And I'm off!

There's no point jazzing it up lads. I want to paint.

I've got a mountain of personal and commission projects, and I can paint while minis print for orders.

I'm reworking how I take orders for 3D prints, too. I need to manage time wisely.

So, for the first model built in the new year, I have a dwarf. As the God's rightfully intended.

More to do today, but he was next on my build list anyway as I am still working on operation de-sprue the personal collection.

Oathmark Dwarf Infantry with Aztec back banner?
 
Kind of reminds me of when Volkmar the Grim was put up on a warbanner. Good stuff.

First of all, doesn't the model have a bared midriff? Or is your roomate/love interest not into that level of skin display?

Secondly, the way you've shaded the model around the nose makes her look like she has a moustache :p

I believe you are right. I decided to make it look like a skin tight corset.

Good point on the nose.
