These are great! The flamer lass with the fiery hair is my personal favourite.

Are these to be used in a game? Cos bases like those afford a hell of a lot of LOS issues!

Anyhow, looking forward to seeing them assembled as one complete diorama base.

They look awesome!

I have a question though; you undercoated them white, but did you paint them white again with normal paint? Because Im thinking about doing white sisters as well, but I cant really find the correct technique to do it :(

Awsome models. Loving the bases

95% of teens would go into a panic attack if the jonas brothers were about to jump off the empire state building, copy and paste this if you are the 5% who would pull up a lawn chair & grab some popcorn and yell JUMP!!!!!
Inquiring minds want to know: Do cos-players carry a costume version of the emergency roadside kit we all have in our cars?



92% of teens have moved on to rap. If you are one of the 8% who still listen to real music, copy and paste this into your sig.

Your side is always the "will of the people" the other side is always fundamentalist, extremist, hatemongers, racists, anti- semitic nazies with questionable education and more questionable hygiene. American politics 101.

The bases are better than a lot of people's figures!

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

the models are well painted very clean honestly though I hate the bases. I feel to many gamers are trying to hide poor paint jobs or create headaches with strongly definded bases on all the models in a squad. One or two for a squad of ten is almost optimal.

Listen, my children, as I pass onto you the truth behind Willy Wonka and his factory. For every wonka bar ever created in existance, Mr. Wonka sacraficed a single Oompa Loompa to the god of chocolate, Hearshys. Then, he drank the blood of the fallen orange men because he fed them a constant supply of sugary chocolate so they all became diabetic and had creamy, sweet-tasting blood that willy could put into each and every Wonka bar. That is the REAL story behind willy wonka's Slaughter House!

Basecoat White as normal,
then wash them with GW black wash let dry
Wash again only in the creases with the Black wash. I usually do this until the black is solid.
Of course let dry.
Then start painting with thin layers of white not quite a wash not quite a paint. I usually add privateer press paint medium to the white as well. add thin layers after each one dries.
But the trick is not to paint in the cracks where the darkest black it.
Also you don't have to use black you can try any other color as a wash you want depending on what you want the undertone of your figure to be, you could use blue or even brown. Heck you can use purple if you want. it really depends on what the rest of your paint job is going to be like.
Patience is the Key, white takes forever to paint and it feels like you are constantly touching it up.
