That mustache! Such curly. So fashion.
Thanks a lot for this 🙂 really looking foward the next episode.
I think it is really useful watching other people modelling 🙂 We never stop to learn!
Delighted to see some base love, not that I’ve any complaints about the other painting guides but basing really does put the final touches to all those hours of work!
If only Captain Kirk had such a magnificent beard.
So I start working on my Guild Ball bases today just as Romains basing tutorial comes out.
Kismet.
Looking forward to part two Romain, fabulous job as always Mon’Amie.
I agree, I love the shirt! Romain could almost be the “evil” version of Kirk from “Mirror, Mirror.”
Oh wait, that was Spock that had the kickin’ beard for that episode. 😀
a nice simple looking base. if you drill slightly overlapping holes between the end holes its easier to cut the slot romain
Thanks for the advice !
Basecrafts are worth checking out.
Nice tutorial.
Sub Zero Tutorial Romain Its always nice to see how others make & base their models.

Eh. Also, this is an old file anyway, and I regularly clean it.
Thank you so much for remembering to cut _away_ from your hand while using the knives. Your hands are far too important to be subjected to such simple safety errors. 🙂
Thanks for the kind words everyone ! You’re a great audience !
What an interesting tutorial I like the painting ones but it’s nice to see a slightly different one every no and then. Especially on an important aspect of the miniature completion.
When is part two coming?
