    You should build your self a drying box, essentially it's a sealed boxed with an halogen light bulb in it, usually with a dimmer switch and a shiny foil lining to bounce heat around. Works amazing for drying large batches of minis with oils on them.

    WOW you killed this looks freaking awesome.

    I love this interpretation of the Death Dealer. It came out great. šŸ‘šŸ‘
  • The added benefit of moving the stirrups forward is that when you ride you want to be standing on the balls of your feet instead of the arches of your feet. Mostly as a safety thing as it is much easier to get your feet out in a bad situation when they are only to the balls of your feet. You do not want to have a foot stuck and get dragged by a runaway horse.

    Wow great job. Love watching you use oil paints.
  • @chris_rnr
    I was waiting for this. Thank you for sharing.
  • @TheRunesmythe
    Its a very iconic piece of art and I feel like your final rendition of this kit did it justice. I really like the idea of the oil paints on the armor, it gives you a sort of color shifting feel.
  • @bubbapipe
    So glad you are doing this kit! I have one in my stash and was wonder if you had painted this yourself what colors and techniques you would use...I guess I need not wonder anymore. Finished project looks awesome.
  • @Kojak0
    Very nice - I'd say the main problem you had with this kit was the fact that it was a kit to begin with; yes, the artwork is iconic in that it's one of Frazetta's most recognized, but that does not mean that the artwork is suitable as a model. Frazetta has done a lot more stuff that would lend itself a lot better to becoming models than this one since there is so much guessing involved. That said, very fine work there - I would probably have tackled it using acrylics all around, but that's me.
  • This is making me want to more and more start messing with oil paints and see what I can do with them. But first, perfecting airbrush technique!
  • @DFloyd84
    I'd like to think that Frank would approve of your paint work.
  • @redgreen09

    Thank you for this!!! I would like to try a "Grim Dark" version...to steal a term. Your tutorials are wonderful. THANK YOU so much!!!
  • @ssgtslick
    Thank you! Have this one in the build pile. This will be a huge help. (Any chance you'll do "Vermithrax" from Pegasus Hobbies?)
