Moonstalker Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) TITH I decided against 3d printed chapter badges for my marines' pauldrons. I glued them on one squad, and I just wasn't satisfied with the fit, the detail, or the way they stood out from and (IMO) ruined the profile of the marines. So I get to bust them all off and sand the superglue off the models. Not that 3d printed shoulder emblems can't be cool/good, but I think I'm going to have a lot more success with traditional transfers, even if I have to design and print my own (I have to order out for 3d prints, since I don't own a resin printer).

Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 TITHI took advantage of some good weather to prime slash base coat some more marines—scouts of various stripe and wargear, some 3d printed tarantulas, and some power armor marines.

ThePenitentOne Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 My March challenge- a seven-strong Fire Team of Imperial Nobles (AKA Threshers)- is finished except for the boltgun ring around the base and a quick drybrush on the nylon mesh. My painting light burnt out, so I'll finish and post them tomorrow. Then I can get to work on a quick upgrade of my Wych Cult Arena for the Sumpheap Scrap. I am really proud of the Threshers, but I didn't get anything done for Anger and Arrogance in March. It will actually be my priority for April- five Wyches should go faster than seven necromunda models. My March challenge will be finishing the second 5-Strong Wych Cult; one of the models is mostly done, so I didn't pledge it for A&A. It's understrength and I wanted to pledge a legal unit. With two 5-strong Fire Teams of Wyches, I will finally be able to bat-rep the special Kill Team mission.

Rusted Boltgun Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 I have a Marine to test a paint scheme for my Strikeforce and get back into painting. My first time trying to actually thin paints (not very successfully) and use a wet palette. A long way to go...

Magos Takatus Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 TITH I learned the term 'grimdark' is now being used to describe highly detailed realistic Pokemon art... Ha! That is hilarious. Clearly I'm not the only one that is simultaneously interested in the grimdark of 40k and Pokemon. I've seen creepy Pokemon pictures in the past but I've never heard them use that term before. Now my brain is imagining a young Ork Yoof trying to trap various weird and colourful squigs in a small capsule. Probably without much success. :p Doctor Perils 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/418/#findComment-5810931 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 TITHI finished an outrider, who was originally started last summer for a local painting comp. Two more models and that entire kill team will be complete, and I’m only waiting on a trim paint, really, to finish them.

Rusted Boltgun Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Today I ordered a Kill Team: Octarius box having managed to convince my two tabletop buddies that they would like a new skirmish game to play in six months.

NiceGuyAdi Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 TitH I knocked together a Kill Team board, as I really don't like the creases in roll up or paper ones. Very quick job with some Polyfilla and a sponge: Followed by a blast with black/grey/white rattle cans. The black one is evil and leaks more paint down the side than it sprays but the drips actually worked in my favour, like oil patches: I'd like to get some oil washes on it at some point, but I'm really happy considering how quick it was to make. It also makes a nice board for miniature pics. Bonus!

ThePenitentOne Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 I haven't posted in a while but I've been steadily working on wyches. One unit, my April pledge for 12 Months should be done by the end of the weekend... Maybe by the end of the night. Then I've got 5 more Wyches (different Cult) as an Anger and Arrogance Pledge.
