Now, I realize "worst" is a bit judgy... I want this to be a thread for laughs, and not necessary a place to be mean. I am definitely going to go take photos of my son's paint jobs (first one at age 2!) and post here, because THEY'RE FREAKIN' FUNNY! So. What's your absolute favorite horrible paint job? Here's mine:

A year or two ago a friend started up a Dwarf Kings of War army. He got a nice, big lot off of ebay. The absolute, hands-down favorite paint job of the lot was this guy. After he took the photo, he shamefully confessed that he painted over him. I was devastated. What a hero! What a centerpiece! Can you imagine the fear you would strike into the hearts of your foes, if THIS GUY was your lynchpin? JUST LOOK AT HIS STARE OF DEATH!

Yikes! That's a good example of why I warn people off from even trying to paint eyeballs on 95% of the minis out there. I'll look around, don't know what pics I have (lost my entire 10+ years of photos a few years back). Hmmm...my worst...

Ha, I love it...will have to post some if my old high elves.

Your right, that freaked me out.....
i`d give him the win just so i dident have to watch thouse eyes anymore!

My first models was high elfs but i threw them away after a year.
Flat colours on my high elfs yes, but still.
White primer, blue cloth, a fleshcolour on the hand and face plus a layer of ink as that is all that was avalible from gw back in 02.

Then went to grey nights as they was pretty easy to get a good result whit metalic drybrush, so i can realy say that i had a bad paintjob as my first start.
Still have my GK but like i said, it wasent hard to make a decent tabletop quality on them, so no point in showcasing them.

but yes, eyes is hard to do and even harder as you pass 30s and your hands start to shake...........

I also cannot lay claim to this masterpiece, but ISN'T IT SO GOOD? I suspect this is the above dwarf's space marine brother.
