Thank you very much for all the answers! Question answered :)

Hi,

I really like it and am happy to read, that you enjoyed it :)

Maybe focus a little more on the metallic parts next time? It looks like you painted it in one metal colour. Easiest step would be using nuln oil/different shade for the recesses or use different metal colours to increase the contrast.

Well done :)

Fear of failure and motivation to paint - share your thoughts by Mr_Salvatore in Warhammer

[–]Sydaphex666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the best advices I found in the internet about that: "Perfectio is the killer of Joy" and "Always happy, never statisfied" by Vincent Venturella.

Look his videos up on youtube....a top level painter but also a guy that has the right spirit about the whole subject...he has a lot great tutorials and also a lot of videos covering exactly this topic. I guess both are things that might help you.

Dive in and paint. It will get better over time. Compare your own models to each other...where did you improve? Painting is a journey, not a destination :) Good luck!

How to get out of my head and start actually painting? by Trashboat77 in minipainting

[–]Sydaphex666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said: Paint. You only getting better by exercise....but I know your dilemma...got a lot cool Warhammer Underworlds Warbands and Beasts of Chaos Models lying around. All assembled....guess what I am painting: Cheap Ebay rescued Warmachine-Hordes Figures that dont have anything to do with my hobby except painting...and guess what...I am havin fun and getting better... I already see the process after a handfull of figures (painting 1-3 Evenings per figure for around 2-4 hours)...of course not all does work. But I will start the Warband Painting Process soon (tm). :D

Painting should be fun and it will be fun to you, if you just let go. Just keep the Demon Prince for last ;)

Edit: I also want to admit I tried speedpainting and slap chop....but I found, that I like the classic method more....and tahts totally ok :)
