Lol! It's just going slow and putting away the brush when you eyes start seeing spots (other than the ones you're painting)!

The painting was just an Optivisor and a tiny little brush. No real skill just patience and doing a little bit at a time.

Optivisor - Check!

Tiny little brush - Check!

No skill - Double Check!!

Patience - Ocassionally misplaced but generally available

Awesome, looks like I have all the tools I need!

Thanks guys!!! 

It was fun to do something a little different. 

Yikes,

Those look so good that they'll probably give me nightmares tonight. 

You did a terrific job on those figures.  You put so much detail in a small space. I’ve seen them at my gaming store, and they aren’t large.  Thanks for posting.  

Great work Cliff. Beautifully painted and presented.

Hey Cliff, very nice paint work, and nicely presented. A very cool figure for display!

It's one on my favorite movie creatures. Thanks for sharing it. 

Thanks! The groundwork is just model railroad ballast and the grass Woodland Scenics static grass. Nothing special- it was on hand so I used it. Probably cost me about ten-fifteen bucks for a lifetime supply.

The armour I painted a darker metallic- steel I think and then dry-brushed it with a lighter metallic- silver or aluminum as best I remember. 

Care to share any of the secrets you used while painting them?

I really like the look of the mottling of the skin and how you did the armor.

Holy cow...

They are amazing...

I just keep scrolling through them to stare at them in wonder.  Something for me to aspire to.   The ground cover really brings them to life.

I've bumped up the priority of those materials on my wish list.  I admit that I already blew this month's budget for modeling or I would be placing orders now.  Any suppliers/brands you would recommend for things like scale gravel and grass?
