The Return... maybe... kinda lets see

 

Hey All 

I'm back, well... I'm gonna try get back in to writing about what I have been painting. The main purpose is to keep a record as my armies grow and what colours and techniques I use.

It's been about 4 years since I last wrote on here and there have been a few events that have helped free up time to paint.  

Over this last year and a half I set out to paint a few armies for Age of Sigmar a couple of them were +-2000pts of Orruk Warclans, +-2000pts of Cities of Sigmar and so far 1500pts of Sons of Behemat.

So catching you guys up with what I've done over the last couple of weeks and been trying to find time/energy to put it all together to show off. Writing this blog also help me remember how I painted things when I come back later to finish models. Ok enough chat lets get to what I did after the jump

Painting progress October 2015

Hey all. (that's right I'm not dead)

I've been busy and in May went overseas for 3 months so didn't get a chance to post anything.
In the last year (gosh it has been a while) I finished up a couple of things and I am now working on

10x Howling Banshees
5x Striking Scorpions
1x Karandras
4x Swooping hawks
Gems on my Wraith Knight
Hemlock/Crimson hunter
4x Dark Reapers

5x Wraith guard (scythe)

5x Dire Avenger
1x Dark Reaper Exarch with EML
1x Spiritseer (conversion)
2x Falcons 
1x Waveserpent

I will hopefully be putting up some pics of my progress more often so here's hoping.

Warpspiders colour combinations/Techniques.

Hey guys looking for some advice on a colour scheme/ techniques to use for my Warp Spiders. I've been unable to decide what to do with them and I've found the models to be a little finicky.

So how have you guys painted you Spiders?

Any advice or links to tutorials would be appreciated.

Painting Progress Aug

Hey all just popping it to show how some of my progress I have made to the list of WIP. This last week I've managed to finish the Hawks and that one Dire Avenger so I can field a unit of 10 without an Exarch.

1x Dire Avenger
5x Wraith guard (scythe)

4x Swooping hawks
6x Swooping Hawks
5x Dire Avenger
1x Dark Reaper Exarch with EML
1x Spiritseer (conversion)

I've got a tournament coming up in September (Preferred Enemies) with a few custom mission and it even has a side board. It is 1000pts made up of a 750pt core + (2x 250pt).

I'll keep you informed closer to the date on the missions and on my list.

Painting Progress: Swooping Hawk

coolminiornot

So I started working on painting my Swooping hawks I've always wanted to have the wings rainbow kind of like the above pic from coolminiornot.  I ended up just gluing the wings on as all my drill bits couldn't seem to drill into the model very well and magnets weren't strong enough when they were small enough to be hidden.

Painting Progress July

Hey all I've been a bit slack with the Painting progress posts but I'll try catch you guys up.

At the end of May I had the following to be done.

1x Wraith knight
1x Dire Avenger
5x Wraith guard (scythe)

I managed to get the Wraith knight done to a table top quality. I'm quiet proud of how it ended up. With the Wraith knight being my first huge and expensive kit I didn't want to make any mistakes that couldn't be undone so I took my time doing the magnets and positioning it.

With July mostly done I'll just add to the list some things I've started.

1x Wraith knight

1x Dire Avenger
5x Wraith guard (scythe)

10x Swooping hawks
