About the Project

About a month ago Space Crusade was mentioned with regards to Dungeonalia. I have a copy of it which I haven't looked at for about 30 years. I've dug it out and even played a game with my daughter but can I paint it all?

I’m showing my age but I probably painted these orks 30-35 years ago. They were press ganged into 40k games at some point. Now they are going in the Dettol. The plan is to paint everything in Space Crusade for Dungeonalia. A challenge. Yes.

Just add Orks and a Genestealer for extra flavour.

Time to clean up

The orks are out of the Dettol and added to the rest to be cleaned up before priming. I’m working on the orks and gretchin first.

They’ve been primed with ColourForge Matt Black and drybrushed with a grey and then white. Army Painter speed paints next.

Been working on the skin today. Experimenting with two different greens. AP Orc Skin for the gretchin and AP Charming Chartreuse for the orks.

I have finally finished painting all the Orks and Gretchin. I’ve been thinking about basing. I was going to do fancy spaceship bases but don’t have time for that so I’m going to some use some old AP basing material I have laying around and see what I can do with that

I lightly drybrushed rust over the grey stones to create a uniform effect. I might go back to these at some point but I’m happy.
