So for my second entry I chose to do a Goth force by footsore miniatures
I really love footsore miniatures the details are so nice and sharp.
I did get a bit carried away and on Boxing Day painted from about 9.30 am through to about 1.30am the next morning
I have to admit I am envious of most of you who write so many great
Things about your minis and why you are doing them, I’m not really that great at that part
So I hope the pictures show my passion for painting.
These figures are going to a friend who I did a swap painting for his minis.
I then sold his minis to help raise funds to build tiny homes in Ukraine.
Also thought I’d say for photos do don’t use any programs to enhance
The photos I just use an A1 white piece of light card bent at a 90 degree bend
With the LED light I use for painting, the camera is an older digital cannon
Below a couple of quick shots of the figures together
Ok so we have
31 x 28mm cavalry @10pts = 310pts
44 x 28mm foot @ 5pts = 220
Total 530pts
The one thing I know when I see a post from you Kent is that I'll be staggered by your output. I shouldn't be after all this time, especially talking and painting together every week, yet still it happens.
This is an astonishing amount of stuff, as much because of the consistency of high quality as anything. The amount of colour variation and all the shields just adds to the wow factor.
Well done indeed mate. 530 points catapults you to the top of the chart, ending my overnight reign of terror in one post. Love it!
Cheers,
Millsy
Fabulous colors and prodigious out put Kent.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bruce, with so many colors the trick is not to miss anything out
DeleteNice pointsbomb mate, lovely colourfull painting as always!
ReplyDeleteHey Sanders thanks
DeleteWow! Those Footsore Goths are some of my favourite figures. Love the colours you have gone with, and the horse colours. Amazing.
ReplyDeletecheers Dux, I've lost count of how may footsore minis I've painted but i never get tired of them.
DeleteThe machine is back! Excellent work as always Kent, quite amazing how you keep up this quality in this quantity. I know we will see more, and I look forward to it!
ReplyDeletethe crazy thing is i [paint like this all year long not just for the challenge, I keep telling myself I need to slow down. maybe one day will.
DeleteThe Kiwi point bomber has made a triumphant return! Fab work mate - I'll miss our paint & chats this year!
ReplyDeleteYes what happened It's always great to catch up over the paint and chats. and cheers as well.
DeleteThat's quite a points bomb, especially given the quality and uniformity of your work. I'm in awe.
ReplyDeleteThat's a right lovely Goth force. What rules are you planning to use it for?
thanks Robert, they are based for both Saga and lion rampant at this stage.
DeleteGobsnacked by these - superb brushwork!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mate glad you like them
DeleteStunning speed-quality balance. Love the colors. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI was glad to be able to move these across the table and get onto the next lot, I'm really wanting to get to my own figures
DeleteBeautiful work. I always love those dragon(?) standards that look like they would have flapped menacingly in the wind.
ReplyDeleteThanks Brian, the standard was quite enjoyable to paint, they always look great actually
DeleteBoth the quality and quantity are astounding.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny I never really think about the output and quality to much until we do these challenges as it's pretty close to my normal. But the comments do make me appreciate that maybe I am slightly crazy
DeleteI’ll just hang up my brushes now! Your Boxing Day marathon exceeds my challenge goal in points and is done to a waaay higher standard.
ReplyDeleteAmazing stuff!
Hopefully you will just be inspired to continue, you're looking at 20 years of perfecting speed and quality, painting a minimum of 3-4 hors weekdays and 8 on weekends. just kept working on colors and timing. Glad you like them.
DeleteBonkers output, nice colour palette
ReplyDeleteCheers Jamie
DeleteVery colourful and inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThanks my friend
DeleteStaggering output again Ken and all quality - so well done
ReplyDeletethanks so much
DeleteGreat quantity and quality there Ken! Not sure how you manage to stay on track for that long at once, but keep it up!
ReplyDeleteThanks Byron, I just lose track of time, oh and lots of stretching and a few eye breaks as well
DeleteBeautiful brushwork Ken and a VERY worthy cause.
ReplyDeleteThanks Curt much appreciated coming from a master artist like yourself.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking Goths!
