Some of you already know, that i have been painting miniature most of the past few weeks. To a paint to make a few dollars actuly, and, with a bit of luck and lot of hard work, maybe even a living.

anyhow, here's ta thing;
I like to know not ofly what you think of the painting, but also of What mini (not that paint but the mini it self) do you like most, that you would buy.

This is a kind of poll, as i buy minis to sell them painted.

Anyhow, anjoy the pics!

Damn. I wish I painted as good as you. Compared to you, my Vahallan Ice Warriors Imperial Guard unit looks more like a dab-and-go

I only play 40K, and if I played Eldar, I'd definitely buy your Farseer (Or is that a warlock?), your swooping hawks, and this guy, whose name escapes me, because I love the paint jobs on those. That is, of course, if I bought painted minis (I prefer doing it myself, craptastic as they may be.)

Edit: This picture never fails to make me laugh

Cool! What's this one from?

EDIT: And is there anything from Legions of Steel in there? That's pretty much my favorite minis game ever.

Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

Here.
It's most likely the Apocolypse game, but I cant be sure. Reaper has the single best quality minis in the industry, and it has a sweet online catalog to browse through

EDIT: Correction, it's actually a Warlord mini, found
here

I play WHF myself, so I can't really comment upon the 40k minis (even though your paintwork is superb!).

Those Reaper miniatures though...wow!

Those in particular are of a quality that I would purchase, painted, from an artist such as yourself.

I play all types of games
The great thing about Reaper is the price to quality ratio. They have superb minis at low prices (which is good because Apocolypse is a game which requires very few minis to play), whereas Games Workshop usually charges an arm and a leg for mediocre minis, not to mention you need to field a lot of them to play a game

yes, i must say that i love reaper and the warlord line is GREAt stuff.

But there's also Confrontation that i love. sure, the minis are not cheap. But the size, the qualaty and the fact that you need but only 4-5 to start playing is fun.

Warhammer is a nice game ... but the fact that 300$ will only give you a starting army sux, and then making the minis (cuting, cleaning, painting, more glueing and then base) is a real pain.

on this note, dont be afraide to ask me if you want a mini =)

The Conquest range (with even more translated into english each month) seem a little imposing to work on - all the extra detail is a little daunting.

Unfortunately both Reaper and Confrontation minis are difficult to find here in the land Down Under (or at least the better models are).

As for WH...heh, my fiance would more than agree with you. I think both she and I would have a stroke if I were to add up just how much I've spent on WH (including minis, paints, etc) over the last 6 months. Expensive, sure , but I do believe (as is evident with their newest figures) you get great quality miniatures for what you pay.
