Noobie painter here but this is my best so far. See not everyone is a Michaelangelo or a Mistress of Mini's!

This be Mr.Snikrot Killer of Broadsides, Amputater of Terminator, and the Decapitator of Obliterators!

I think that is a really cool paintjob, but I am not sure.
Please tell the that takes your pictures not to be so stupid as to place the model on an ugly-ass painting mat and add a mouse for flavor.
Please tell him to take the next pictures with the model standing on a blank piece of paper with the paper bending up behind the model.

For a newbie painter, youre off to a very promising start. Your detail work is good- like the goggles lenses, there are many veteran eldar players that cant do their spirit stones nearly that well

Im honored So far out of the work you have posted, which is impressive, I really like those diorama like trays. Definantly gonna try to find a tutorial on them or pester you to make one, because I am sure im not the only one blown away by them.

Studderingdave that warboss you painted, the details mesh so seamlessly its almost unreal or I guess in this case it is almost real looking.

Wow I sure hope you were joking about being so rude.

wow those green skins are great, Aldmhac. you need some confidence! buy it from me

And best of all it looks like the barrels are drilled out! WHOHOOOOO!!!!!

Nice stuff

Wow, thanks guys ! That makes me feel really good. I painted the two goblins for Golden Deamon but I didnt make first cut. I love painting green skins. Thanks for your comments guys, they mean alot to me.

Throwing my gauntlet into the ring........

Great convertions! That is one great army!

LittleLeadMen- very nicely done. Usually I hate 2nd ed boys but you've even made those guys look good

Agreed

@LittleLeadMan- That is a propa group of orks you got there. GREAT WORK!!

I figured I'd throw my hat in the ring on this one. Just a boy I have been working on for the paint scheme of my army. No details or highlighting yet but shading is coming along nicely and getting familiar with painting.

I've still got one left to go, a biker with nothing but his cybork body, but I thought it was time to post my Nob Biker group with warboss in side car. I would like any critique you may have on the painting, but please couple it with tips on how to improve or techniques I may be leaving out/unkowledgeable about.

All nobs have actual Nob Torsos and some of the nobs are even the nobs from the nob box. I have a torso, as well as a finished bike, just need to prime and paint the boy.

All nobs aslo have cybork bodies. I tried to use a few of the cybork heads to represent this.

In addition my warband is a mix of Bad Moons and Evil Sunz (The Bad Sunz) nand as such the warboss and waaagh banner has the Zag of the bad moonz and the Bosspole has the sun of the evil sunz on it.

that SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still loving this thread!

LittleLeadMen - That army has a lot of great personality! Well done. I really love your 'LilKong' Dreadnought!

Littleleadmen-yea, those are some of the nicest bad moonz Ive ever seen. The yellow is so bold on everything. How the hell did you get the yellow to lay down so well?

Very nice collection of bikes. Where did you get the rounded bases?

How did you do your metalic red on your bikes (boy with uge choppa)?

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!

The Metallic read is actually a Reaper paint (I know, shame on me) stock number 18110. It's kind of a bitch to paint with though because it's a really thin paint and looks pink if you put it on direct. You really need to put down a layer of Boltgun metal for it to come out right. I also drybrushed it on the warboss' bike to give it a more metallic look, but I'm really not good at drybrushing. I always seem to have either too much or too little paint on the brush.

As for the roudned bases, those are the stock bases which came with the bikes. I wish I had the confidence in my conversion skill to modify the bike bodies themselves but that may be a task for my second nob biker group, that or a bunch of converted AOBR Deffkoptas, I can't decide.

Since i just recently started doing my first serious ork models i though i could share. Im actualy quite proud of the result (doesn't happen often) Sorry about the bad lighting was in a hurry.
