Experimented with making industrial silicon/ cornflour moulds, in this case of a kind of fortress wall section made from Lego, I wanted to start with a basic shape. One mould has a flaw, but the process was fun and it's easy enough to try again.

The plaster is setting now, I'm curious to see how it turns out. I figure at the very least I'll have some scatter ruins out of it.

Eta - hugely impressed with how this turned out, and the flaw from the mold actually looks like shrapnel damage on the wall, which is great. Will be using this technique again, I'm considering plaster casting bits of a cheap action figure to suggest a colossal shattered statue.

Started painting the Rebirth variant of Ra's al Ghul for my League of Assassins. He's a great sculpt with a lot of detail, yet still paints up pretty quickly

I have been workin' on my zoggin' orks for Kill Team. I wanted to field field them last weekend, but didn't have even 50 points up to tabletop standard. I think I have just enough to do that now even if 5 of them are Shoota Boyz. They be Bad Moons so it kinda makes sense though.

Spoiler:




I find that I really like painting Orks. Almost enough to field a small 40k army.

Just finished another session with the Ambull. Discovered nearly 20 year old inks(paints) today, and have put them to use on the model...absolutely incredible effect! The fine detail brush I purchased recently has been essential to keeping things neat. Bit stuck on what colours to use on the claws, hooves and mandibles but its something I can leave for now..

Saturmorn, your Orks and Gretchin are really good!

Thank you very much.

Painting them up as been quite fun. Kinda slow since I am using five or so greens for different skin tones and mix and matching about the same amount of colors vests and pants. Since it is a Kill Team amount it hasn't been too bad. I don't know if I would go to the same amount of trouble for a proper 40k army. Still, I almost want to pick up a Start Collecting set for the down the line and maybe make a small 500-1000 point army. I just got too many projects I want to do especially with the Chaos Space Marine rollout this year.

Gonna go LARP in two and a half hrs, and possibly paint after dinner.
