Viridia Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 As far as the Foundry Miniatures paints.... TITH I just ordered the Burning Gold triad. Not that I need any more flavors of gold or anymore paint, for that matter. Nice, rather subdued range. But..... must...not...order...more. Just saying...just saying...you'll probably end up buying more. They are a really good range and I love them for the flip-open lids. It's why I'm not keen on Army Painter or P3 personally.

Semper Fortis Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Oh gods I hope not. Most of the empty spots are paints out on my workbench. 'Nuff said?? deathspectersgt7, BitsHammer, thewarriorhunter and 7 others 10 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axineton Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 TITH I actually pretty much finished two more of the 5 man Deathwatch kill team I’ve been painting! Two more to go then done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly does look like cookies. Is that the Ancestral rolling pin from Green Stuff World? It is. I wasn't sold on it at first but after talking paint schemes with some friends I looked at it again and really liked the sample images they provided on their website. It sold me on the pin and I really like it. I prefer more of the 'tile' and less of the 'zodiac' so I will probably roll out a few more and just make toppers with those sections. I'll have a few of the really intricate ones in the mix to provide variety and spice up the team. Semper Fortis 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 TITH, the paints I needed for airbrushing arrived - so I can crack on with my Adeptus Titanicus Legio Mortis army! Building to commence in the next few days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plastic_slug Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I sprayed my Necron Kill Team with Leadbelcher, and am now waiting for them to try so I can get on with painting tomorrow. I also splurged and gave my arm a break and ordered a Typhoon paint mixer and a wooden paint rack. Almost by default, this thing will have to do a better job than my shaking does.

MrZakalwe Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 YITH: I used my newly painted Cadian army in their first game (literally the first time they've left the house) and they won a tight 6-5 victory. Glory to the Emperor. Semper Fortis 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magos Takatus Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 TiTHI finished the remaining five Sicarian Infiltrators. I'm pleased with how quickly they were completed compared to the first five. Thankfully they blend in fairly well with the first five. I forgot how I painted some parts but managed to get them close enough that it's not noticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitsHammer Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I continue to make progress, though finding ways to make the transfers I've got work has been an interesting challenge. Namely because I can't write neatly enough to just fill in stuff: At this rate, it'll only be another week or so before I finish him. :P Magos Takatus, Dosjetka, Emicus and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axineton Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 TITH I’ve been assembling the promethium relay pipes. Nice and easy and only took 30 mins to assemble and glue. Weather permitting tomorrow I’ll prime them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 So, it was last weekend, but I biked 16 miles each way with my skirmishpack and my rulebooks to play 40k for the first time in (almost?) a year.

treadhead Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 @Teetengee Nice some physical exercise followed by some intellectual exercise YITHI Finished the plague marines from the second issue of warhammer conquest and the first strike box alongside the 6 plague zombies. TITHI frantically fixed the last elements of my deathwatch army in time for a game on Saturday, (the codex arrived a little quicker than i thought it would so the boys in sable clad are getting a field test) also painted 5 allarus custodes and an allarus shield captain in glorious gold and made a start on the other colours for the captain. It'll be a 2k game and I'll be fielding 51 models against orkses, thousands of orkses (ok not literally but when they get done mobbing up it feels like it ) My list features three 10 man kill teams, one 10 man primaris kill team, ven dread, blackstar, apothecary, Artemis, watch master and six bikers. Will let you folks know how it fares afterwards (and what i was up against) Teetengee 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitsHammer Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 So I've found that having my models lie on my bed seems to give me the best lighting and the least amount of glare from the matte: And now that I've finished this guy (this morning infact! I had to let the Astrogranite Debris dry completely before I could finish the model so he got to sit overnight) the next on the docket is me indulging in is my Redemptor....which should have been left in sub assemblies but that's me underestimating the layering of the parts on new Dreadnought when compared to the old ones.

Axineton Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 TITH I airbrushed most of the deathworld terrain I’ve acquired from buying the drukhari and deathwatch kill team boxes over the last few weeks or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewarriorhunter Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 TITH I finsihed my first Intercessor gunner for Kill Team and am working on wrapping up my Comms specialist. Here's my Intercessor all done up and waiting on weather so I can varnish and seal him up.

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 YITHI finished my company standard bearer, this finally completing my 2nd company command squad after buying them *checks* two and a half years ago. Good lord. That’s one model every six months. (In my defense, I had lost the banner for several months and that was the only thing that wasn’t done. In any case, it’s done now and I can field the whole thing finally. TITHI worked on a skitarii/Necron warrior conversion, and did a little painting on wraiths. I also went into a panic after realizing armies on parade is this Saturday and I still have so much to do for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axineton Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 TITH I got some new kill team dice for taking part in GWs kill team campaign and also picked up some zandri dust spray to prime the starter set scenery soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitsHammer Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 While B&C was down I finished my Redemptor, learned an important lesson about not touching still wet matte varnish when I mushed up what I'd considered to be the best chest aquila I'd ever painted and had to redo the transfe, got burnt out on painting 99% yellow all the time and started a second army to alternate with the Fists so I can go back and forth in terms of painting techniques and color choices and am working on a Genestealer Cult I'm calling the Children of the Throne (because if you're going to have a good cult it needs to sound like it could be a sect of the Ministorum in my book) which involves a riot of colors when compared to the yellow and black of my Fists army. Anyways, have some Redemptor pics: And I wish I could get a better picture of his fist, but anything clearer is too far away to show the detail of the tiny Imperial Fist icons on his knuckles.

Magos Takatus Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 As much as that warrants a "Yo Dawg..." meme, I really like the attention to detail in putting fists on that fist. It's a nice attention to detail. The black is a nice contrast to the yellow too. TiTHI continued the baby steps to finishing my third Primaris Aggressor. Just a little more highlighting and I'll be done. I am convinced that my Scale 75 metallic paints are eating my brushes though. My brushes used to last years but not they are worn out after a few months. I might have to find a cheap brush company that make hardy brushes. The synthetic brushes I attempted to use just didn't work for me. BitsHammer 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
