Paint and Take Reaper Mini

Postby m_Janelle » Mon Mar 02, 2009 1:32 am

Hi all,

Since I've been busy with school and all, I haven't had much time to paint of late (forget finishing my Eldar forces by the fall :( ). However, thanks to Gamesummit's Reaper Paint and Take, I have gotten something finished since January!

Not the greatest paintjob ever, but not so shabby by my standards either. The red clothing, hair, skin, and metal bits were all painted with reaper paints at the event, and I finished up the rest with GW paints at home. All in all, about 2.5-3 hours, which showcases my absolute slowness for painting.

Not the greatest pics, I still struggle with my picture taking (especially since I almost always take pics late at night). Also, she didn't come based (or properly cleaned), so there is still some basing to do and mold lines which I won't be removing.

As always, C&C greatly appreciated, I'm always looking for tips to improve!

Even more awesome than it was when I left you! Good job. I still haven't finished mine. I'm not sure I ever will. ^__^

Ah, so that was you guys :) I knew you 2 looked somewhat familiar, though I'm pretty sure the only time I've seen you was at the St-Laurent closing mega battle (you were both there, I believe?)

And Jordan... you know you want to finish that model, and post it. I'm sure it'll blow mine away!


Plus, a single model like that won't take too long.

Probably Twilight Imperium, I heard they had a game of it running for most of saturday. (Rumor has it it was named because if you start first thing in the morning, you'll realize you need to stop when the sun starts to go down :P)

I believe Feor's right about the game.


Furthermore, a quick google search of the name would seem to confirm that it was indeed Twilight Imperium. From what little I heard... sounds like an AWESOME board game.
