About the Project
Finally painting my dream armies from when I was 12. I'm now 42. I've managed to rescue most of my favorite minis from the horrible thick paint and dust and I've started painting them trying to get the old eavy metal look. I have not got a steady hand, but I have no problem spending a lot more time per mini than I did back in the day.

Test blood bowl orks
Chestnut ink is great with yellow. Doesn't really show up because of my poor camera but it makes everything much warmer than other shadesTexture paste test of patience.
I hate this paste but I started using it and now I’m just matching the other miniatures I’ve already done. It looks good when done and it is cheap but it’s a nightmare to put on quickly when the minis are slotta based.
One of my favourite minis work in progress
Wish I had a better camera makes it look really patchy. A brake from orks
Will probably strip and paint again as mistakes along the way have added some really bad texture in places but I like this colour scheme.
