Wamp Hasslefree Competition - completed

I finally finished my entry for the Hasslefree competition and I'm pretty pleased with the results. I've been working on the model and base for a good few weeks now trying to make and paint it to the best of my abilities. For a first attempt at making a display base, I'm really pleased with the results. The base is made from cork while the tree is a combination of wire, plaster and green stuff with lichen as the leaves. I really want to practice using resin water some more, so that will be one of my goals over the summer while I'm home from university.

There are loads of amazing entries already in the Wamp Gallery and hopefully I'll receive some feedback on my model so I know what I can do to improve in the future. 

Wamp Hassle Free Competition - WIP

After a few months of being busy and not taking time out to practice my painting, I have finally decided to do something. My boyfriend brought me the Hassle free miniature; Gen, as a gift and announced Wamp was holding a competition. 

I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get some practice in and actually finish a project I started as well. I've decided to go all out (for me anyway) and make this a proper display piece with detailed base. I'm not going to spoil the surprise yet but here are some photographs of Gen. Instead of the stereotypical evil demon; with colour schemes of reds, blacks and just generally dark colours, I decided to make her more of a mythical creature from Greek mythology. Her hair style seemed to have a Greek feel to it so I went from there.

Artemis....Again

This is my 4th attempt at this model and I still can't get her right. Highlights are rubbish, she's too brown overall and I can't paint faces on 40mm models.
So after some careful consideration I'm going to strip her once again (throwing her out of the window was an option too) and re-do her once my painting skills have leveled up. For now I'm going to work on other models, so hopefully I'll have an update about those soon.

Artemis - WIP

This is my 4th attempt at painting this model as mentioned in a previous post. ~ here. I decided to go for a darker skin tone using Citadel paints; Mournfang Brown, Bugman's glow and Cadian Fleshtone, which was kindly lent to me by Mountain of Metal. I've still got to do more on her skin but I'm pretty pleased with how she is turning out. 

Hopefully I'll managed to get her finished this time, so wish me luck!
