Resistance was broken at last, I convinced my girlfriend to try painting a figure. As my other minis didnīt suit her, we chose to (re-)paint a few Warhammer Fantasy High Elves – which was actually my firstpainted regiment 10 years ago ;) Well, look how that turned out under my guidance:
More pictures and comparison to MY first effort are on my blog at: link
Thanks for looking ;) |

Very nice job… I like your explanation of guidance and experience. But let's face it… she did a better job than you did :P |

Thereīs no denying that fact, I know ;D |

Rather nice job I think! Especially for a first time! |

BG's girlfriend will soon be sending an email to her friends with photographs of her toenails and fingernails painted and saying "look what I got my boyfriend to paint." She did an excellent job. Far, far better than my poor first efforts. |

For 15 years I have been trying to get my sweetie to paint figures. Nothing. I thought maybe buildings? Nope. It looks like you have a really good painter as well as a girlfriend. :) More reason to keep her happy! |

Well done! Did she have fun with it? Doug |

She did have fun and is going to paint more, though she explicitly restrained herself to fantasy figures – which is alright, I like to do some fantasy stuff every now and then between my regular military painting – and itīs probably understandable that this is not so much a girls thing ;) Donīt think weīll be moving towards fingernails soon, she ainīt that kind of person. |

Need to add a photo of the painter, holding her brush. |

One word "Keeper" Seriously, nice paintwork. |

My wife (Gawd bless her!), likes to paint, but she is the "Scenery and Terrain builder" of us….she does the fences, trees, roads, etc…I paint the figures…. |

Be prepared- when you get married this will be one more thing that will stop. |
