Reply To: What Are You Painting Now?

So I don’t know if this thread is still open but I’m taking my chances. Here are some Dwarf Miners:

Oh, these poor Dwarves. If miniatures could talk, these guys would certainly have put me down in the book of grudges. I got the Battle for Skull Pass box set over ten years ago for the goblins, which I also never completed, but the Dwarves were never even started, until it did IT. I got a can of yellow spray to prime a Lord of Change, and once that was done, I realized I was stuck with a can of yellow spray paint and since I don’t collect Imperial Fists…

By the time I realized what I had done it was too late. The poor, poor Dwarves were covered in mustard yellow, and I had even gotten carried away and over sprayed some. The poor stunties never knew what hit them. I tried to make amends by soaking them in Simple Green for a week, which worked before. Only it wasn’t working so well this time and the yellow paint was not coming off, and then I lost patience and got out the rotary tool… and if look carefully at the poor standard bearer above to see how well that turned out.

Now, I’m taking one last crack at doing the Skull pass Dwarves some justice, starting with these miners. If it doesn’t work, I’ll take the Slayer Oath, but I’m hoping it doesn’t come to that. One; stripes are not my color. Two; wearing nothing but pants is fine now, but come November it will be a different story. Three; I am way too old to be sporting a red mohawk.
