ggergnayr Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Alright, that’s two War Dogs primed, one sub assembled and one assembled, both primed and base coats started. hoping to shade some good today and layer the second. Aside from some fiddly small bits, these were much easier to build than I expected. A large amount of pieces was offset by the sheer size of them.

Brother Anderson Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I'm glad you got on well with building them! I made the mistake of trying to build that battleforce of seven of them all at once: that way madness lies . Do they have a house they belong to? ggergnayr 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387351-ggergnayr-bunker-bingo-%E2%80%9826/#findComment-6149642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggergnayr Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 I have been eyeballing that battle force box, they have one at a local game store tucked back on a shelf and I can’t justify the expense, YET. It would cut down on the magnetizing to be done hahaha. I am thinking of a Dreadblade squad instead of a house. Lots of gold, some purples and muted colors with a metallic black trim. Keeping the horns a bone white too, I think. Going with ‘Sons of Mammon’ for the name. Mentally thinking of them as a style of biker gang mercenary team pledged to Chaos Undivided.

Brother Anderson Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 It's cracking value but I definitely recommend having something else to do in the middle of them haha. Sons of Mammon is a perfect name for a band of gold War Dogs, that's fantastic ggergnayr 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387351-ggergnayr-bunker-bingo-%E2%80%9826/#findComment-6149671 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini_painting_mike Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) I never have the patience for sub assemblies - bravo to you for doing it! It will lead to a better result in the end I'm sure!

ggergnayr Posted January 3 Author Share Posted January 3 @Brother Anderson I guess Nurglings are the way to go for Chaos Knights to have some tough small help, but I think I want to paint up some traitor guard as little footmen. Little purple or gold armored schmucks dodging around hahaha. That would be above mid pack palate cleanse. @mini_painting_mike Me too usually. I tried it with my stingwings and ended up just not painting them for like six months as they sat subassembled. I’m gonna try and knock out the assembled one today and we’ll see how much harder it is to do parts of it. Will report back.

Lathe Biosas Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I totally understand the dislike of bad lighting. All my pictures come out terrible. But I do have a solution. When I complete my 2,000 point army (based, decaled, etc.), I am going to get somebody with a real camera to take some quality photos of my army on display. mini_painting_mike and ggergnayr 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387351-ggergnayr-bunker-bingo-%E2%80%9826/#findComment-6151169 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whist I am no expert in lighting or photography, over the years I have learned a thing of two... I use a strip of high powered LEDs (daylight) stuck to the shelf above my painting desk, and a little clip on lamp with yellow light. That gives me sufficient lighting to paint. As for photographing minis, since I switched to an Android phone I still use my old iPhone for photographing my models because *whatever* I do, I cannot get a decent photo of my minis on an Android phone...

I have some of GW's hard cardboard game boards I use as a backdrop, these are great as they collapse down to A4 size but also expand to 8x that. These help as a less jumbled backdrop makes it easier to focus on the right thing. Another tip is to add a small torn corner of a white piece of paper the the edge of your pic. This can be cropped out later, but will provide a solid reference for colour balance / correction. ggergnayr 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/387351-ggergnayr-bunker-bingo-%E2%80%9826/#findComment-6151425 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggergnayr Posted January 16 Author Share Posted January 16 I’ve got the KT24 game board, I’ll pull that out and see how it looks with a soft ring lighting. Closer! Transfers and basing to go.
