Which is fine, but it'd be nice if he spread the love around in future Wink

Be careful what you wish for...

The last time I spread my love around, she ended up with 9 months off work.   Grin

Now, who fancies a drink at the Invitational?   Tongue

I don't understand the hate.  I like the paintjob.

Hey Guys...

The first time i saw it, i dont liked, them i realized it was the colors+angle who screwed the photo...

Llew, are you the painter of Golem studios?

As i pointed in Dakka: the model is incredible, but the paintjob is not the beast to it. Dont get me wrong, the painter is clearly great, he only get wrong on colors choice... Blue dont "sound" dwarvish, and personally i never liked it with gold (i dont care about what theory says). The angle of the photo hides the back pack, the right side of the mini, and the legs behind the gun...

So, the miniature is great, the paintjob is well done, but is wrong in colors, and the angle ruin things... add that to a wait of at least a month, and you see why i am disapointed... Right now that disapointment has passed and what I see is a great miniature pointing the start of a great range. Bring it on Mantic...

PS: I was expecting something in line with "Nomads" from Infinity for the colors: Red + Silver/Dark Metalics...

Hey Gareew, im paiting my dwarves green and (dark) silver, just because i think it looks cool... So im guilty too  Cheesy

I dont think that green is a dwarf color, but i liked the scheme and decided to go with it (still trying to find some fluff excuse for it  Roll Eyes). So, im not saying "blue is bad for dwarfs", just that it is not a "classic" color for them, and i would never expect some company to use a iconic figure of a dwarf in blue  Smiley.

And after all, colors dont sound, right?  Grin

I'd love to say it has nothing to do with being Scottish, as I'm not particularly patriotic, but I quite often default to blue and white as a colour scheme.

My Ogres were pretty much tongue in cheek though.

The more I look at the mini, the more I like it.  But apart from the starter set, I'm not buying Warpath armies... Well until I get my KoW armies painted!

I have neither the technical skill nor the odd color tastes to be part of Golem.  I'll post some of my stuff once we get power back and I recover some spare hours to finish my army.

I see it's time to clear a spot on my paintdesk and get some more Dwarfs finished. Undecided Grin
