It's two (marines)

 

 

Well, this is the last entry in the series, I swear! Here you can ese diferente before and after my try of even things up (mostly the blue hues) In shorts termes, my 1st marine was top bright and my 2nd top dark (liked it setter bit has to brighten him up and Darién the previous entry).

 

Next stop, the twilight zo... huh, not really. But something Big is coming. Hopefully in the next few days (have to take pics yet!)

Vale, la ultima entrada al respecto, lo prometo. Diferencias entre el antes y después de intentar ecualizar los azules de mi primer marine azul claro y el segundo, me gustaba mas, oscuro. Así que a subir y bajar tones de uno y otro.

 

En la siguiente entrada, algo grande. A ver si saco fotos hoy o...maaaaañana.

it's too... (pt.2)

 

 

All hail the Space Mariachi! Painted it twice indeed; it was too dark compared to my 1st speshh mareen, so I glazed it to death in order to make him a bright guy. Tried to keep it as roguetradeish as I could.

Saluden al hermano Mariachi Espacial! Lo pinté por duplicado, ya que al ser mas oscuro que el primer marine, tuve que velarlo hasta la muerte para no perder las luces y aun así hacer el azul algo mas brillante. He intentado mantenerlo todo lo retro que he podido...

it's too... (pt.1)

 

 

I painted (and posted) this fellow time ago and now I've painted another marine I realized it was too...light. So Ive been trying to balance the blue to a darker hue. Hope you like it now better. Already have the second marine's pics. I'll upload them as soon as I crop the stuff.

Pinté (y subí) fotos de este marine hace tiempo. Ahora que tengo otro Marie este me pareció...bueno, demasiado claro. Así que he ajustado el azul a un tono mas oscuro. Espero que os guste. Tengo las fotos del otro marine, en cuanto las recorte, las subo.

Javi New Year (2014)

 

 

Bueno. Mis disculpas a los que siguen rondando este lugar o los que llegaron por accidente y no vieron novedades...en meses. He hecho algunas (pocas) cosas pero con la mudanza, cambio de equipo, etc... A continuación, una de las primeras minis que presenté en el blog (2006) por fin, a color. Espero que os guste y, feliz año nuevo!

'k. A sincere apology to those who still keep visiting my blog and the one who accidentally stumbled with it too. No updates in months but by no means I stopped sculpting-painting. I just got fewer time to do so. This is a guy I showed back in 2006 when I started my blog. Now it's painted. Hop you kinda like it. I have a batch of new pics to come so stay tunned, and by the way, Happy New Year (toast).

Hard Rock

Well that given one isn't so hard but still it's stone. WIP of the Monkey who born out of a rock (chinese book journey to west). I've had problems with dropbox so that's why Im posting just two pics concerning "off topic" stuff. Still hope you like it. There will be news regarding other topics arround the next week. Cheers!

Bueno, no tan duro el "rock" ero aun así,es un piedrote. WIP del mono nacido de la roca, según el cuento chino (que mal suena) Viaje al Oeste. He tenido problemas con drop box por eso actualizo con esto, pero si la cosa marcha el resto de fotos de otras cosas verán la luz... ¿ la semana que viene ? Seguramente. Saludos!

Sant Jordi 13

K, St. George time. Here it's a big day. You give your "princess" a rose (grown from the dragon's blood), she gives you back a book. Free books and dragons, easily my fave day of the year.

This is part of a 4 part vignettes. Part 3 to be exact. Time ago I made part 1 where he fought a blue dragon. Back at the time he looked like a inmaculate templar. I supposed so many years later and after killing so much stuff his robes were soaked in monsters' blood, turning him reckless and full of rage. That's why now he's a little more chaotic/neutral than good, abandoning his knight's shield in favor of a second weapon as now he only care about bringing death no matter it's to dragonkind or to himself trying.

See that at the bottom ? a Vellejo's bottle tip. He's that tiny. Maybe 4 or 5 mm tall. His posse is so damn epic if you ask me... love it. The coin is 5€cents, plus a primed shot on a lollypop stick. Next week I'll be doing the dragon. Hope you liked it. Cheers!

Vale, "Sant Jordi". Un día muy popular por aquí. Relagas una rosa (nacida de la sangre del dragón) y te regalan un libro. Libros gratis y dragones, aun os preguntais porque es de mis días favoritos?

Parte de una serie de 4 viñetas, de las cuales es la 3a, la primera hace años (buscadla!) era un duelo entre un caballero mas inexperto y noble y un dragoncete azul. Tantos años matando dragones han teñido sus ropas con sangre de monstruo y envilecido su armadura, volviéndolo imprudente, impulsivo...lleno de ira. Ahora es mas caótico/neutral de ahi que abandonase su puro escuro por una segunda arma, preocupandose solo por traer la muerte a los dragones... o la suya propia.

Veis esa cosilla abajo ? la puntica de una pintura vallejo. Asi de peque es... tambien al lado de 5 céntimos o subido al palo de un pachús. Entre 4 y 5 mm de alto. La semana que viene, el dragón. Espero que os haya gustado, un saludo!

Blast from the past (dinorider)

Well, it's been exactly 2 years since I made this fella. Inspired by the templars (survivor humans slighly mutated to adapt the harsh enviropment of Dark Eden - earth in the Mutant Chronicles universe) I took inspiration from the concept art in the rulebook wich elements to add or combine, as well as color choices.

Now its weird flesh and robe are finished, the rest of the model, mount included are basecoated, highligted once in some cases and then washed. I know for many it would make a tabletop piece but I see it as just the color blocking. Hope to smooth things up and finish it in the next sitting.

Just in case you missed it, the original post about the dinofroz and its rider is here and there.

Bueno, 2 añitos exactos despues de terminar el bicho...lo empiezo a pintar! se supone que es un tempario (superviviente humano adapatado mediante mutación evolutiva a las condiciones del eden oscuro, la tierra de mutant chronicles). Me inspiré en el arte conceptual del manual intentando decirdir con que me queda, que combino o descarto, y un esquema de color coherente para la bestia.

La piel rarunga y los harapos están terminados. El resto esta simplemente pintado en capa base y con un lavado para tener un punto de partida. Algunos dirian que "para jugar, vale" pero le voy a dedicar mas tiempo, suavizandolo todo un poco, añadiendo detalle... espero que de una sentada en la proxima sesión.

Por si os lo perdisteis, el original con el tema del dinofroz y tal aqui y alli.
