I cant really make much out. The picture is a bit blurry. There is a tutorial on dakka that can help out in picture taking

Hey now thats a pretty NOICE looking warboss man. That will look sweet on a table top. My only gripe is either drill the gun barrels or paint a black circle on there, so it looks like the bullets come out from somewhere.

The bit stuck on the side of England. Wales isn't it.

Darn, I wanted to be the first to say " drill the gun barrels out". Its quite good . The photo is still working against you , its got a yellow cast to it. You need to change the white balance or run it through photoshop. As far as I can tell the painting is a bit to clean and shiny, a wash of black or dark brown would help.

Yea you can tell the lighting is from a lamp. They usually do that yellowish cast.
ALSO Drilling out gun barrels is a serious pet peeve of mine lol. Some people are rules lawyers, some have to nit pick tatics, other like to harass new comers with bad paint jobs.... mine is gun barrels lol.

I think all newer digital cameras have a white balance that you can set to battle the yellow lighting if you don't have editing software.

The boss looks good! KC is right about the barrels but before you get your tutorial finalized I would get the pic problem in check If you need help just shoot me a PM.

Take the pictures outside. And use a blank piece of paper as background.

Yea that works really good actually. Obviously you need a nice day out, but the sun is perfect lighting (who would of thought eh?) and the white paper makes the camera focus on your minis, instead of random rocks,houses,ants walking by.
