Thanks a lot! The dirt was just simple drybrushing with the same colors as on the base. I do it with pretty much every model! Cheers! Someone asked me this on my plog on Dakka, so I'll just copy-paste from there:

Lots of Farstriders getting painted lately, I got mine done as well! Also, I've totally forgot to post my Cursebreakers here, so let's correct that:

My first finished Nightvault warband, Thorns of the Briar Queen.

The card was included as a freebie in last December's White Dwarf, so now your best bet would be eBay. Or you could look up the card sides from Google and print your own. The giant is just the regular AoS Aleguzzler Gargant, yes.

It's been too long since I got to post a warband here! I finished Spiteclaw's Swarm last night, can't wait to get a game in with them.

The Khorgorath has the right sized base, I was thinking of using it when I some day get to play the Gargant scenario.

These are absolutely brilliant! Looking forward to seeing the whole crew together. Weirdly enough, I really like how you painted that mushroom. Aren't Blood Axes the 40k Orks that wear camo? They look more like Evil Sunz to me.. But in any case, great paintjob! I like how you still have some purple in the skin, seems a little more alive than just gray.

Sounds like you're spraying from too far, the paint dries up before hitting the model, which produces the dusty look. Also make sure that you warm the can and shake it properly before painting. I haven't used Corax White myself, but I'm fairly certain that the paint is OK. In the future though, it saves you a lot of money to just buy the cheapest spray primer you can find from your local hardware store! And regarding rescuing your models, look into paint stripping. I won't go any further into it as I don't know what products you have available locally. Here's a great video about using any spray cans, Luke fixed any issues I had with spray cans:

Nice work on those Stormcasts! The blue-gray flame effects and Stormsire's head seem to have come out especially well, and that green armor is a shade I don't think I've previously seen. Your bases are also painted really well, though I would've tried some other color than green for the stones, to introduce a little more contrast. It's also really nice to see paintjobs on the new teams. It will probably be quite a while before I'll buy Nightvault as I'm only half-way through Shadespire, but I'm still very exited for all the new warbands that have been released/teased.

Those are positively badass! --- I finally got my Boyz done! I guess instead of Ironskull, my boss' name should be Copper'ead These were on a hiatus since the end of July, but I thought that I'd get them finished in honor of Orktober. Really happy with how they came up! The recipes for orange and skin came from Tale of Painters' Amy, big thanks to her for sharing!

Really cool conversions!

Wow, those are really bright! It's nice to see some alternate color schemes for the khorne boys, you don't get too many of those..

Great looking gang! The "goblin green" adds a funky old school flair to the standard khorne scheme.

I finally finished my merry men of Khorne last night, and with that also the core set. Painting these guys was again something new with the amount of flesh and faces. I'm very happy with the paintjobs overall, the lighter skintones might have a tad too much contrast, but that's probably good for the tabletop. For the eyes and teeth I tried a 10/0 brush, which made things a lot easier and surprisingly hassle free, though I had to rinse the brush pretty much after every stroke. This was also the first time trying out the blood paint, lots of fun! I ended up doing some unintentional "conversion" work on this warband, as halfway through painting I noticed that I had shaved of one of Saek's horns while cleaning up the models I then removed the other one as well, as he might have looked a bit silly with only one horn.

Stunning paintjob! I really like those scratches, especially on the hammerhead. Mine's just smooth metal, and can look a bit plain..
