Upcoming Apoc game so I am busy re basing 28mm Naps and painting up some RCW/WWI/WWII cav.


Lol, we need to set up a bit Nap game, say early in the new year, nice motive to get a shift on with the froggies.

Also never use the word "intelligence" in connection to any of my posts...

20x termagants now based up and ready to roll. few metal models disassembled, cleaned up and ready for the rubber cloning vats.

Still not got round to working out how close I can get to 3k and in what way, meah, accuracy is for others.

They look very good.
Looking forward to more 40K other than the Apoc.

Picked a scheme specifically to be quick to paint, the base colour is Desert Tan primer, whole model gets two thin coats, thats the base for the skin, the green and brown go on next, the whole lot gets a heavy sepia wash, flesh is dry brushed bone and is finished, doesn't matter if it catches the green.

green gets highlighted with a bit go green grey added to the base, the a fine edge highlight, doesn't take long as its generally big bits, the smaller bits get dry brushed. brown gets a dry bush of a leather colour then its just black of the eyes.

Everything else is a flash wash (brain type bits) in stead of the sepia and tamika clear colours.

the sodding bases take longer than the models

Base, wash, dry brush, done, they are much faster than marines to paint.

Though there never seems to be an end to them, another 40 or so small ones to do..

oh amazing, the classic ASC scheme, never did get that right all those years ago, you've done it proud, that yellow and red are spot on
