Blog Look upon My works, ye mighty, and despair... A tomb kings project

Can I get people's thoughts on the color scheme?

 

Good stuff guys, thanks!

 

Nice scheme. But I agree with @Crowsfoot ... the red looks a bit too clean... or the shields in general...

 

I'll throw a sepia wash on the shields

 

50+ undead, 3 chariots, 1 warsphinx. 4.5-5 hours into thier soak.

Issue 1: Alot had varnish so I'm expecting a re-soak.

Issue 2: we had some feet clippage particularly on the ancient thin skeletons from what I think is 2nd edition. I'll betackling this with basing or brown polymer putty (brownstuff?)

 

I'm making custom stone tile bases.

 

What is your paint stripping process? I picked up a couple armies second hand that were painted and would love to repaint them.

 

Metal plastic or resin? Or a mix? If so what types?

 

So, y'all, decisions:

5 more sphinxes ( I have 2)

Or ushabti hordes

Or catapult battery (5)

Or more infantry?

Or chariots?

 

I swore I replied already, sorry. Mostly plastic, some metal.

 

Go to your local dollar tree and get a few of these. Best stuff I've ever used for metal, plastics are close too.

@NIGHTBRINGER your thoughts sir?

 

Thanks! So just an all purpose cleaner and a tooth brush? Do you soak your models or just spray and scrub?

Also for your question I'd love to see some sphinxes.

 

Soak them. Metal models 8 hours, plastics 24 hours, then scrub with a manual toothbrush and warm water

 

Gracias senior!

 

De nada

 

Got as far as this, from primer, on the next 5 tomb guard. This after finishing building commission items which I will switch back to tomorrow.
