Hi All,
I just want to let you know about an event that is happening this Thursday (26th May). Myself and The Two Gamer Radio Crew (Rob and Gill) are going to be painting a tournament army from undercoated to finished in a single day. More interestingly from your perspective we will be tweeting about it throughout the day with pictures. If you are interested in following this event on Twitter then please follow all or some of us at:

More info:
There has been a lot of talk recently about the declining standards of painted armies on the UK WFB Tournament scene. At Two Gamer Radio we have already ranted about this but for once in our lives have decided to try and do something positive about the situation. We are going to paint up a 2400pts ETC Lizardmen army that has been assembled and undercoated in a single day. Just so you know we haven’t chosen a silly elite force which would be ultra quick here is the list to be painted:
Slann
2 Mounted Scar Vets
20 Saurus
20 Saurus
24 Skinks w/3 Krox
10 Skink sKirmishers
Stegadon
3 Terradons
3 Terradons
6 Chamo Skinks
6 Chamo Skinks
2 Salamander Packs
As a basis for our standards we are going to try and get full points from the Call to War painting scoring system (a recent UK tournament) and will actually be having the painting judge from the event to come over and mark the army. The five points we get marked on are: Tidiness, 3 colours, shading, basing and cohesiveness. We want to show how with a few tricks and a lot of sugary drinks how easily these standards can be met and how it can leave you with a nicely painted army.
One the army is finished I will post up pictures here as well as talk about what was learned over the day and post some tips for effectively and quickly painting an army that looks decent. Also I imagine there will be coverage on Two Gamer Radio Podcast*(search for a tale of two gamers on Google or itunes).
Cheers for reading this far,
Paul Brown
*Warning it contains strong language, adult themes and often leaves the realm of good taste, oh and production values are sometimes shall we say amateur (particularly when we record in the pub). But at times there is some really good Warhammer chat.
** Unseen Lurker’s latest magazine features an article on painting a Lizardmen army in 10 hours we may have been to a lesser or greater extent influenced by that not really sure. Anyway why not check out their magazine you can view a quarter of it online for free before you decide to buy so why have a look?
