Hails all,
Pledge for the weekend is to continue the glacial progress being made on my Reikland Reavers. However, the end is now actually in sight. The painting itself has been finished and I’m moving onto transfers today. Transfers are something I’ve had mixed results with in the past but I was really happy with the finish I got on my Admech after using Microset and Micrsol. This time I’m putting transfers on some quite uneven surfaces so I’ve decided to paint the areas with Ard Coat beforehand and then give a coat of Lahmian Medium afterwards to tone down the gloss finish. I have a test piece drying as I type this so I’ll give it a look shortly and see how I feel.
Questions:
1. I paint a lot of different minis for different games so in the name of consistency I usually stick with set colour schemes. When I work on something more individual like the Batman Miniatures Game then I get a bit more playful. I’ll still have an overall idea of where I want to go but I experiment a lot more on the way there as I know I won’t have to remember what I’m doing to match another mini six months later.
2. December. I’m a Christmas nut and I love the whole buzz of it all month.
3. I’m currently set up at my gaming table as it’s been sadly ungamed on for months but usually I have a table set up in a room upstairs that I work from. Only time I move is when I have a lot of airbrushing to do as I don’t have proper ventilation.
That tank looks stunning. That sort of historical gaming is something I constantly have to hold myself back from. My housemate is a war history geek and it would be great to have a game he wanted to play but I already play so many things.
Sounds…
Aside from mundane stuff like work and training, generally the only thing I regularly go to is live music and it has been sorely missed this year. I’ve bought tickets to loads of streamed gigs and I love how many musicians and bands are getting together (digitally at least) to play music.
