The Painting Contract - March 2020


Recommended Posts

First time pledge. Going to attempt to paint a Witch Selves unit (10). I have never painted a full unit before. I get discouraged easily so will be trying to do most of it with contrast to cut out some steps. I will also attempt to build a Slaughter Queen on Cauldron of Blood and 15 doomfire warlocks.

Finally, the sky-wardens are done. Pictures coming soon, once the paint dries, on the other hand OH MY GOD MY ENDRINMASTER AHHHHHHHHHHHH The wonders of super glue are truly a sight to behold We must resort to the last option: EPOXY. Thanks for listening to that update.

I am going to be doing some basing, and for that I need to paint sand. Is this a Good Thing or a Bad Thing?  This is my plan as of now, might add this to goals.  Edit: Basing looks good woohoo. First time basing a miniature, first time super gluing a mini, and soon I can decorate his base.

So i kinda suck at painting, escpecially to the pictures shown above by @Fellman and @Skreech Verminking, but for those who wish to see you are welcome to see. In the middle of getting them based, re-flight-standing my endrinmaster (I had to scrap half the back thruster piece :( ) but they are getting there. The gunhauler is a WIP, as in I barely even have begun, but I will get around to it. And then I also think I might leave em plain, scatter some larger rocks among the bases, but leave it sand, because I really like the look of them right now.

Put them some Agrax Earthshade and they will improve a lot!

Working on some warriors to Nurgle, using the tutorial posted by Tyler Mengel on the community page (with couple of minor tweaks). Iam Doing 15 of these guys at once so each session has been to do 1 or 2 steps so as you can imagine it’s taken a while and I still have quite a bit to do, but I am in no rush.

And the endrinmaster, on his flight stand and based. He is looking good and I will having some agrax earthshade arriving sometime this week hopefully, thx @Jymmy, hopefully I can improve their look. Never used a shade, first army, so this should be quite exciting!

Banshees finally finished ....did a bit of a sloppy job :/ , paint is to thick on many places, but overall colors comes close to what I had in mind, that is at least something. I kinda thought of them as being "white ladies"

I really wanted to finish it after many troubles I had with building and painting them. Can't wait to start with Lady Olynder.

Managed to get a fair bit done the last few days, have a 1000pt event coming up that’s really helping with motivation. Really enjoying painting the Mawtribes at the moment! These photos were taken in the evening so the quality could be better, apologies.

Well, here we go. 1st model in a year and 4 months. I haven’t got to my basing materials yet (not that that helps much regardless) 

This character fluff and model were my first inspiration to AoS and I decided come hell or high water, I would have this model and he would herald the new Stormcast army. He’s supposed to be in Knights Excelsior colours although I couldn’t find an example to paint from. 
The first of the Matorean Knights Excelsior Chamber. Next up the lord Arcanum.

Slow start for me this month, really won't be able to get started until the weekend after next.

However, building some stuff that I'm meaning to get in front of the airbrush. Preparing for my first round of airbrushing that just won't include priming lol.

 

Also will be investing in a photography light box to help improve image quality of photos 🙂.
