I have decided its about time I added in a list to track my achievements as well as trying to regularly update my gnoblog. I have highlighted in blue the achevments I have so far.

The ogre turned out nicely. Although the pants and the stone could use some highlights or a drybrush in order to bring them up to the level of the rest of the model.
And also, moldlines are gross.
I like the cockatrice. I think the colors work well for it. However, it desperately needs some washes.

If by RAW, you mean "Reg06's Audacious Whims", then you'd be right.

Like what kind of wash for the Cockatrice?


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
What sort of look do you want to go with? Dirt and mangy, like it got dragged out of the forest? Do you want to focus on those bright colors, and the contrast of the body parts? Something else? You have the colors down nicely, but it is such a large and textured model that it needs some depth.

I was trying to go for a veiny look around th ribs.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
I finally decided to go with fisherman theme for my army. The idea for my guys was to give them waders and a toboggan along with some seaweed and barnacles here and there. By the way this is the second time sculpting with green stuff so forgive me if it looks horrible. If you have any advice let me know.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
Looking good, especially liking the psychadelic cockatrice  :>D

Do you mind if I steal the hat design for one of my own?

Thanks

So far I have almost finished one of my fisherman ogres. Still trying to think of something else to put on them to make them look more "fisherman" like. Anyway without further ramblings here are a couple pictures of my mostly completed ogre fisherman.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
He is sure looking good. And if you want him to be easily recognized as a fisherman, give him a fishing rod or a net :] Or fishes hanging in a hook. :]

Anyways his looking good!
I just want to say that English ain't my mother tongue, so it is far from perfect and I can just hope that you guys can understand me. And feel free to point out my spelling errors or major grammatical mistakes :]
Thanks, I was going to put some fishes on his belt but they are hard to find in the right size and I can't scuplt something that complex.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
In the mean time while converting my army I have decided to take a break and paint my necromancer I bought a while ago. Let me know how I did on it.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
I have decided to take Vampire Counts as my secondary army and will be posting some painted zombies as well as more of my fishermen ogres soon.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
Finally got around to posting some of my ogres and zombies. Hope you guys like them.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
Nice work :) really like the whole beanie cap concept.

Anyways, have you tried using tinypic for posting pics? When I post pics, I usually takes several photos of the same object, then choose which one is best. Then I edit in paint - just to rotate the picture straight and to frame out the background (cause: do you really need to see my dirty desktop? :P). There I also edit picture size etc. Might be something for you to use? I've found that tinypic is really worth the extra effort, alot more pleasant to view :)

If you want, you can check out my gnoblog for a sample. Just want to show you how I post pictures and how they look - not to brag about my painting skill (do I even have any? No. Michelangelo would punch me in the face.)

Danne

Think of it as a magic glove, like Michael Jackson use to wear, you could even model your character up grabbing at his crotch.

Finally finished converting a unit of bulls. Critiques and comments welcome. Anyway here are the pics.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
Been quite some time since I updated my gnoblog, so I will start with my giant, To keep with the ocean theme I game him a hat and gutplate with belt included like the lads so without further ado here he is in all his ogreness. The only thing is i have to finish basing him but that is for another day.




Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
Here is a shot of my slowly increasing army so far. I will post my thundertusk next, all I need to do is finish the riders.



Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!

Thanks guys and you are correct the belt and hat is sculpted from green stuff and the gutplate is from the thundertusk kit.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
Thanks I plan on posting my new gorger when I get the chance.


Keep Calm and Praise the Sun!
I saw this cheeky fella' on the Gnoblar Hero thread, but have been crazy busy at work so didn't get the chance to comment.

Where is the crab from, or did you GS him? If you did the latter then I shall be watching for more regular updates from you sir, as that is some darn good work!

The Little fella is looking very striking and very original; this is some great work here. Please post up some more of your ogres if you are still working on them. If the lil' guy is anything to go by then your latest additions must be pretty awesome!

G_H

Unfortunatley I didn't sculpt it, it came from an old Pirates of the Caribbean Megablox set but, thanks for the complement. I only wish I had the skill to sculpt stuff like that. For now I am working on my newest gorger and on of my ogres so hopefully I will get them completed soon.
