That gobbo is really angry now! Looks like the fish has gone again...

**Valkyrie**

Wow, I'm simply stunned at that.

**MrNuggets151**

^QFT, the highlights and shading is simply breath taking. How did you accomplish the green highlights on the metal with out 'over doing it'

:tup:

**Gorskar.da.Lost**

Damn those Skaven boy racers, always ruining a quite evening. Seriously, though, that's a really beautiful piece. Thinking of entering it into any Golden Demons?

**Caboose**

Yeah, I indeed like it as well. What I like in particular, is how you didnt OVER-highlight anything. That kills so many potentially cool paintjobs, and makes thing look cartoony. Nice work indeed.

**Infreak**

Fabulous work! Definitely worth any amount of time and effort put in to pulling off such a beautiful piece of work!

**Savis**

Have you actually SEEN some of the people who win golden daemons? Sure, some of them are fan-tastic, but some years, even I could place. This is already GD-level work.

I especially love the clear resin water.

**Linked**

Waw.. I'm speechless *Jaw dropping sound*

**Frostreaver**

Yeah. Stop selling yourself short and enter a GD now!

Excellent shading, brush control, highlighting, source lighting, and detail enhancing. Top it all off with a scenic base complete with water effects and you my friend have some serious GD material.

That aside, this is one of my favorite model/paintjobs! Congratulations, you win an internet!

**Nightwatch**

Just logged on to comment, when I was about to go to bed.
Excellent work. You really need to start a painting and modeling blog here on Dakka.

Great work, I look forward to seeing more!

How many hours did that take you?

**skbak**

That is hands down the nicest looking piece I've seen on dakka in my short tenure here.

**Agamemnon2**

Congratulations, that's pretty much a perfect 10 on technical proficiency. My only niggle is about composition, but if you're aiming at GD, using the standard base sizes is something you can't really avoid.

**brush_slip**

Perfection, PURE perfection my friend. I must say you have a talent. Great job. You should PM me your colors for the gold NMM, Its just fantastic.

It took about 2 months to complete (not counting sundays and saturdays). That new doomwheel model quite hard to work with, cus it must be painted unassembled, and its assembling was separate trouble...

Skaven engeneer must be really crazy to pilot THIS

yes you right, it painted for local competition that uses GD rules, Crystall hammer

gold NMM made using gw white and browns and some of valejo yellows, with little of watered down greens.

**Kilkrazy**

Fantastic work!

Let us know how you do at Crystall Hammer.

Are you going to use the model for games too?

today i won almost in every category where i entered (i was second in 40k single) , although head judge had strong dislike to me, and misjudged where she could.

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

Gratz Nakatan
stunning piece!

You must have done something REALLY bad to upset her enough to not give first place

that is an ace piece of work!
Made me think that there is an easy way to defeat Skaven, so if you could now do a Pied Piper of Hamlin your onto a winner

**g0atmilk**

I'm not sure if this inspires me to paint more and better my skills, or just give up... really very good!

**orkyben**

Uhhhm. Wow.

**lokilokust**

Absolutely stunning, and a great job on the water, too.

**Xca|iber**

You sir are a genius.

Superbly painted, and the whole setup just looks fantastic. Almost makes me wanna start up WHFB... almost.

**HadoukenAvenger**

I would gladly give you all my money and any money I make in the next year for the section of your brain that paints that GOD. DAMN. GOOD!

**skbak**

I find myself coming back to this piece a few times a week just so I can be jealous.

**HadoukenAvenger**

Yeah, helps remind you of why you should give up at everything, and then you have to strive to defy it!
