some of my first ever painted stuff

most of the lord was done by a freind but did some touch up work

your going to want to use a white backdrop with mini's, have an overhead light source (desk lamp or the like) and turn the flash off

if its a digital camera it will have a macro setting you want that on so you can take detailed pictures of small things. I might not be called macro but something like that.

yeah i was havin trouble getting decent pics of the stuff

pretty nice paint job.

I'd definitely try and get some better photos. It's hard to give constructive crit and comments with really blurry photos.

Follow wash-away's advice and see what you can get ^_^.

Oh and Welcome to Dakka!

I will help with pictures

Adding alittle red and calling it your own isn't kosher, TT.

That will be addressed in person.

is that blood red or blazing orage?

those look good but try and redo the pics. id feel bad if i said those were nice looking and then had to retract my statement lol

TT can't operate a digital camera so here are some better pics

I started this mess.....

I traded to TT and here's what I see.

bolters need to be drilled out
figs need mud wash
bases flocked

+points,
This should look great!!!

Base em up, then let's have a game!!!

You might want to try to get away from the drybrushing on the metals, and instead paint them completely and then go for a black or brown wash. For example, mithril silver followed by a wash of Badab Black, and then Shining Gold followed by a wash of Devlan Mud. It will look much nicer.

Aside from that, great job for your first figs!

I have yet to paint any myself, but as far as I can tell not bad for your first time.

the dry brushin was done by old man ultra but most of the red was and will be done by me

Please bear in mind I was trying to get done in world record time to play Maelstrom of Gore in Apoc.

TT will improve these guys with my "iron" hand on top of him,

A quick update with mud

ok yea those looks good man. nice paint job. they almost look dirty the way you painted them, and thats a good thing

First try huh? Nice.

a full army pic coming in the next few weeks lots to do still

i will be selling this army soon 80 fully painted based and washed khorne berzerkers along with 1 rhino and defiler and terminator lord if any one is intersted pm me.
