In other news I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of some starship minis from Ravenstar studios. I can't wait to try my hand on those.

#9 and 10
The first I painted to enter into a contest held by Cipher Studios to find a painted piece for their Empire Agent. The second is a quick paint of a Reaper fig (Kale Nolan) I was working on in parallel. I finished him yesterday. The color palettes are similar though I'm sure you all can see differences.

The facial expression on the second model is fantastic! Great work!
ReplyDeleteBah, I just noticed I forgot his eyebrows when I read your comment. Twice now I've done that.
ReplyDeleteHoly dooly! That first paint job is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteAnd my Empire Agent -won-! *falls over*
ReplyDeleteAnd from the looks of it, I squeaked out a win. http://cipher-studios.com/2010/04/empire-agent-contest-winner/#more-74
Wow! You deserved a win, man. That's a gorgeous mini.
ReplyDeleteQuick question, are those cipher minis the regular 28-32mm size? I'd love to get some of those if they're not too different than Reaper's in size.
They are.
ReplyDeleteWhat I've found, is that I think they sculpt truer to scale, so limbs and such are often "thinner" and so you'll have less pewter than you might expect. This has an effect on pinning/assembly that I'm not generally used to.
But they are gorgeous sculpts.
Thanks for the reply, Joe. Gonna have to break my bank and get some of those. I love that Empire agent.
ReplyDeleteBTW, nice job on Kale Nolan, as well. I recently painted up one of him... didn't turn out nearly as nice.
