ORCTOBER IS JUST BEFORE DWARVEMBER !

I've missed "Orctober" ... is it too late to post some pictures of those nice guys ?? 

so I've finished in "ORCTOBER" those MITHRIL figures :

I've tried to have a "not-too-green" skin-colour ... but it's not easy !
I've done a soft-brushing with light grey for the final highlighting:
What do you think about the result ?

1- M101 "Orcs Serfs" (Misty Mountains) :




2- M335 : "Snagas" : (orcs from Cirith Ungol  ) :
I've not put the shields... I was thinking that it was not necessary !
Your opinion ?





....and coming soon :
Dwarves for Dwarvember ! (maybe in  December ... !)

"BEAUTIES OF THE WEST and "LADIES of the SOUTH"

I've finished to paint some "beauties" which could take place in my Western Town.
1- a set from "RF-Figures" (HAGEN : link  )



2- a set of "Confederate ladies" ... but I can't find the manufacturer (just that they come from Hagen again... )







Coming soon : .... Mounties, Orcs, Western Buildings, Pirates Ship ...

"Caribbean Flamenco" (Pirate from Germania Figuren).... and UPDATES !

Hi! this is a single figure that I've painted with the other of the sets "Pirates of the Caribbean " (=>here).
I've used it for a little work for the 40th Competition on Benno's Forum .
I've won the Bronze Brush ! Very surprising for me because the level was high...
Thanks to all those who have voted for me and congrats to all the participants, especially for Konrad ( Golden Brush ) who beat me easily in the first turn !







... and now UPDATES !
1- refer to my post "   I'm crazyyyyyyyyyy !?? That's ok ! I'm not mad and it seems that it's normal to have a lot of projects at the same time ! Thanks for your support gents ! 
Since, I've finished some and now I've a lot of posts to do .... for example:
-"Beauties of the West"
-"Walling boat"
-"Mithril Orcs"
-some more "mounties"
-and the finished buildings of my future "Wild West Town"
So stay tuned !
(Of course, I've started new projects but it will be a surprise !)

2-Refer  to my post  "Tombstone",  I've done some searches about the story of the Earps, Doc Holliday and the clans Clanton et McLaury all represented in the 3 sets. 
If all those characters have really existed, the story of the gunfight of Ok Corral has inspired a lot of films like "My darling Clementine (John Ford 1946) , "Gunfight at OK Corral" (John Sturges 1957),
Cheyenne Autumn (John Ford 1964), ....., "Tombstone" (Georges Pan Cosmatos 1993) , Whyatt Earp (Laurance Kasdan 1994)... 

The poster of the film "Tombstone" and my pictures (I've painted the figures without it but with the pictures of Germania Figuren ) :

"Tombstone" ( GERMANIA FIGUREN)

Like it seems that I'm in a "normal madness" (look here ), I've done some shots (!) of one the finished project !
They are figures sculpted by Massimo for Germania Figuren : 2 sets (look here and here ).
I've painted other sets of this serie : "Cowboys at the Trail" and "Cowboys!"  .
I like them a lot and I'm waiting the new sets that I've ordered recently ( + 3 sets to paint !!! ).

and now : Pictures !!!!!!!!!!!! 
(note: just the figures, the scenery and background is on the way... )








I'm crazyyyyyyyyyy ! ??

Hi ! This evening I was painting and suddenly , I've realized that I have no more place on my tables !!
So I've decided to make a review of what was on them ...
So far, all is well, you think, that's normal ... 

and...

... I've listed all the projects, finished or not :
16 !!! (without the new sets and projects waiting somewhere!) 







they are :
-Monks for "Monkth Challenge" (2 on the way., 10+ primed or begun..)
-Orcs for "Orctober" (2 couples begun, 1 set in the box..)
-Dwarves for "Dwarvember" (2 projects, one begun and one on the box!)
-Ship for "Pirates Islands" (finished, waiting for pictures)
-Whaling ship and pontoon + figures (almost finished, just oars to find or scratchbuild)
-Tombstone figures (2 sets finished, waiting for pictures)
-Old West women (2 small sets, finished, waiting for pictures)
- 5 West Town buildings : 2 finished (waiting pictures ... ), 2 started and  1 waiting for place on the desk!
-Market accessories (almost finished)
-Mounties (almost finished....)

That's crazy, is not it ? 
Do you think  that I'm mad, or is it normal ?

Pirates Islands : a new Ship !!

I've done a little conversion of a plastic Toy-ship , that I've got with a big Ship (repainted yet, but I must "shot" him again to have decent pictures !)

This time, I've done a step-by-step....

not the original boat... that's after the texturing ...

I've done some texture at the plastic

not perfect, I know..

primed and washed ...

not perfect too..

I've added a mast and a rudder


all the wood is just washed (brown wash) and added a sail

other view ..

details....

for the scale (Germania-Figuren Pirates)

 AND FINISHED !!!!
