Thought I'd post what I did with my IG guy. This objective marker was my vision for the project from the get-go. Glad I figured out how to comply with the comp rules first & was then able to transform it into something I could use.

Thanks guys. Kind of a reflection of the current state of the weather here in Wisconsin. I am pleased with the way it turned out. Got to experiment with some new basing techniques, the snow, etc.

Here is a bit of progress on my guy. I used the lasgun to try out a couple new things- NMM bronze and wood grain. I learned quite a bit during the process. This has been a blast so far.

Um... I'll go get on that then.


I've been a slack arse lately. Haven't done much in the way of anything recently. Maybe if I can unstick myself from the computer chair then I might go attempt to get something in the way of pictures taken.

I'm happy with how the wood grain came out, but I need to find a better way to photograph my models. I spent about an hour on that right arm highlighting with three different shades of red but it looks like a simple red basecoat with a wash in the picture.

Welcome to my life. My models look much different in person. You should see how low some of my best models scored...:p
But who cares about scores.

Hi all! I just wanted to say thanks to Bebop for putting together this contest. Having just picked up a pile of guardsmen I figure this would be a great incentive to get my paint scheme figured out. I've got one guardsmen done and I just need to figure out my photography setup and I'll post him up on the thread.

Post by: WinterHound


Well, my photography needs some work and turns out that our camera doesn't have great settings for close up pictures. Here's the trial photo run with what I have. The camera angles aren't the greatest but I'll take it for my first attempt. It's amazing how different the models can look through the eye of a lens.

Hey guys! Thought I would finally get around to finishing mine and upload on the last day...
I am not 100% happy with the final product, but hey, how can you be when there is so many great entries into the competition! Well done guys!
His fatigues are different to his Lasgun because I wanted the gun to look like it had been custom sprayed or wrapped, and I thought I would go for some Oakley style military boots on him, not seen that yet!








Thanks guys!

Alright, I'm convinced, I'm going to see if I can polish up my pics with better lighting...

Edit: OK judges, I have cleaned up a couple of small details that the camera can see but my old eyes cannot and took some better pics.

Like this one:


All five pics can be found at the tag IG challenge final-final and the images all have the "IG Challenge Final" text.

Thanks again for hosting this and for all of the inspiration I got from the other participants!

There goes my day of Counter-Strike I had planned.

Late as it is (I hope not too late), I got to do some more work and take a couple (not too good) pics tonight.

I'm far from convinced with how they turned out, but even if thrice better, I would still feel I'd be falling short of such an outstanding display... Awesome jobs, all around.

Edit: Spoilered the old pics, better ones to be uploaded in an upcoming post.
Spoiler:
Photos are not the best either, I'll try to improve on those tomorrow.





Cheers to all, and good luck.

Well, just as I always do I waited to do the bulk of the work on the last day, shoot! Anyway, I had built a pirate-themed base but if I don't get it painted up in time here are the pictures I will be submitting. Ahoy, Matey!

Didn't think I'd get this guy finished up but here's how he ended up. I'm happy with how the base turned out but I'll still have to play around with the freehand designs on the shoulders. A lot of little things I didn't get done but considering he's really a test model for my overall army I can't complain. Pictures ended up a little bit better but I'm still got a lot to learn about getting close up pictures particularly around the face and still having to play around to get the camera to focus properly.

There are a heap of really excellent entries in this comp. Glad I'm not one of the judges.

Same guys, better pics.

Still inadequate, not up to the master's quality of the entries displayed so far, but good I guess, on he other hand, for a first try.

Guard N° 1









Guard N° 2







C&C are always welcome.

Again, great show everybody, and thanks Bebop for running the Challenge, good call!

Cheers,

The third time's lucky, and in so I finally managed to get some better pics, though AFTER the Comp had officially ended!

(Not minding that, I'd still post them here, just for kicks and C&C. All remaining flaws are the painters alone)





Cheers to all, and good luck!

Likewise, I'm not going to let the end of the competition stop me from finishing my guardsman to what I had originally envisioned, it's been too much fun! Here is the base so far, I was considering adding either a parrot hovering over his shoulder or a tentacle about to attack the poor sod from under the dock. I'd also like to go back and add some more detail to the model, as well as attempt to paint another design on the blank shoulder pad.
