Tabletop Warhammer?

I really like the colour scheme on that - is that a particular faction or just your own creation?

I'm actually thinking of doing just some simple snow basing... I love snow basing

Yup it's deathwatch

Ah I see they're entirely separate models too, very nice.

Managed to set up a little painting station with a scrap bit of desk, some IKEA legs and a £35 Amazon light!

Can paint in the evenings now!

vanpeebles · 29 Oct 2020 at 21:04

I like it, looks a nice a setup

Eyes look great. Really emulates a glow.

Starting to have a little craving for 40k now. Got a little itch for Space wolves!!!

This hobby really isn't cheap. At this rate think I'm going to have the complete GE paint range!!

It's not quite as expensive or addictive as Crack Cocaine, but it's not far off...

I just ended up ordering the new Blood Bowl undead team this morning (they've got werewolves, I have to

), and ended up getting the cards, the field, and the dice which are possibly the best team Dice GW have done in ages (they're easy to read, nice colours that match the team and normal materials).
I was only going to get the dice and cards, and leave the actual models.

They won't arrive for another couple of weeks unfortunately

Contrast paints are a game changer when paining boyz!

vanpeebles · 16 Nov 2020 at 08:02

Looking good!! What you doing for the bases?

Werewolf · 16 Nov 2020 at 18:37

he's a smart boy

I wish the contrast paints had been around when I did my nids.
Having said that I've still got a load left to finish off/do.

I still have my boxed blood bowl from when I was a teenager, I was in two minds to strip the figures, but instead I'm going to try and finish them off, the best I can. I stripped the metal orcland raiders, but left the two plastic teams as how I painted them years ago.

Bigpig · 17 Nov 2020 at 06:34

Picked up a few contrast paints in my last order to paint my Realm Lords with. Can't wait to get stuck in.

Definitely recommend grabbing the newer teams - the game hasn't changed but the quality of the plastics are amazing now. I've got humans, dwarfs, elves painted and starting on undead although the "new" new undead team this week looks brilliant

They do look lovely, but I'd love to finish my old ones

Have used Astrogranite Debris for my first 5 boyz, but just ordered some Agrellan Badlands and some tufts to use going forward as I wasn't super impressed by the Astrogranite Debis tbh, just looks like sandy grey with no cracking or anything interesting!

Have a box of boyz to paint and going to really try and get my brush control better to they're neater

This week I seem to have mostly been doing rats, and finishing off my Cawdor gang after about 2 years in basecoat!

Bomb rats!

And some giant molerats I 3D printed.
