Sorry for that... it's been a very long day, and as they say... it ain't quite over yet.
Anyway, among other things, I managed to get the colossal painted!
I tried very hard to keep the colors consistent with the other constructs, such as the Stalkers, Necro Knights, Ushabti, Titan, and the Sphinxes.
You might also notice that the patterns on the 'cloth' are the same as the ones down in the Tomb level. It was a lot easier to paint them on the miniature!
I will probably add some more tidbits after Games Day here and there. A bit more freehand in some places.
Here is a "Colossal" view. A "glory" shot :-)
The game was on while I was painting the big guy. Baseball was also watching the game, and he seems very excited that Alexi has hit a 2 run bomb to extend the lead to 7 runs and put the Sox back into a 1st place tie.. However, Alexi appears to be less excited...
When you start posting pictures of Baseball watching baseball, that's when I know you've had entirely too little sleep. :D
ReplyDeleteBaseball loves baseball!
DeleteSuperb job on the entire Tombkings range - cant wait to see more..;o)
ReplyDeleteThanks! A screaming skull catapult is coming in about an hour...
DeleteVery nice work. I like the extreme change in basing between the top-side models and the interior models. That's a nice touch for such a large setup with such distinct areas.
ReplyDeleteThanks! It is also supposed to be a "code" for what type of unit that it represents.
DeleteWhen I learned that Egyptian armies had a scrict caste system, I envisioned only the highest ranking units being allowed in the tomb itself.
For instance, I have a big unit of tomb guard planned that goes in the lower level, surrounding the sarcophagus of Pseusenes himself.
My scouting units of horse archers will be based like the "above ground" units.
Very nice! You must be getting even LESS sleep than I am this week. And I KNOW how little sleep I'm getting trying to get ready for Saturday! See you at AoP! ~Mikal
ReplyDeleteSleep? I am not familiar with that concept. I suspect it is one of those "urban legends" that you hear about. Simply an internet rumor...
DeleteI'd love to know how you made the bow?
ReplyDeleteIf you look a few posts before this one, you will see all the WIP images of this piece, and how it was sculpted (including the bow!).
DeleteCheers!
