Mechanicus

Seems like my time for hobbying has reached a certain point when it's hard to start anything new. Luckily the new mechanicus kits gave me something fresh to think about. Here's the starters of a mechanicus posse with some artsy approaches and testosteronic angles!

Fishy fish chap looks scared. What a poor fella : (









Down here is two comparison photos of this particular critter.

And now something completely Gollum

As a student I usually try to live sparingly but often I lose control and purchase something utterly useless. I found this Gollum statue from an auction (What a magnificent sculpt!) and decided to make him a bit eye-friendly. At the point I do like how he's turning out. There's still a ton of work to do...

 Common Gollum with a fish. Ahh.
 Gollum with serious health issues (and a fish)
Fun fact: I glued some of my own hair to cover this poor fellows baldness.

I really should be doing my thesis...

Nurgle boys finished!





Finishing touches: few highlights and shadings + some washing. Also added gloss varnish over the base's wet parts, as well as to the rims. For some reason I love glossy bases. I also killed an old brush to make the reeds... Overall I think this is crazily messy group - just as I wanted.

The reason for not explaining the exact colors and amount is because I don't know them even myself. Using wet palette gives you the freedom to get goofy with the colors on the palette, but it's incredibly hard to describe how much you use certain ingredients. There's spots of colors all around the palette and mixed up pool of those various shades... This is the way I learnt to use colors - no borders. One big palette with freedom to mix anything with everything.


This defines the joy of painting. There's no right or wrong. Just a WAY to do.
Zen as f*ck.
