From QuinnM - Age of Sigmar (20 points )





QuinnM-AgeofSigmar-15 points


Hello this is my first time participating in the painting challenge. Thank you Curt for putting it on. I am relatively new to the hobby I started painting about 6 months ago so I am looking forward to feedback. I decided to start off with a few Age of Sigmar models as that is what got me into panting.

  




3x28mm foot@ 5 Points = 15 Points


First up we have the GW model of the month, a Skaven storm vermin. It was a quick paint job. I realized there is a tiny bird skull on its waist in the process. Skull one down I think?





Up next we have the little gryph-hound Balthazar from the savers of Cinderfall box. I finished the rest of the models of this unit a week ago but left this as a simple model to start off with.




lastly we have a Troll (old world). This was on my pile of primed models to paint over the challenge, but when i learnt we have a skull count i panted it up early. so add a second to the skull count here. 






Also I saw my dads(ByronM’s)post about needed to get something in before me. I had to pant the troll to at least have more points before his next post.( I am going to act like I don't see the unit of germans he has painted on his desk and hope this goes up before).

First, Merry Christmas and welcome to the Challenge Quinn! For someone who has only been painting for 6 months your brushwork is amazing. The talent for the brush must run in the family. :)

As a disgruntled old-school Old World fan all I can say that the less said about The Age of Sigmar the better, BUT your storm vermin and gryph hound are great, especially the armour on the Skaven and the fade effect on coat of the hound. 

And to mollify my delicate (and nonsensical) sensibilities you provide an excellent Old World troll for us to admire. Great work on his skin - a nice departure from the typical blue and green that you often see.

I'm thinking that the troll is probably at least 54mm so we'll score his accordingly. 

Great work Quinn. More please! :)

  2. Welcome to Challenge Quinn! I really like the troll, just 6 months painting, huh? Only one advice, try to make neat base trims, they make the whole model look much better and more finished. Keep up the good work.
