    Nothing like getting waylaid by a short month .... even if it was longer than normal ... 😉

    Hello folks and welcome to the Painting Contract for March 2020! If you don't know the rules they are: Each month you post an amount of models that you agree to try to paint/build/convert/sculpt. This can be terrain or models for Age Of Sigmar, Warcry, Blood Bowl, Blitz Bowl, Warhammer Underworlds, Warhammer Quest Silver Tower / Shadows Over Hammerhal, or Gorechosen. On the 28th of the month the contract closes and you can then post your progress images so that they can be critiqued, shared and boasted about. It is a great way to get involved in the community and to get inspiration.  I'm looking forward to seeing everyone share their progress! Enjoy! @Mohojoe & @TheOtherJosh

    Basically what @Vasshpit said... Definitely pinning. I end up supergluing the pin into the base as well... I will add, If you’re going to use paper clips, don’t use your plastic sprue cutters. It will totally destroy them. Use wire cutter specific clippers. (Typically from a hardware store) here’s a good link about the process: http://www.tinyworlds.co.uk/blog/pinning-miniatures-to-resin-bases/ Miliput and resin bases are basically going to be the same process.

    Plastics tend not to strip quite as nicely as metals due to the caustic nature of the really good paint stripping agents. (Simple green is okay...) Mainly because they have a propensity to soften and melt the plastics. 😑 Definitely test your stripping methodology on a mini that you’re not as attached to ...
  13. TheOtherJosh
    Wow ... awesome non metal metalic style on the blade ... very nice!

    Acronyms are an entry tax on new players and cause confusion. Any anything that causes confusion for new players is not good.
  15. TheOtherJosh
    LOL! 🤣 Note to self: I should do this when creating the thread for the month ...
  16. TheOtherJosh
    My goal this month ... burn all the heri... wait ... wrong goal. Correction: Prime: Lady Harrow’s Mournflight Build: Beastgrave Terrain (which didn’t get done from last month...) Build: Underworld Warband Build: Chaos and Bug thing from Warhammer Quest 😎 Stretch: Paint: Lady Harrow’s Mournflight

    The green on the sword aligns with the green on the base giving you a triangle... sword to front flames... front to back flames ... back flames to sword. It works rather well indeed. Might work well with some brighter hilighting on the green ... but it’s pretty awesome ...

    Hey ... don’t worry about where you paint ... any table you paint at is a painting table. (And the magnets look like a great idea!)
  21. TheOtherJosh
    Interesting warrior unit you have ... they must be from the Realm of Chaos ... I hear they get all wonky like that something about time being relative or something! And to think I’m Still trying to get stuff primed ....
  22. TheOtherJosh
    So... completed building the Grymwatch and the Sepulchral Guard (... they’ve been biding time in their box quietly since season 1 ... minus the universal cards ...) Grabbed a small spray tent to do priming in (so I don’t get overspray on stuff and need to keep around a cardboard box for it.) Turns out that the Beastgrave terrain that I thought was “modular” isn’t so much ... but I’ll get it built anyway... maybe even get it primed ...
  23. TheOtherJosh
    Completely with you on the motivation issue. It’s definitely a thing. Take a breather, roll it back to just the building side ... get some games in... See how stuff rolls. We’ll save ya a space here at the table. The members were awesome and saved me a spot.
  24. TheOtherJosh
    @miguel_fernan that sounds like a solidly full plan as a first month for your painting contract! Keep us up to date with pictures as you get stuff finished and move along the month. It looks like you have 23 smaller figures and 3 larger centerpiece units. Thats gonna be great once you get it all done!
  25. TheOtherJosh
    That ... is a whole table-worth of work. 40 horse or smaller sized models and 5 bigger units. We’re rooting for you!
