had this guy on my desk, partially painted for months. I started and restarted him at least twice I think. I wasn't happy with any of the variations I'd tried. Today I decided it didn't matter that much . .. I love the figure, and so I'll be happy to have him in my collection no matter.



So now I'm finishing him up, quicker than I would have originally intended. . .but at least he'll be done.

The FUUK-Tarts gang is also done, yay!




Some closer pictures of the foot soldiers, the bikers, and a closer look at the gang leader.

A very fun project. If you're at Salute 2008, you can check them out in person.

I've been jacked up on cold medicine for two days, so I haven't trusted myself to do the freehand on the last 4 shields. Otherwise they're done. Just waiting for the musician and standard bearer to arrive in the mail, then the whole unit will be ready.
