Iron Painter Round 3 - Wednesday in Progress(?) for 04 May 2016

Last Wednesday I talked about starting the third round of this year's Iron Painter. Then I talked about restarting. This week I am going to talk about restarting yet again. Shipping took longer than I had hoped for the second project I started, so I am on a backup that I started yesterday. There really is not a lot to share at this point.

The model is a Monstrosity for the Cephalyx faction in Privateer Press' Game, Warmachine. I finished cleaning, pinning, magnetizing, and putty work on this model yesterday. I had already cleaned on the model to use for gaming previously, but I gave it another go because @#$%! Privateer Press' plastic models. To be fair, the monstrosities have been a joy to clean compared to other plastic models I have picked up from the company.

Iron Painter Round 3 - Wednesday in Regression for 27 Apr 2016

Wyrd announced the theme for round three of Iron Painter on Monday. The theme is "Wyrd Science". We have until this counter reaches zero to submit our entries. My partner for this round is Neveroddoreven. You can find their round one entry here, and their round two entry here.

Better Off (Un)Dead and Wednesday in Progress - 20 Apr 2016

This was the final submission image for my entry to the second round of this year's Iron Painter. The theme for round two was Better Off (Un)Dead. I ended up not adjusting the levels at all as I normally use levels to attempt to make models look closer in colour to their in person appearance, and that simply was not happening. The only editing on any of these pictures was cropping, resizing, and combining multiple images into one file.

The image to be judged.

Iron painter: Better Off (Un)Dead - Wednesday in Progress (Part II)

I finished up with the sculpting for the Better Off (Un)Dead submission for the second round of Iron Painter. I have also been slapping paint on the model. I am not happy with how things are going. I have four days before the deadline if I plan for at least one day of no painting. I kind of want to break the putty back out and do some alterations. I want to repaint the leather jacket and have not done anything with the rest of the leather. There are also minor details, some freehand, and global illumination yet to do.

Iron painter: Better Off (Un)Dead - Wednesday in Progress

I managed to secure a spot in the gold bracket going into the second round of this year's Iron Painter. The theme this round is "Better Off (Un)Dead." The bits and pieces people have shown of their work so far for this round has been impressive. A lot of people are fired up. Judging from the Wyrd forums, I expect the entries for this round to be more involved than the first.

Pretty in Pink and Wednesday in Progress - 30 Mar 2016

Here is my submission for the first round of this year's Iron Painter. The theme for round one was Pretty in Pink. I had a lot of fun with this entry. It was weird working to a deadline. I was uncertain I would be able to accomplish this task.

Iron Painter Standouts for Round One - Pretty in Pink

I plan on sharing some pictures of my entry for round one of this year's Iron Painter event. Before I do that, I wanted to share some of the entries that stood out to me. I was originally looking at sharing thirty some odd entries, but decided that was too many.
