Zephaniah Adriyen Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 TITH, I purchased a Finecast Lictor and a pack of Hormagaunts brand-new from my FLGS. My boi Tony (who, as a counterpoint, is That Guy who Ignores Errata) up and gave me his old-school Broodlord, without me asking. So I have 200 points of 'Nids. I'm painting them up in Kraken colors, then adding some kinda splinter fleet markings; I can paint all but one, who is getting an albino sort of paint scheme later on when I get some white Contrast and pale blue. Well, that was nice of him. Which changes me original thought of "hit him with the rulebook" in response to your thread about how to deal with him Anyways, TITHI started working on my Knight for my ETL Vow. Gonna try and get more of it done before I get some sleep in, since I've got at least three and a half hours until then Ay, he's a nice enough dude, he just does that one thing which irks me.

Ace Debonair Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Today in the hobby I finished the rest of the squad to go with my Reiver sergeant:Not based properly since I've run out of greenstuff, but good enough for now.

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 TITHI primed more parts of my Seraptek and got a little more spiritstone down in the recesses. Progress is slow but steady. The center, though...*shudders* so many tiny details.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitsHammer Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Last night I did a quick test model using the Crusaders chapter paint scheme: So yeah, despite how quick this was, it works pretty darn well and didn't get too crazy on paint colors (the armour only uses 5 and with thinner glaze coats and a zenithal it'll likely pop even more). Now to work on making candles, adding green stuff sculpting to models and buying Grey Knight kits to cannibalize... thewarriorhunter and Dosjetka 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BitsHammer Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I picked up some Milliput for my Crusader model conversion and started to put real work into writing my Black Library submission. I'll call this up as a win for productivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viridia Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) TITHI finally picked up my green stuff, hopefully to crack on with this last vow over the next couple of days, as well as a box of Scourges and a Dark Elf sorceress to use for converting a Inquisimunda corsair warband. YITHI also finished reading Titandeath, now to crack on with Slaves to Darkness and The Solar War. EDIT; TITHI found the green stuff I thought I'd accidentally thrown away on my cutting board. Feeling like an absolute grot at the moment. Edited August 24, 2019 by Viridia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your camera has problems focussing try taking the picture from further away. You can always crop it later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is I take pictures with my phone and can't always see the problem until after I drop things since it looks in focus before cropping.

Vykes Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Well, today in the hobby I finished up the major oil-related portion of my ETL Alpha legion platoon vow, was watching my fun little show... dropped the sicaran I was working on, stepped on a sharpened 6 cm piece of paperclip used for pinning, and had my favourite OTP crushed in the final minute of a series finally within the span of 35 seconds. Okay, the last one's not hobby related, but it's still contributing to this all, too. REJOICE FRATERS, FOR I FEEL THE BITE OF THE NAILS! When I fix the Sicaran, IE wash off and let it dry, touch up any chipped paint, then it shall be shown... Contrast paint is still paint and aethermatic is a nice shade. But, they don't take weathering powder as nicely as I'd like. So more oil and powder I think.

thewarriorhunter Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It took about five times to get it how I wanted, and thanks for the compliment! I saw another model painted up that way and did my best to copy it. I used DW Acrylic inks for it: Black, Purple, and White. I base coated the sword black and then lightly started brushing on and blending the purple and white to get the colors and shading that I wanted. I then went back over with the black to darken up a couple areas. I edge highlighted with the white. I was trying to get a dark ethereal feeling with the sword. I didn't want it to be really bright, but rather seem dark and deep and glowing with power. Here's the picture I originally saw and tried to copy: BitsHammer and Zephaniah Adriyen 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephaniah Adriyen Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 TITH, I got gifted the Eldar Apoc box for my birthday (was two days ago, party was today) and proceeded to build both Wraithlords. One with flamers and scatter las, the other with bright lances and shuriken cannons. Both have swords. I also built one Wraithguard with D-Scythe and the Spiritseer. Finally, I started work on a Chaplain for ETL. BitsHammer 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
