Retaliation Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Today in the hobby I spent hours drilling barrels in the guns of 5 terminators, 30+ marines and 6 bikes.

Uprising Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Today in the hobby I learned that nail polish remover melts plastic... Who was the plastic miniature that got melted? If your trying to remove paint use simple green, it removes but does melt anything. Warning, it takes a week or two to remove the paint. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/274679-today-in-the-hobby-i/page/56/#findComment-3669321 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Debonair Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Today in the hobby I absolutely did not worry in any way because the bitz I've ordered for ETL haven't turned up yet. Honest.  Worst comes to worst, I'll just model two of my Terminators waist-deep in mud so they won't need legs!

ninjasuperspy Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Bought a somewhat customized Contemptor off of eBay and I'm getting ever closer to nailing down the FW-style metallic Alpha Legion scheme. So far: Chaos Black primer, Alclad Gloss Black undercoat, Testor's Model Master Metallic Turquoise and I'm stumped. Need to compare some washes (Camoshade? Tamiya Smoke? Green Glaze? Clear Green?) & highlights then hit it with a thinned out Clear Blue coat I guess.

Aqui Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Today in the hobby I received most of the parts needed for my rebooted Iron Hand successor HQ. I've spent most of the day trying to make a custom decal sheet, using a graphic I found online ages ago. Unfortunately as it's a jpeg, it doesn't resize very well, and I've had to resist the urge to throw my laptop across the room. I might have to change the Chapter symbol completely, which I'd prefer not to do. Still on the bright side, I now know how to do it (even if "it" is rather crude), I just need a decent graphic and a steadier hand!

incinerator950 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Not for today, but the other day I found out there's a possibility that my models (Plague Marines, Defiler, Rhino, and Epic scale Imperator Titan) are missing.

Hemal Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 ... I wished World of Tanks had a decent WH40K mod... the remembered that sponsons don't really work, so most Imperial tanks would be useless, especially the Land raider..

A Son of Sanguinius Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Today I base coated Mephisyon for my ETL vow. Today I realized I used the wrong base coat color on Mephiston. Today I put Mephiston into a bath of Simple Greenso I can paint him for my ETL vow.

Son of Carnelian Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I saw that almost half of the highlights I have done for my Stormraven have some sort of red corruption. Pigment bleeding over...?

Lord Xcapobl Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Today in the Hobby I... Â ...sprayed my Chaos Terminator squad black. Separate from their arms. As they are all now magnetized, those bodies and arms. And I am waiting for the extra arms (such as the lightning claws) and the extra Chaos Termie shoulder pads to arrive, so I can truly start to customize them per battle if need be.
