Blog Painting of Renown! (Just kidding... but this is my blog)

Not too impressed with the details as it seems like they will very easily lose the folds, etc.

That's unfortunate.

Living up to your lovely Forge World sculpts was always going to be a tall task. We'll have to wait and see how they look next to their comrades once they are all painted up.

Bah...

Anyways, these will be next once I get round to doing the basing on the others.

I would have thought the detail would have been better.

I have had an issue with tiny teeth not showing up on an ordered 3D print, but I would have figured the wrinkles/folds/warts on those froggies would have still shown up. Unfortunate :hungover:

Yeah... I need to finish the basing on the others and then get going on these. Hopefully with a light undercoat, thing basecoats and good drybrushing/washes, the folds, etc. come out at least basically okay.

They're going to have to as I can't be bothered to wait for another two weeks to get the Beasts project done.

At least you'll have it done and enjoy a rush of serotonin afterwards!
 
In other news, the Rot Toads arrived and I have glued them to their bases. (I'm leaving the one tongue until it's paint to put it in, otherwise will be impossible to paint the inside of the mouth.

Gah!

Models got knocked over by the wife and surgery is needed. I need to use this momentum to get back onto my painting.

This is the gods speaking to me, telling me to complete the models... Just not sure if it's Nurgle relishing his pets coming alive or Khorne punishing me for being unfaithful to him...

Darn gravity! That sucks, man, but I'm sure it's nothing a little super glue can't remedy
 
So painting is on hold currently as I magnetize all my armies and move them into a magnetic storage.

I realized that having each unit easily accessible will actually help me be able to play some smaller games which will tide me over for the larger ones once lockdown is over (damn you coronavirus and damn you UK government). It will also help me continue to train my wife on 8th edition with skirmishes.

Next is my Tomb Kings to magnetize, having my skeleton legions accessible will make for more gameplay. Watch the Other Armies subform @NIGHTBRINGER ! :D

Okay, so all three PTs are assembled now. Per Royal Mail tracking my undercoat sprays should arrive today.... [cue Jaws theme tune]

I ordered both black and white sprays. The official guide says white, but some videos say definitely do black as it makes it easiers to handle recesses on the model (as they will already be dark).

Can anyone weigh in on which I should use? Thanks guys.
