Radagast finished (+ tutorial)

Here's the next guy I painted up from the hobbit set.  I tried to use as many of the browns as I could from the GW range and I didn't have a guide to go with... so this is what I ended up with.  Neat model, not sure if I like the pose, but whatever.

Savage Orc Big Boss (+ Tutorial)

Here's that single sprue Savage Orc Big Boss that I showed a couple weeks back.  I painted him up with my rig so that I could film the whole process (shown at 4x speed in the video below).  I have a new lens, so everything is nice and close up, but I'm having some issues keeping everything in frame.  I'll have to work on that.

Anyway, cool model, and I followed the painting guide from White Dwarf (issue with dakka jet on the cover).  My guide follows the same paints and the instructions are at the bottom of the post.

DIY Painting rig - how to

I've posted some videos where I've used a special "painting rig" that I made. Up until now I hadn't described what it was, but basically is a Gimbal mount. Here's a video showing how to make your own for about $10.
