“Prussonian” Astra Militarum Army VLOG Part 30
February 27, 2018 by johnlyons
Hello everybody! Today's vlog is for everybody as the Prussonians are getting some real fancy transport!
As you guys can see, I am still busy working away on getting everybody up to the same level before jumping in with some new areas to work on.
I'm much happier with the wash on the infantry now that I have thinned it down with the mixing medium. They still look shaded but not as "dirty" But don't worry, I have a feeling the highlighting will bring their contrast back up.
And then we get onto creating the outlines for the Prussonians own Battle Foam trays! The pressure starts now to complete the army and have it ready for its first journey to the Prague 40k Open.
Anybody out there using custom Battle Foam trays? What do you think of the army so far? Let me know in the comments below.
Can’t complain about being a lefty, we count amongst others, Churchill, Einstein and Da Vinci as some of ours.
And as I learned recently, most Muppets. The puppeteers tended to be right-handed, using their favoured hand to operate the head. You’re in excellent company!
When tracing with your left hand on the right side, turn the paper upside down and trace on the left side. I’ve never submitted for custom foam, but the process is still interesting. Good luck on the display!
I like the lighter wash procedure that you’ve used. It really is helping the figures really pop.
Thanks for showing off the process of tracing the minis for custom Battlefoam trays. It helps me think about whether I’d like to do custom trays.
JOHN, check your sheets you put no. 17 when it was no. 16. check your numbers
don’t worry saw your amendmant in you pics below, Good John
that is a great service for the personal scratch builder’s.
These minis are looking awesome John! I really think they look absolutely great as 40k Imperial Guard. In fact, one of the things I look for in my human minis is in fact a bit on the small side. I’m not a fan of very large 28mm human minis, as it just makes everything look smaller, even the terrain elements.
I almost missed this one :O
