Here are some of my Dwarfs (deathroller in the pipeline)






Opinions please!

pretty decent paint jobs all round, but a bit more variety in hair colour would have been more interesting to look at, more fun to paint and easier to tell who had which skills once they get going...

only the Slayers should have REALLY ginger hair... my Longbeards all have black, brown, grey or white hair... my Blitzers and Runners are blond because they are younger..

just my $0.02

need some highlights too

clean paintjob

I really like the background too for taking the pictures! I agree with the hair color variety as well...I know when I painted my dwarves I needed different colors to keep my sanity...pretty solid work though!

good paint job...
good spirit...

love the way you make pics...

Still far from the holy truth but on the good road....

Nice, clean, solid paint job. I like the colour scheme, too, though I agree that more varity in hair colour would have been nice. I try to mix it up on my dwarves (and I have two teams) and as Norse said, I only give my slayers orange/red hair. Although, on my current team, the slayers hair will be in team colours.

Over all nice.

I echo the prior comments, and would also add a very minor criticism - use an Xacto knife to clean up the flack on the bases

So far so good. Good job!

good paint, but, I agree: you need more color hair.

I have the ame figures that you have as a head coach, but mine is an apothecary.

just a minor thing... maybe a bit brown ink on the mask, the coach (?) is carrying. So you will get more " deep " ... a little more highlighting would do the same job.

BTW... the green color you using looks like greenstuff

All advice is welcome and the general opinion on hair colour.

@Grundgen
it is 40k diarama that i'm working on.
@traveller
It's Goblin Green!I was going to use the "Coach" as a Runesmith but Hmmmm
And about more highlights,Do i do this with lighter dry brushing?
Am i better buying inks or letting down and mixing other colours i have?

more picts of the diorama, please ! I´m always interested in this things...

There is nothing in his left hand ? Just convert or put a nice hammer in his hand and its clear, he is a runesmith

And about more highlights,Do i do this with lighter dry brushing?

Yep, thats one way. Or a very fine brush to add some very fine line on top.

Am i better buying inks or letting down and mixing other colours i have?

I prefer inks from GW as there are no inks from Vallejo gamecolors ( or i dont knew about them ) If you let the watered brown inks sink into the deeps , than drybrush (very dry) with your basecolor you painted your mask again and than drybrush it again with shinny gold or silver ( kind of personal taste ) ... could be a nice effect. Similar to use with other metal stuff like helmets, runes,...

Thats just a way, i would do this... not a general rule !!!

Cheers Traveller,I will post a very basic of the diarama later today .

A good method for slightly tarnished bronze is the following, letting each step dry before the next one:
1. Dark gold or, better, gold mixed with bronze
2. GW Chestnut Ink
3. GW Flesh Wash mixed with a little goblin green
4. Drybrush carefully with dark gold
5. GW Chestnut ink again
6. Final highlights in gold.

Why do Slayers have ginger hair? Is that what they are attempting to attone for

Nice paint jobs.
