  Yesterday I finished this pair. My сustomer "called" them ugly and I've  done my best to make those old but very rare miniatures more attractive.

Lord of Tzeentch on Disc. Limited edition

   It was a really difficult and interesting work. Difficult - because Аnа set up a very high standard level of the painting this miniature. Two of her lords are a masterpiece. While working, I wanted to do something good enougt to "stay close" to her works.  Equipment (stick, belt) of this character led me to the idea about snakeskin-toxic theme which I used some time ago for painting  Eldar Wave Serpent.

Serpentarium


Not so long time ago I became a member Serpentarium - newborn organization of four active Russian artists in the world of miniatures (I, Ringil, Ravenswood and Ookami). Here's a link to our newborn child:


   I hope that you will see there not only ongoing works of each participant but a lot of exclusive collective works. And we have a lot of plans for such projects!

Forge Guardians. Confrontation.

  I've finished two dwarfs from Confrontation today . I tried to use many textures here: on leather  gloves and helmet, backpacks and other clothes. I didn't choose any color scheme previously at this time, just painted as I like. And I like the result :).
 So, the first:

Empire General. Step-by-step. Part1: Horse.

 First of all I want to appologize for all grammar mistakes in this text. It was really hard for me  to translate so many words in English. But I hope that anyone who wants to understand this tutorial will do it :). 
  There is an interesting section - "Gym" on a russian forum WARFORGE where I regularly spend my time. Here young artists paint their work under a patronage of more experienced colleagues. One day I've decided to take two "students" to share what I can and what I've learned over three years in this hobby. But I've decided to change form of training: not just to give advice but to paint with a student on-line. Because, in my opinion, in this way I would show what I'm talking about. And we must paint the same miniature.
    With my first "student" Alexander we've chosen a mounted Imperial General. I've pulled my General  "from the grave" because he was bought for a bits and much of his equipment (such as all right hands and weapons) was "built out".  And here you can see a history of birth of 
two our Generals.
    As a result of our job - I have a very detailed guide how I've painted this miniature. Here is a Part 1: Horse, and then I hope it will be Part 2: General.  

 На форуме WARFORGE, где я периодически обитаю, есть интересный раздел - "Тренажерный зал", где начинающие художники красят свою работу под патронажем более опытных коллег. Вот и я набралась смелости и решила взять себе двух учеников, чтобы поделиться тем, что  умею, чему научилась за эти годы погружения в хобби. Единственное, я решила изменить немного форму обучения и не просто давать советы, а красить параллельно вместе с учеником, так как, по моему мнению, здесь можно хотя бы продемонстрировать то, о чем говоришь. Миниатюра для покраски в этом случае должна быть одинаковая.
   И вот, с одним из "учеников"  мы остановились на миниатюре конного Имперского генерала.  Я своего в буквальном смысле  вытащила "из могилы", так как предназначался он на битцы, и многое из его комплектации (как все правые руки) уже было "пристроено". Здесь наша тема в форумной тренажерке, где можно посмотреть, как постепенно и совместно рождаются два Генерала.
  В итоге получился очень подробный гайд покраски миниатюры, который я и решила опубликовать в своем блоге.

After an unexpected health problem I've returned to a favorite hobby. And these are the two completed Necromancers, executed in a same style.
Footed:


Mounted:
Bonus pic of mounted necromancer :)

And as addition I painted some blood stains on my Akshasa. I hope it will add a little bit brutal to him.
