It is a lovely old miniature of the old school. I really enjoyed painting it. I tried to use the style familiar from the older techniques of painting miniatures. I especially liked to recall that when the base was green. :)
Well done Alex! Your commentary was brief this week, but I suspect the many fans of Oldhammer among the Challengers will join me in saying "cool"!! An axe and a mug of ale - that's one happy dwarf. Your brushwork is excellent, but I have to agree the bright green base really helps bring out the true Oldhammer vibe from this figure. Great work, a very nice and tidy 5 points for you!
Lovely paintjob on a lovely sculpt! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Samuli
DeleteOnly one figure? Has someone kidnapped our Alex and replaced him with an impostor? ;)
ReplyDeleteLovely old school work :)
Oh, it's much more difficult - before painting miniatures my evil twin brother, and now I paint. :)
DeleteI also like the old school :)
A fantastic job Alex! These sort of paint jobs in White Dwarf were what got me into the hobby originally!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I was inspired by old magazines and a rulebooks
DeleteHe's been kidnapped by a new baby Tamsin! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat work Alex. It's always great to see Bugman getting some press.
Thank you, Curt. In ancient miniatures are so many things that are not new, and they are nice and not scary to look at. Then the dwarves were dwarves, and not a bunch of muscles with a beard
DeleteNow that really hits the spot. Great work on an old classic!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anna. I'm glad that you've seen this work worthy.
DeleteGreat job on an old classic, Alex! He looks mighty fine and the red/yellow livery sets him off well! ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I've been thinking how to make this miniature interesting.
DeleteGoblin Green base with green sawdust flock - now THAT'S old skool!
ReplyDeleteGreat work, Alex, and so good to see some more Oldhammery goodness! Age of Who...? don't care, give me the old figs any day of the week!
Thank you. The "age is not clear who" in our country almost did not play, so eventually everyone will have a beautiful army in the old school style.
DeleteGood to see more classic figures getting the love, great work

Thank you, ian, I also really like these miniatures.
DeleteOld hammer rocks and this is a perfect representation of the era. Bugmans is one of the great characters from the time. Now then, where are his rangers?
ReplyDeleteThey are coming! :)
DeleteOne of the nicest Painted Bugmans I have ever seen.
ReplyDeleteIt's too good to be true :)
