Cap'n Shiny Pants

Greetings once more, readers.  Another day gone, and another figure to show off - this time one of the figures from the Sedition Wars kickstarter - and those of you familiar with Firefly (or looked at the tags for this post) have probably already figured out which  one - Captain Shiny Pants himself, Malcolm Renolds!

What was that?  Oh, right...  This isn't an official tie-in miniature, this is a send off to the series fig.  Forgive me.  I meant we have the illustrious Ian Reins:

Maybe not my best work ever, but he is surely ready to take the field and make sure everything's shiny in the 'verse.

That's all I have for you folks today.  Tune in tomorrow for something else off my painting bench - and I've definitely noticed that my productivity's gone way up since I started this.  Of course, like all true hobbyists, it's still a drop in the bucket compared to what I have yet to paint - but it at least gives me a solid reason to keep painting stuff up every day.

A bit of Primer, a touch of Layer

Greetings once more, folks.  Time once again to see what I've been up to today.  I don't have a lot to show off in this update - the last progress on the Dragon for a bit, and the first progress on the next Competition piece.

Let's start of with the dragon:

Not near as much progress as I would have liked - but painting scales properly takes up a good chunk of time - but I'm not going to worry about that for now.  For I have a new batch of figures primed:

Including the next competition piece - the Skaven Doomwheel I showed you all yesterday:

If you're wondering why I've painted the crystal bits white, they're going to be small light sources on the vehicle, and I'm going to use a glaze to give them a greenish glow - and to tinge the area around them the same color.  If I pull it off, it should look pretty sweet.  If not...  Well, I've had worse results...

Until next time, folks - paint on!
