STDs, Skits, Concept Art, and Busts! BTS #65
🕑 Added 2020-04-09 20:46:41 +0000 UTCWhat up, mini family?!
This past week has been action packed. It started out with working on the video that's coming out this Friday, about coming up with a paint scheme for an army. This was a topic voted on by our Dark Wizard patrons and I'm happy to finish it. Here were the 3 test models I worked on to refine the scheme for batch painting:
After that, it was on to the next video which I decided was going to be another goofy skit. If you've ever seen the miniature hacks video I did, this is part #2. It's coming out for early release this Friday! Hopefully this sells if for you ;)
Next up, I got back in contact with Tatiana Vetrovna to do another concept art for my upcoming Swamp elves. This is the first revision she sent back to me:
There are elements from both elves that I like. I had this idea that he would have recently decapitated an invading wood elf. The story I want is that he was sent to the swamp as punishment and he's very bitter about it. I think he needs a bow and quiver somewhere, and a different set of antlers, possibly a little bit smaller. I've been mulling this over for a few days now before I send my response.
Lastly, I started to work on a commission that I've had for a while. Should finish it up pretty soon. It's a 3D printed bust! Working on some textures for his blue jacket.
That's all for now!
PAINT MORE MINIS!

The Elves are awesome 🤘🏻 🤯
Maybe his armor could be a little bit scuffed and not polished and he's not had the faculties available to him that normal wood elves have. That's all I can think of!
Ooh, inviting. #InformedConsent #PayForThisLater
Yes
... Is the sexy pose on the countertop the image representing STDs?
I def dig the story of this guy. Is there something physical to represent his punishment that would be evident in the art?
Yeah, the original brief was holding by the hair, the left concept shows that but it isn't enough of a focal point. We'll nail it down!
also I like him holding the head by it's hair, especially if he's all business about it. No need to be holding it up or anything just straight down by his side touching his body almost hard to notice.
Wow, I get to comment on concept models, well I'm gonna do that. I like the antlers but something more spikey like his personality (if he's bitter he's gonna be prickley) along the lines of, but not as OTT as, kate blanchet, the goddess of death, in THOR RAGNOROK. I don't like him looking down as that suggests rumination or reflection and also a lack of alertness, if he's looking down i would think it's cos of swagger so straddling a dead body or chillin' against a trunk as he sharpens a blade. If he's crouched then he's battle ready. he want more blood. Knives out for next kill.

Definitely keep the antlers, even if you go a bit smaller. Reminds me of my Cenarion Raiment as a lowly Night Elf Druid when I played WoW about 15 years ago. Shit I'm old
