Vintersorg Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Since I've just started playing Warhammer again, I'll take the occasion to start a painting log (it may motivate me to paint more :D). I just bought my first get started box yesterday, so I haven't really done much (I glued most of the blood throne and 1 bloodcrusher, and started painting the Bloodcrusher). So the first pics will arrive in a few days. I can already post a few random pictures of the few things I've been painting on the last year: the first one is a picture from an aborted attempt to start a Malignants army, about a year ago. I'm overall quite happy with it (except for the obvious mould line on the gravestone) The second one is a commission for a friend. I received the model glued and undercoated and just painted it. Also here. I'm quite happy with the result, though it does show my painting skills are somewhat rusty The final one is not an Age of Sigmar pic, but a 40k one. I picked this commissar for the fun of painting it. This project has stalled since november because I just moved and this mini is still in a box in the garage... Well, that's it for starters.

Vintersorg Posted February 2, 2018 Author Share Posted February 2, 2018 First (small) update. I've started painting the bloodletters and also the Juggernauts (I will do the riders separately).The plan for tonight is to finish the Bloodletter standard bearer at the very least. Before the end of the weekend, I'd like to finish 2-3 bloodletters and at least one of the Juggernauts (but it's Super Bowl weekend, so this is not exactly the best weekend for me to start trying to advance much in painting :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintersorg Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 Well, my progress was way to slow this week... During the entire week, I only managed to advance somewhat on the first Juggernaut (not even the rider!), and it's still far from finished: Note, the paint on the base is the Martian Ironearth one. I wasn't yet dry at the moment I took the pic, so the fissuring effect isn't yet visible and it looks somewhat...failed on the pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutty Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Nice! The yellow eye really stands out against the rest of the model, and picking out the edge of the socket gives it a nice and subtle OSL feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintersorg Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 Well, disaster struck last week, as I've had a piping accident in the house. The water seeped from the upper floor right into my man-cave, and on my models. It was filthy water , filled with dust and stuff. I've given the models to a friend of mine who is better than me at removing paint from plastic mini's and I hope I have them back soon. But it seems I'll have to restart everything again. However, I haven't been inactive as I finally bought that huge Age of Sigmar starter set and I've started work on the bloodreavers. (I'm storing the Stormcast Eternals for a later project). I've been painting since sunday and I haven't finished a single model yet. But the first Bloodreavers are well on their way to being finished. Here's already a small preview of how they'll look like. I obviouslky still need to do the boots, the weapons, the chaos symbol and I need to work on the horns. But I'm quite happy with the overall result until now. I expect the first batch of 5 to be finished tonight, but I'll need to pick up the pace as far as painting is concerned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Nice strong colours! Commiserations on the flooding, but a fresh start can be reinvigorating sometimes so since you can't do anything about it anyway you may as well try to make the best of it!
