About the Project

This is my first look into Wild West Exodus and the new Showdown at Retribution Two Player Starter Set. I plan to build and paint up some miniatures. I still have to decide if I am Enlightened or the Union. Right now, I am leaning towards the Enlightened faction as my slow grow army.

My Watcher Miniatures for Wild West Exodus are now complete. Below are some pictures of them. For more, check out my personal site, Must Contain Minis, and also check out Bell of Lost Souls too. I write for both websites.

Upon further inspection of my new-to-me used Watcher minis, I noticed that one was missing a leg. To hide the issue, I used The Army Painter Glistening Blood Effects. I have more about that on my personal site.

Below are some pictures of the finished Alien.

For more on blood effects, I talk about how I use it on other minis midway through my How to Paint the Enlightened article.

In addition to the Enlightened, I also got my hands on some Watcher Greys as a second faction. Today I worked on painting their bases black. Next step is adding in the basing materials.

For those who prefer written content, I posted up a tutorial on my site on how to use brush on primer. For this post, I used the minis of Wild West Exodus: Showdown at Retribution.

Check it out!!! How to Use Brush-On Primer for Miniatures on MCM.

 

Here I ran into some issues with the primer. I explain it in the article and in the video that I shared earlier.Here I ran into some issues with the primer. I explain it in the article and in the video that I shared earlier.

In my latest YouTube video, I teach people how to prime miniatures using brush on primer. Specifically, I am using The Army Painter, but these techniques should work with any brand of primer.

The miniatures that I used for this video all come from the new two player starter set for Wild West Exodus.

Please give it a watch. A lot of production went into this short video.

With my Enlightened painted, I decided to write a complete tutorial on how I painted them. That tutorial is available on my personal website. You can visit the article here.

The quick of it is that I used a 5 step process in painting the miniatures.

  • Prime the miniature
  • Base coat the mini
  • Shade the miniature
  • Highlights and effects
  • Basing materials

It is a quick way to paint good looking miniatures.

Until next time, Happy Gaming Everyone!!!

With my Enlightened Posse complete, I decided to focus on my Watchers again. This time, I acquired a bunch of Greys and a couple of higher level minis too.

Check these guys out.

The first thing I had to do was fix those three minis off their bases.

They were very easy to fix. Just need a little bit of glue. They were very easy to fix. Just need a little bit of glue.

The next step is to paint their bases black and add some basing materials.
