Title: Devout Pics
Post by: joshuaslater on April 09, 2008, 07:13:54 AM
Post painted pics of your Devout forces here.  Use a direct link from photobucket or whatever place you store your pics.  If one day we get a new gallery, we can organize all the pictures accordingly.

The Dark Eyes and the Stalker are my faves, and I like all of'em.  I like playing the Devout, even when my nephews beat up on them!!

Hey, Thanks!  If you like my work, I do commissions, but I work slooooowly, and I won't do more than 4 figures at a time (a realistic assessment of my motivation levels :) ) .  Anyone is welcome to PM me if interested.

I believe that Alex posted pix of some really cool Elf Archers on Minirealms back in the day. If he hsn't posted them here somewhere maybe we can prevail on him to post them in the Elf section.

D'OH
Noticed the link and followed it. I should have known better than to think Elf. It is his Risen Archers that need to be duplicated and shipped to me. BTW Alex - I was using my Jedi Mind Trick voice so you are powerless to resist.

Heh... I've got a few painted Elves, but only an odd single model here and there (same with Firstborn).  My Devout army is the only one that ever got even close to being fully painted.

Incidentally, here's another pic (it's up in my displaced minis gallery, but I know some of you lazy gits can't be bothered to click on links...) with a story attached to it:

(http://www.displacedminiatures.com/images/img.1182091152730.JPG)

Basically, back in the day, I wanted a Devout Shadow Stalker for my army, but I couldn't be bothered to convert one for myself.  At the time, I was working at the local games store, so I staged a "Conversion Contest!" where the contest was to convert a Devout Shadow Stalker.  All entries became property of the store (read: mine!), but the prize was a 50$ gift certificate (don't know how I talked my boss into that...).  This was during the Target Chronopia years, when new sourcebooks were still being published, several years before Excelsior took over and released their excellent but way-too-big (in my opinion) Shadow Stalker. 

I just don't get the idea of 8-foot tall assassins... doesn't seem very sneaky...

Anyways, my friend Jason surprised me by entering the contest - he was (at the time) a die-hard 40K player, and he ONLY played Space Wolves.  I asked him about it and he explained that he just had a whim to convert something, so he based this guy on an old Reaper lizardman with a little bit of putty and some pointy plastic Dark Eldar bitz.  There are some fingerprint marks in the putty, but it was unquestionably the best entry (and there were only three or four entries), so he won the gift certificate and I got me a Shadow Stalker.  I painted it up quick and sloppy and I've been using it ever since.

There's another story about how he (the Stalker, not Jason) fell on his keys one time and lost me a game...

These are good Andy.  Are you like me where you send some stuff out to the paint service, but paint some armies yourself?

Neat color scheme. Like the effect on the feet!

 I have had these done for awhile now but did not have batteries.

 I would love to paint more but it takes me ages to get motivated.Painting services are great if you have some spare cash.The last miniatures that I painted were for the Inferno game.Another cool out of production game that I am trying to track down miniatures for.Also trying to paint up some Spinespur miniatures.

 Still need to learn how to take better pictures.

Nice job, I really dig it!  Just out of curiosity, did you brush a dark wash on the Harbinger or "dip" it?  Looks great either way.  Keep em coming!  :)

I like the pink lips and mouth.  Somehow makes the model look even more obscene... vaguely reminds me of a bad guy from the first Robocop movie, the one that got dropped into the vat of toxic waste and started melting (before he got splatted by a car!).

Reminds me in a good way!  I like your paintjob a lot!

Hi!

Thanks for the comments! I didnt dip him but got a bit carried away with the inks (ive been using Windsor and Newton artists ink as they are generally thinner than the GW variety)

Saying that I loved the GW chestnut brown ink but its not available anymore!

Here are some pics of my Tormented and some proxies for Risen Archers (which I got a long time ago when Target was still in business). I set these photos up after a Mordheim game. They are taken along side some of my miniatures from my Beastmen warband for Mordheim. They aren't the best pics of them, but what are you gonna do?

I never painted much more, but I've gotten a bug to work on stuff again. Maybe you will see more in the future.

Recently finished painting this Reaper proxy for the unholy champion.  Had a rough time with the standard, but it has paint on it, so stamping it complete!  Tried to make it look like actual faces that were stitched together, so some different skin tones in the individual sections.  Also my first attempt at wet blending on the cloak.  Takes a bit to get used to, but is a very good method.  Still need some work on my technique.  Drybrushing was my previous standard method, but sometimes looks too "chalky" for my taste.
