Finished up the second Archon this morning:  This one killed a bunch of Daemons in the game before I painted him, hence the cloak. The Succubus is nearly done too although I had to pin her glaive where the join snapped which slowed things down a little. Put some basecoats on the Venom today as well, so just that and the plane to go!

Booyah- posted:it looks pretty loving rad right now Thanks, man! This is after a night of drying.  I could definitely do an army of these guys. Prime with Vallejo Israeli Sand primer. Spray from above with VMC Deck Tan. Paint red with Gory Red, body suit with P3 Coal Black. Paint eye with P3 Arcane Blue. Dipped with Minwax Polyshades Tudor. Edit: vvvvvvvv I am. This guy was really just to test the scheme. I don't want to spend as much as a full list would cost right now. I know I have enough on my plate. ... maybe by Christmas ... dexefiend fucked around with this message at 12:06 on May 7, 2018 |

I know I'm like the least qualified person in the world to say this but - finish one of your other armies first, dude.

 Finally finished assembling my Malifaux box, except for a base for the Flesh Construct. Some of the models were not as bad as I thought, but yikes.

Then it's just two more squads to finish before a 1250 point tournament at the end of the month. E: also Dex that's a really nice elf

WIP on my first Wet Elf, not quite 100% sure if I want to go with this scheme. The gem is supposed to be a pearl. I'm not sure it really works at such a small size (or if I have the skill to pull it off anyway), I might just redo it as a normal colored gem. Lord_Hambrose posted:
The Crazy Cat Lady (nightmare Hamelin) box is pretty cool. Imagine putting together that chihuahua but like 15 times.

Back to painting! Now that the semester is over I finally have my weeknights back, and while I have a lot to catch up on I'm committed to getting back on track. Tonight was a good step as I got all of the edge highlighting done on my Inceptors and applied the first purple wash. Tomorrow will be the second wash, then it's down to detail work. Some of the stuff worries me (still not sure how I'm going to do the foot extension things) but I'm sure it'll work out. More importantly I'm painting!

Spent tonight building my all-resin Raven Guard Contemptor. It has been a while since I've worked with resin, and it's not as easy as plastic! I think I'll have it fully constructed and painted by tomorrow.

Looking forward to getting the whole army painted up, I'll try and get a full look at the 2k list and then another of the whole gang in the cases which is like 3-4k depending. I really like your Guard infantry, looking forward to seeing more of them. rzal posted:Some stuff I've done recently. Cool stuff, love the BB Orcs.

Got my first 5 lads done for forge world Konor, hopefully the next bunch wont take me quite so long now that I've gotten a feel for the method. Next up is my tech priest dominus whose nearly ready to shade and being a massive tart for painting characters I'll get him done faster. Lighting's even worse than usual since my directed lamp's bulb died as i was repositioning it for this and its too hot to change right now  .(Also no I didnt forget to put the flasks on the side of the plasma callivers shut up its fine.)

More progress! Managed to do a second coat of purple on the Inceptors before cleaning up the backpacks and starting on the plasma exterminators. I finished up the heads and glued them on; I'm really excited about how they're going to look.

I regret spray painting this white, but I learn lessons best by making mistakes. I got my fiance into painting miniatures, and the pathfinder ones seem great because they are already primed.  We need to figure out the lore for what chapter of space marine this could be.

Slapped together my second box of Custodes last night. It’s now up to Trajan, 5 Vertus Praetors, 5 Wardens, 6 Allarus Custodes and 9 Custodes. Also, I’m not a fan of the Gloss Agrax Earthshade at all. It’s too hard to work with and dries sticky.
