About the Project

SO much Burrows and Badgers activity on the site it was hard to not get caught up in it. So at UKGE this year I picked up a bunch of models.. and then ordered a bunch more when I got home. I am not a great painter but I like to think I can get results quickly. This is how I got 21 miniatures done in 10 days with just a couple of hours of effort per day.

This Project is Active

Ok so once the dip was dried I revisited each miniature and just highlighted them where they needed it.

I probably spent an hour on each mini in total, this could have been quicker but I decided to do it on Stream.

Once completed I used Army Painter Matt varnish to remove all the shine left by the dip.

I am very happy with the result they are now at what I think is a good tabletop level ready to be played with. Let me know what you think.

This makes 26 Burrows and Badger miniatures from Oathsworn since UKGE, so we should have enough to keep us going for a while.

So they usual technic up to this point, just get all the base colours down and get good coverage. Once this is done simple paint on the dip going all over and then removing an excessive pooling.

now I just need to wait

Well as you saw I added to the collection and they have arrived. I will give more focus now to breaking down my method and walking you through it.

Even before they are painting I love the look of these new additions.

So if this project does anything I hope it shows that anyone can get good results for the tabletop will not much effort. Certainly, this is helped by some very characterful but simple sculps from Oathsworn which honestly are a joy to paint but this method can be used for anything.

In future, I will start to do a more broken down stages of a project because this was very much an afterthought once I had powered through all the models.

Fortunately, we are not done, yesterday I placed another order for some more miniatures from this range because I just can’t get enough.

So I will follow this same process but do more steps so I can show.

If you have questions do not hesitate to ask me.

I will be back soon.

We are not quite done....
