Interesting stuff I found via facebook today...

@konrad - oooooh, i like. I particularly enjoy the post-industrial scabby wall in the background Really adds to the decrepit old-school grimdark feel

I know! I am so jealous. What a great nerd-cave!

I found this cool thing on Twitter today, which reminded me of some of our regulars' interests:

random threadomancy, but hey ho

Colours. These are colours. Used well.



Kiril Kanaev, somewhat obviously. Holy cow the man can paint. His style gets closer and closer to a classical artist every time I see a new piece by him.

Cor blimey.

Is that a model?

Beautiful work either way.

[me_in_japan]

Yes, that’s a model. There’s 360degree shots on Facebook somewhere. It’s all purple round the back…

More threadomancy, because you can never have too many pictures of minis. Today: a bucket. But not just any bucket. This bucket is painted better than anything you ever have or ever will paint.

Behold! The bucket of shame!



The bucket of shame is by Darren Han, and is part of some work in progress he's doing. I just saw it on the Eavier Metal group over on Facebook and thought it was worth sharing. Enjoy your day

This bucket is painted better than anything you ever have or ever will paint.

'Better painted than anything by Prim' is a pretty low bar to set.

I'm assuming that this is some zenithal, oil shaded, wet blended non-non-metallic metal effect? (Or do you just have a very poor opinion of the painting talent on this forum?)

That is a pretty bucket though.

[me_in_japan]

It's NMM, yes. Regular paints, I believe. Painted using only white and black paint, with probably a smidgeon of blue for interest. Essentially, despite looking a lot like one, it is not, in fact, a teeny tiny real polished metal bucket.

*Edit* bleurgh. When you zoom in there's yellows and purples in there too. I have no idea how you'd even start to think about painting something like that.

Gorram bucket

Found this and thought it was pretty cool. Get to the choppa!
