  1. Thanks, thankfully already have a colour scheme from mini morathi, but it’s going to be a long slog!
  2. It’s been a while since my last contract, but no better way to start the new year for motivation! For January it’s just to finish off the Shadow Queen. Here’s a WIP
  3. Instead of picking up a new army my resolution is to actually finish one! I don’t think I’ve ever actually finished a whole army, I’ve got plenty at 2K and my complete bonereapers are closer to 5K but I always have a load of unfinished models for a faction before the next new shiny wins... So 2021 will be the year that I’m actually going to finish one, or hopefully two with my Bonereapers and Daughters. Remaining Bonereapers - 6 Stalkers, just a few highlights to add - Soulreaper - Vokmortion - 3 Morghast -Converted female Liege Kavalos Remaining DoK - Blade Coven, just the metallics - 20 Witches - 2 Cauldrons - 5 Khinerai - 10 Blood Sisters - Shadow Queen Sureoy that’s all achievable in a year... I would say bonus points for finishing it all before buying any new models but we all know that isn’t gonna happen!!
  4. That looks pretty good, I’ll check it out thanks!
  5. Still no good update from me Although the progress that everyone’s making is so awesome hopefully I should start to have a bit more time to get in with hobby coming up, only issue is that I’m having to give up my hobby space for more home office space, damn you Covid! Trying to sort out some kind of portable hobby station for the time being, and then a longer term plan of setting something up in the attic (it’s properly insulated and floored!). Any suggestions and recommendations are welcome
  6. @Urauloth do it, join us! I have to restart this month anyway due to life kinda taking over the last few weeks. So you won’t be behind
  7. Halfway is great! Some of us have barely started... Although losing a weekend to a&e doesn’t help!
  8. @Kamose There’s a fair bit of going back and forth but this is the general idea and steps: 1. Zenithal prime, diluted black wash and then a white dry brush over the top. 2. Airbrush glaze of naggaroth night over the whole membrane. 3. Airbrush glaze of blood angels red over the lightest areas to build up some of the more pinky colour. 4. Layer of naggaroth night into the V of the wings which was then feathered out. I had to repeat this a couple of times to build up the deep purple in the recesses as the paint should be really thin. 5. Another couple of glazes of blood angels red in the middle of the membrane, gradually getting more focussed on the middle. 6. Wash of Druchii violet into the edges to darken down even more. 7. Two glazed of Druchii violet over the whole membrane to bring everything back together. 8. Lastly pick out the veins with flayed one flesh When glazing I was using 1 part paint to 4 parts medium. Tldr; zenithal and sketch under shading then overlapping glazes
  9. Good ideas, especially the hair, I managed to find some cool pictures of purple fading into pink so will give that a go. Sisters definitely seem the hardest but since I’m focussing on snakes mainly I was just going to do a single block of 30 witches and ignore the sisters for now
  10. Thanks @hughwyeth @Kramer Need to work out how to keep that colour going through the rest of the models too
  11. It’s been a very slow start, after making some really good progress in May to get things cleared up to start this project I’ve hit the hobby slump... I have at least managed to get the wing membranes done on the khinerai
  12. Nope, should be 25mm and the others should be on 40mm... But I’m doing all the bases separately so just super glued them all to spare 32s to paint
  13. Slight change to the plan, new goal is this lot. Primed and ready to start tomorrow! Hag Queen 5 Khinerai 5 Blood Sisters
  14. Well I failed at not touching the model, or painting more of it but... the deathriders are finally finished after about 3 months of procrastination!
  15. It’s just plain air dry clay. Works well for the roller but the sides are a bit messy, will need to do something to tidy them up before priming
  16. I’ll split this away from the warlords pledge and go with finish off Katakros, it’s just this bit to finish but the details will take quite a while to get just right. Heres a work in progress shot of him.
  17. Good luck! This is going to turn out to be better motivation than anything else to get my bonereapers finished too! So there’s something to that. Back on topic, I’m going to redo the zenithal primer on my daughters after trying a few things that I didn’t like. And my green stuff world roller arrived so started on a couple of bases too.
  18. Previously I have pretty much always followed a faction scheme, I know boring right? But recently with my current (they're nearly done...) bonereapers army I branched out a little bit and tried to create a new scheme and really pushed the basing. That said I never really thought of how that fit into the narrative, and have only just started trying to pigeonhole it into something. I really enjoyed pushing the bases with that army so am looking to do again with the Daughter's. I was thinking of doing some kind of ancient Khainite temple, crumbling away and overrun with Melusai who still see themselves as there former incarnations before they were tainted by Slaanesh. I did have a cool display board idea of a giant one-way mirror a wall in the middle with one side being the meulsai in a ruined templae and the other witch aelves in a plush sparkling one to show off the delusion. Still need to think of a colour scheme though. One idea was lots of different scale patterns for the snakes, say each 5 will have different markings. That's about as far as I've got at the moment, if anyone has any great ideas let me know 🙂
  19. Good luck with that! I say it every time and guess what... ooohh new shiny, must buy 🤣
  20. What sort of scheme are you going for? One of the cults or something left field? There’s something about really pushing the quality on an elite army that just can’t be matched by hordes. I suppose it’s probably seeing a bit of progress even if you’ve just spent hours on one tiny detail.
  21. I really like the Arcanite Tzeentch models, got a bare bones 2k army of them already. Enjoy painting all that gold trim though! I’m up in Scotland so not a million miles away from London, so who knows, there might be a chance of a game or two eventually!
  22. So I’m going to start with what’s already built and primed for June. Medusa 5x Blood Sisters 5x Khinerai Heartrenders As you’ll see there’s plenty more in the box... Ive not decided how to build most of them yet, but the idea was to build towards a Temple Nest plus a bit on the side.
  23. All this chat of Tale of X warlords makes me want to join in! My gaming group is rather small so something like this wouldn’t work for us. Maybe we could start one in June with one unit Battleline and a Hero?
