Broken - by Trovarion

Hello, dear paint-sprayers and brush-lickers,

In this article, I want to show you guys and girls a beautiful little bust by Trovarion. Christoph Eichhorn, the person behind Trovarion, is a painter and sculptor. He has made many figures and bust that can be often seen on Putty&Paint, Facebook or at conventions and competitions.

The bust I got is a very cute, small bust of a damaged android. I haven't measured it but I'd say it's about 5cm high. The droid's right jaw and cheek (the viewers left) is damaged due to some unknown cause.

As you can see, the bust doesn't feature a lot of different textures, but it does have more than enough options for patterns or some nice weathering. Since there are not a ton of cool sci-fi busts out there this is a real gem! The original price was €25 but Christoph figured out how to get the price down to €21 for new buyers. Contact Christoph via the Trovarion Facebook page to check the current price and availability.

Well, that is all for this little review. I hope you enjoyed it as I will enjoy painting this little droid bust.

Thank you for reading and don't forget to keep the tip pointy and the airbrush needle lubed up!

WIP - Orgrim Doomhammer bust

Hello, painting friends!

Today I want to share a quick 'Work In Progress' post about my orc bust.

I did a review of this bust in this article a couple of months ago and I was very excited to work on it! To make it look more alive I wanted to create a certain atmosphere to set a theme. In this case, I want to paint him like he is standing in the darkness, near a campfire. This means one side should be dark and the other side should be lit by the fire, almost having to paint OSL (object source lighting) on the fire lit side.

I hope you like this quick WIP post. If you do and want to see more WIP articles in the future, be sure to let me know in the comments!

As from today, I'll be away to Marocco for a week. I do have another SMC loot review planned for Monday. If all goes well this will be automatically published on Monday morning.

I will see you all with a new article in about 10 days!

Bye!
