What are the worst painted models you have/have seen?

I asked my friend some painting tips and he told me thinning wasn't necessary, and then promptly insulted my paint jobs when I told him to thin paints....here's one of his master works.

Oh boy do I have a story for you!

>Be at rich "friends" house

>People only hang around him because he's rich af and has a huge house and table

>Buys entire armies, gets people to commission paint them, then throws them into his closet literally 2 weeks later

>Has done this with every single army in both Fantasy and 40k

>Absolutely shit at both modelling and painting but thinks hes amazing

>has a dremel tool

>Hey anon, wanna see the power of the dremel?

>Pulls out a leman russ and goes ham on it with a dremel, totally destroyes it beyond recognition

>"Why did you do that?"

>"I had an extra leman russ!"

>Pulls out necrons, space marines and proceeds to dremel them into dust to the point where the room smells like burnt plastic

This is the leman russ he "finished" off...

And yes, I did try to save them, he's very greedy with his models, to the point where I can go searching into boxes in his closet and find random forgeworld krieg units, ask him if he still wants them, and his response is >Dude I was about to convert that!

He's done worse.

My favourite is when he stole his mom's credit card (yes he actually did)
to pay 370 dollars to have his riptide pro painted.

He promptly threw it in a shoe box along with about 3,000 points worth of tau
models in his closet and lost most of the magnetized pieces.

Being from a place that is hard to get these models and seeing that shit makes me die inside, I even give my chaos scavengers names when they are done from attchment to the tiny plastic guys...

But I knew a boy that was like that when I was younger. I wanted to buy his shit ton of legos (buy, not get, buy) when he got on his teens to do dioramas and stuff and he jusat said "Oh, I still use them!" And never touched then again. Fuck crazy rich people.

I think he does. Some sort of hoarder mentality.

Thing is, he gets 400 dollars a week in "allowance"...

A bunch of us tried to get together and talk to our Local GW manager to get him kicked
out of the store for various shenanigans such as...

>Bringing a ridiculous death star krieg list against a first time player (He's done this several times actually)
>This time it was a 13 year old kid, to which he proceeded to start talking shit to him and about him to people around the store after he won
>5 people ended up yelling at him and he left

>Punching somebody in the balls the first time he came to the store (Happened right infront of me)

>Sticking people's models in his mouth (he did this to a leman russ turret of mine, and my friend's tau,
>People actually get cautious when he comes up to a game now because he does this quite often)

>Admitting to baking his dice, bringing loaded dice, constantly cheating whenever he plays, and lies about "winning multiple tournaments"

>Tries to get people kicked out of the store by making up stories of them and telling the manager when they finally tell him to fuck off.
>Actual stories he made up include "Anon was showing people midget porn!" and "HE STOLE FROM THE STORE BAN HIM!"

>He has a brand new Car his parents bought for him when he turned 16, he's 18 now but doesn't have a license because "I don't have the patience for driving school fuck that."

>Throwing other people's models across the table

>Claims the holocaust never happened, is litterally a neo-nazi, has various swastikas around in his room

About 8 of us came to the store manager to get him banned from the store forever, but the manager was totally against it,
mostly because he spends thousand and thousands of dollars at that store (This store won a life size space marine because this guy bought like 8 age of sigmar pre-order boxes on his own)

Many of us totally avoid him and don't even go to that GW to play any more.

What is it with badly painted models and obvious hairs/dust mixed in with the paint? Just makes them even worse. I did it once whilst rushing a Hammerhead, had to strip it and start again.

I have a soft makeup blusher brush that I use before I start painting a model if it's been sat on the desk for a week.

Buy this exact can. After vigorous shaking, coat one side of your models with light sweeping sprays, let dry for 30 mins, then flip and do the other side.

NMM tends to look great, but only from one specific angle, and then it looks like crap from any other angle. It also hard to do right (and looks terrible if you don't pull it off perfectly), and really time consuming if you're gonna paint a whole army.

And yeah, it's just wankery most of the time.

I buy exactly that tube of acrylic for my terrain work.

It's fucking garbage.

It doesn't even get good coverage over bases, it's like two or three layers to get full coverage over bases, let alone minis or primer or anything else.

Also, watercolour paints will look like shit and won't even work

He's a senior in HS and goes up to Lonely looking freshmen girls, gets them to come to his placeand smokes pot with them then takes advantage
of the situation.

He films it apparently to, because when one girl was breaking up with him he threatened to put a video
of them having sex online which is absolutely ridiculous because he would be uploading cp if he did (He's 18 and she was 15) .

Yes we did tell the store manager this who is an ex-cop no less, his response was "Pot isn't a date rape drug."

I just want to point out something I hope offends you guys.

Every time you post a WIP model that you call "good" because you just fucking dryburshed some color onto a base, this >>43452942 is all I see.

Look, I'm a professional illustrator, so I know a thing or two about learning a skill like painting. I've taught handicap kids in classes before, so I have nothing against people who lack skill. Lacking skill is fine.

Lacking skill and being defensive about it? Go fuck yourself. The second someone defends their shit paintjob, they lose all respect.

The only, ONLY answer should ever be "Yes, I know I suck. I'll work harder to not suck.". Because if you can't say that to yourself, you have no business putting your work out in public.

thin your paints, don't thin your paints, Ultimately how you paint your models doesn't matter as long as at the end the model actually looks good. this requires picking a style you are comfortable with and practicing, as well as picking up tricks from other painters and incorporating it into your own.

but the worst paint job I have ever seen I have no photos of, but I can tell you what he did and you can use your imagination:

All he did was took the unpirmed models and some markers, yes markers, and just scribbled the colors onto the models.

It looked just as bad as you could imagine, if not worse.

Before I knew how much of a cretin he was I would let
him in the car with me when we went to go eat or something (since he didn't have his license).

The first, and last time, was when he thought it would be JUST HILARIOUS to start YANKING THE HANDBRAKE
while I was driving while screaming at the top of his lungs "TOKYO DRIFT!!!!!"

He later went and told everybody at the gaming store, including the manager, that "I was drifting in his neighborhood."

Manager looks at me and calls me stupid, even though im telling him what actually happened.

When I was correcting people he would loudly tell me "STFU YES WE WERE DRIFTING!"

Oh fuck, I've been to that store. I don't really go anymore because the Denton GW is slightly closer and Age of Sigmar has pretty well killed any enthusiasm I have for this hobby, but I always thought that the Preston manager was alright. Guess not.

Oh well. I'll just drive all the way out to fucking Madness Comics and Games in Plano whenever I want to game.
