    This is what I think of when I think about marble. Just a few thin lines of a dark grey over what you've got should be perfect.

    Truly epic! Beautiful selection of colours and very skillfully applied. Wish I could paint even half as well!

    Very very nice, when he is finished will you gloss lacquer his eyes, mouth and gems?

    Great stuff! My favourite detail is the orange skull gem in the staff, it's so cool!

    I can readily admit that I can not paint to anywhere near to Xlanax_lot's exceptional standard.

    AWESOME!!! I've been waiting so long for you to finish this model and it was definitely worth the wait. :):):):):)

    Did you weigh down (or magnetize) the base to keep him from falling over?

    Glad you liked it!

    Actually I just sculpt it so that the center of gravity is balanced and that it doesnt tilt forward so he stands preatty well on flat surfaces.

    Tha skink is magnetized though so that he can go either on the steg or in the base for casting the spell

    ... And the effort you put in it! Really nice piece! The idea is great and the execution is also very nice done! And the way you described it shows people like me, that patience and passion are important abilities for excellent painting.

    Thanks a lot man! I definatelly agree with you... I always try to take my time soecially with the heros and try to use them to learn new techniques and make them look beter than the ones I painted before!

    I really apreciate all the coments man! Happy that it was worth it!

    I am not sure yet maybe you guys can help me pick, I was thinking on my bastiladon, the other candidates are the following

    1. Cold one Knights from 6th ( I dont really like the new ones)
    2. Old Carnosaur
    3. Slann
    4. @woogity 's Kroxigors

    I think I am going for the bastilladon as I always try to learn from my precious model and I really want the Slann, and Kroxigors to look really really good! However it would be great to hear what you guys think.


    AWESOMEE! :)

    @Xlanax_lot

    You already know I regard you as one of the best painters to grace this forum so any model you paint will be very good but I would like you to paint your old carny, I have been waiting to see him finished for months :rage:
