I had a game this week with my Jokers. I need to practice a little bit but this list seems pretty fun to play with. ^^


I also painted another mutant for Red Button's Nation. Basically it's a big squig model. I searched for tropical frogs on internet, and mixed two skins that I liked.

Hahaha - love it.

Thanks Januine.

Currently I'm painting an ambulance, for the doctor I posted on the previous page.

Done !

Fantastic work, looks amazing.

I have to confess though, your cars are wonderful, but the tyres are throwing me off. Beautiful rotten truck with nice shiny new rubbers!

Squig looks amazing, love him.

I just love the patterning on the squig. Truck is amazing but Cam's right. Tires are much too new looking.

You're both right.
I forgot to add pigments on the wheels before the photo. It's corrected now !

Glad you like them. Two or three more infantry models to paint and I should have a complete Red Button's Nation convoy.

Merry Christmas Everybody !

That is completely demented... I LOVE IT!

Just brilliant.

Merry Christmas sir.

Haha, thanks mates.
And HAPPY NEW YEAR. I wish all the best to all of you guys (and girls) who follow my thread, read my poor english, and comment sometimes.


To start this year, I painted a new survivor for Red Button's Nation.
I don't know where this model is from, but I really love it.

Happy new year! Love the doctor`s van. Your rust and grime technique is impressive.

Thanks Illumini !
Painting rust is so much fun because it has a great part of randomness in it. I love doing this. I hope I can find a truck or a bus someday, to have larger areas to paint.


Another project I had was to make a new gaming table for skirmish games. It's now done, with a swamp terrain. It was inspired by some of the latest releases for Eden, but this table can also be used for other games like Alkemy or Fury.

That swamp terrain looks awesome.

Looks like it literally blew your mind !


Thanks !

How did you do the water effect?

Love that first shot, with the zombies out of focus in the background - quite spooky! And a way impressive table all around, nice work

- Salvage

Table looks amazing bud, nice photography too, very atmospheric. Is that resin water, or one of the water effect products?

Love the geezer with the gun, he looks hard as nails, brilliant work as always on the clothes.

@ Gits : there's a gradient of greens painted on. And then I applied a generous coat of gloss varnish on top of it.

@ Boss Salvage : yeah I love this picture too. It's kinda atmospheric.

@ Cam' : it's "just" gloss varnish. Of course, I don't have a real deepness effect, compared to resin water used for dioramas. But it looks good enough for a gaming table, and it is really easier to do.



Back with a new recruit for Red Button's Nation : Tara.
We make demos of RBN at our club's convention saturday, so I figured out that it would be a good idea to have my convoy painted.


Samedi, on fait des démos de Red Button's Nation à la Convention des Nerviens. Alors je me suis dit que finir ma bande pour l'occasion ça serait une bonne idée.
Voici donc une nouvelle recrue, qui me permet d'avoir un convoi jouable, Tara :







A group shot of my convoy (without cars, I didn't have enough space ) :

They look stunning! Fabulous work.

Tara is a brilliant sculpt and beautifully painted. The only thing putting me off ever so slightly is her HUGE HANDS! I love the pose and the rest of the model is really nice.

Very nicely done Minus. Love how you treated Tara's robes - really came out so rich and lush looking. She really does have huge hands though eh>?!!!!! The whole group is looking great. really nice work

Great, now I can't unsee the huge hands. Great paintjob though. Love the group shot.

Hi guys !
Yes, Tara has huge hands, definitely. They're so big that I can't imagine that it wasn't made deliberately. To me, she's clearly a mutant, and I guess we wouldn't like her to put her mask off.

And it's perfect since there are lots of mutants in RBN's world. ^^

I painted three new models today, my 3 Puppets for Eden. Here on my blog : http://code660066.blogspot.fr/2016/01/eden-la-peinture-des-puppets.html

And a photo :

Minus - youve outdone yourself fella!! they are gorgeous. love the colour and the staining/weathering is awesome. great work

Agreed the weathering is amazing, love the colour choice, they look stunning.

They look great Minus love the weathering and that blue is very nice which make is it?

Thanks mates !
I kept the color scheme from the rest of the band, but since there is only armour on these models, I didn't know how it would look in the end. But the turquoise on the whole models works pretty well, and the rust is a nice addition to this color. I'm really satisfied with what I got in the end. ^^

Hi GiraffeX !
I'm not sure what brand you're asking for. So to be sure to answer, I'll give you the brand of everything.
The models are Resistance miniatures from Eden (Happy Games Factory).
The blue is GW Hawk Turquoise or Army painter Hydra Turquoise, wich are identical. I use them undistinctly. Then a blue wash (army painter) to shade. And highlights with turquoise plus GW Space Wolves grey.
Rust is made using Ammo of mig Light Rust wash and Streaking rust.
Add Forgeworld pigments on the base, and you know everything.



So let's see what we've got now.
I painted two sets of crates objectives for a new mission for Eden. What's noticeable with these is that I created the mission that goes with the crates. It was really fun to do, and it's cool when you get in your mailbox something that you had imagined !




Crates look good, with a little futuristic design. I painted them all rusty to give them a post apoc feel. And as you mignt know for now, I love painting rust so I really enjoyed painting that crates.

Two sets of crates :




And with models, for scale :

LOVE those crates. Can never have enough crates.

Damn the weathering on the creates and robots is sick! Great work.
