Magistry Clint

Well, this is actually one of the first miniatures I've ever painted, or at the very least, the first one I've painted since I got the last intro set (The Assassin on the left is the first mini I ever painted). Figured I'd share it here.

Was receiving some tutoring on painting from a guy who does commissions for Warhammer 40K and D&D Minis and whatnot, so I'm hoping it turned out pretty well.

Also, does anyone have any experience trying to take mini pictures with an iPhone Camera? It's... Troublesome.

They both look nice. 8) :thumbsup:  Your yellow covered very well on the Clint, which is tricky to do.

As for taking pics with an iPhone, that's what I have to work with at the moment.  I find it very finicky.  Natural light and daylight style light bulbs are what works best for me for lighting.  What I use for background will depend on the color of the minis, and what kind of mood the camera is in.  I find picture taking far easier when I borrow my dad's digital Canon.

Looks great, just have to make sure the light angle provides the best coverage to minimize shadows.  Indirect sunlight is good for that.

See, now I'm wishing I had painted the head yellow with a green stripe.
