DBX Publicity

YndijDBX

Mantic games are using a miniature that I painted in their publicity shots today.  I painted the Yndij Reaver model on the right of the image above, the guy with the orange mane.

My painting isnt nearly as tight as studio painters  – I doubt that I will ever have anything like that sort of patience and skill level – but I am very pleased that what I produce is good enough for shots like this.

      Thanks Frank. There is quite a jump in technical skill between my painting and the models that come from the studios. That doesnt mean that there is necessarily anything wrong with my work of course, its just painted to different criteria.

      Thanks for the feedback!

      I am happy with the quality of my output, but there is always room to improve. My work isnt as “tight” as a lot of peoples. That doesnt mean that its necessarily crap or anything, just that its different.

      I fear that I may have sounded a bit needier/insecure than I intended to in that post 🙂 Genuine thanks for the kind feedback though.

      Thanks pagangerbil.

      The Mantic guys want to have a few more variant paint jobs on the models available, so they asked me to come up with a few things that they might be able to use. The Yndij shown is one of them.

      Thanks.

      Its possible that some of the models might get into images in one of the upcoming DB rulebooks too, which would definitely be fun.

      Ill post if it happens 🙂

    You’re too modest mate. In regularly complimented on my models and your stuff makes me want to have my army in its box from embarrassment!
