Nice to see the Volcano Cannon :) there is meant to be a painting event soon think Semper is gonna run it.

[Fajita Fan]

I’ve got a pair of primed Reavers sitting and waiting, I also ordered some nice Da Vinci brushes and a wet palette to try.

[Parweke]

been also preparing for the event, new brushes (redgrassgames), started building my knights (8) and warhounds (4)

[Fajita Fan]

Which varnish are you guys using on your little stomps robots of death?

[Rabenga]

Krylon matte between layers...testors dull coat for a final.

[Parweke]

vallejo gloss and satin

[Reyner]

Do you guys paint the varnish on or spray it on from a can/airbrush? I have only used a varnish once or twice around 10 years ago!

On decals I paint my varnish (to bled the decal in). The protective coat I do by can.

Cheers think I'll pick some up when I start painting again - on the fence with Praesagius again so waiting for Titandeath to see what else is in it. Really liking Metalica at the minute aswell.

I use airbrush

[Rabenga]

Just the can man. Only water based stuff exits the business end of my airbrush.

I've actually not thought about this just yet - I don't tend to seal them with varnish normally (i.e. any of my other models). I think that may be something to explore for these though.

A little birdie has told me that the B&C Adeptus Titanicus painting event will be announced very soon. :whistling:

[DuskRaider]

Well hopefully it'll be in a week or so, I need to finish my first Warlord before I take an event on.

[Dosjetka]

Whereas I'd like it to start tomorrow as I've been putting off painting my Titans for long enough! :lol:

 

In any case, I'm sure the event will run for long enough for most people to get a chance to join in. :tu:

[DuskRaider]

You ought to know I'm jumping in Day One, lol

[Dosjetka]

I'm not running tabs on how quickly you join events, DuskRaider... yet. ;) :lol:

[Burni]

I really hope we see Titandeath and the Reaver 2 in tomorrow’s preview for next week. I need that new sprue for a head and the volcano cannon which will go on my TotH pledge. And I’m in the same boat with my 2nd Warlord as I want the separate Warlord sprue 2 for a head and carapace!

[Fajita Fan]

Isn't it Genestealer Cults next week?

[mertbl]

The crane from the galvanic servo hauler kit puts the claw of the crane just above a warlords top.

 

 

I've been hunting for toy cranes that might fit AT scale for terrain or at least the lattice structure to build up. Sadly I don't have space to store anything, that's why I was making collapsible paper buildings.

[Fajita Fan]

But the look and feel are totally out of scale, I have one. It’s a great scenery kit for 40k but I was looking for some kind of Hot Wheels or Micro Machines toy I could repaint.

[mertbl]

Fair enough. To us it looked like one of the monster dump trucks at quarries.

I'm looking at a few of these to put together a spaceport board:

 

6mm Cran from OTP

 

They've got a decent range of scenery for AT, they're based in AUS though so will take a while to get to the UK probably!

Random: I like to think the laserblasters sounds like this.
