About the Project

This is my first Project, but with Contrast paints just released I thought it was the right time to try and complete a board game. I wouldn’t use the contrast paints at this stage for my 40k armies as I have a set colour scheme for them but, I really think these will help with board games. I have shelves full of games I have bought off Kickstarter so thought I would go for the green hoard. Orcs are usually very uniform, dark and dirty so I think the models lend themselves to contrast paints. I am going to stick to purely contrast paints for the main part of the minis. I may use normal GW paints on the eyes, teeth and maybe some silver just to accent any weapons. I would normally just paint the bases a solid colour as it’s a board game, my modern Zombicide zombies have different coloured bases to note if there walkers or fatties or runners etc. so they stand out on the board. I will see how good they look and then either go with a solid brown base or use a texture paint. I don’t want to spent long on these and want to production line them. Let’s see how I get on!
