From the desk: Doomshaper day 1-ish

There's a point, when I'm painting a miniature, particularly when using black primer, where I think to myself "This is never going to look good." Eventually I make enough progress to get past that point and it starts to look good. However, I'm right in that zone right now. However, I figured I'd snap a quick picture.

I'm not going for any special departure from the studio scheme. Tan tartan, brown leathers, bronze scrolls. I made a slight alteration to the angle of his head from the normal sculpt. Otherwise he's pretty much stock. I decided to make a slightly more epic base for him as well, which you can see pictured here in its initial stage while the green stuff hardens.

Well, it's late, and I'm still sick with the flu and have to go to work tomorrow, so I'm going to sign off now instead of punishing myself with another late night of painting. Until tomorrow!
