First time painting checks on such a large and uneven surface. It was not as fun as it looks
Ok, got the small JTT ferns. I have learned that they are paper after finishing the priming, basecoat and hit with a highlight. I’ll probably hit them with the airbrush and seal asap so the varnish can give them stability. Here’s a comparison between the two sizes.
@robert So much work I feel a little overwhelmed for my single figure by comparison. Good job on keeping at it. The idea of checks on an uneven surface like that makes me cringe as I have tried the same in past. I have come to like masking for my airbrush for just that reason.
@sundancer You’re going right into tartan right past plaid! Slow down from ludicrous speed, man!
@limburger Yes, the party has started. There’s already beer set up, chips on the table and pizza is somewhere on the way.
Its good to get the info about your Kickstarter. I know there’s one series of figures I’m chalking up to being a scam/overwhelmed by the fulfillment process. It took place before the kungflu hit and was reeling from the backlash of the Soda Pop finance fiasco.
I believe there was a Dude figure done at some point. I checked Hasslefree, it seems like something that they’d do, but no luck.
Now for Evil Dead 2, “Save the cheerleader, save the world”… yeah I said your words@dawfydd Long time no see. Again, I see all these minis and I think that there must be some sort of issue with me not punching out these masses of figures. Augh!!! Damn fine to see such a thicc Commisar… wait … I’m looking at another company’s website. My bad.
A bit more progress while listening to Warren’s radio show. All my Warlord naked nudes finally painted and more swingers added to my tribe
I only have the tack left on the Hussar’s horse! I have it basecoated, but I kind of hate painting black, so this is the hardest part of the mini for me… I’m still hoping it can be done in time for Saturday. But here’s the progress.
Also, has anyone played the Song of Ice and Fire game, perchance? I started watching some playthroughs of the game (actually using Tabletop Simulator) and I downloaded the rules. It looks really fun, but it seems quite pricey. I’d love to paint the minis, though…
More work done.. getting close
The horse is now finished. The tack took a little while, but I think it came out alright. Should have the project log up by tomorrow…at some point.
For now I just painted the base a flat colour. I will add texture paint at a later date, but seeing as the mini includes the rider it’s not trully done until he’s finished.
On that subject, here is my currently very John Major-esque (Spitting Image, anyone?) officer just to show the bit that will be hidden once the whole thing is done.
Pledge complete – I got my cyberpunk gang finished.
Yes, I know the bases are a little plain. And, just like I paint eyes now, I also do bases. But not when I started these guys. So it’s boring black disks for this gang. Maybe one day I’ll sprinkle on some sand and drybrush it grey just for completeness. But at the minute, I’m calling these boys done.
I was stuck for cool cyberpunk names for each of the characters, so I named them – from left to right – Gerry, Tom, Ryan, Ben, John, Justin, Warren and Lloyd.
I’ve been trying to get a game going using these minis for about a week now. I sent a load of stuff over to my brother-in-law in Italy; maybe I can get him to join in. 😉
I did some more painting too – but it’s Friday and there’ll be a new thread starting, any minute now….
