Celebrating…again: This time with something to look at!
Hello everyone,
here I was, boasting about my first 500 views only two weeks ago, and now the number has grown to a thousand! Still not blockbuster territory admittedly, but I am happy nonetheless! Thanks for showing interest, people!
In celebration, I’ll show you one of my earlier attempts at painting, back when I could not imagine that either the models or my paintjobs for them could ever get any more awesome than this (I imagine you all recognise this gentleman):
Ah, those were the days! I am still quite proud of the effect on his sword, though!
Anyway, I promise that I won’t make such a fuss again until the numbers have grown truly spectacular 😉
Thanks for looking and stay tuned for more! Next regular update on Wednesday.

Hah! I have fond memories about that miniature and his compatriots. The blending on the sword is quite nice!

Haha, who isn’t in love with these guys? If you had told me back then of the kits we have nowadays, it would simply have blown my mind. On a related note, I fear I couldn’t reproduce that blending effect, even if I wanted to. And all without airbrush to boot. Ah, the halcyon days of my youth… 😉
