Finished my Shadowseer and Death Jester today, then I knuckled down and finished stuffing white tack into the holes of my Mantic wall parts or the ones I wanted to do so far, then primed most of them with Leadbelcher on both sides, ready for putting a wash on tomorrow!

I put wash on my Mantic wall parts, then over-brushed and dry-brushed them, so that was a big step toward getting them done. Just have 12 bits to prime and wash, and over-brush/dry brush to go.

I also began finally painting my Autarch Raloth Arlyandor mini for my mini diorama. I finished base painting him, and he isn't looking too bad already!

Good luck with that, dude! I hope you manage that!

Back OT, more work on my Raloth Arlyandor mini; he's almost finished. I even painted a new head for him, using one of the Eldar heads from W Artel I bought months back, and it looks pretty good, I think. The mini of the Autarch with swooping hawk wings, power sword, and fusion pistol is such a great model that's a joy to paint. Soon gotta start painting the Emperor's Children Chaos Marine that was decapitated for the display base.

Well after finishing my command tercio and command unit for my SA count as...
time to build 2 rifle sections and artillery crew.

After that i should probably build my cardboardbox of shame full on legion units.


jut another 70 ish models for the SA and 2 preds, a sicarian, 2 proteus, 2 predators and a scorpious...

boy at this rate this feels less like a hobby and more like work

I tried to get the White Tack out of the connection holes of my Mantic wall parts and found it...much harder than I had hoped. So my father suggested I get the Dremel he gave me, get a part the same size and use that to push it out, which I did; it took a while but not anywhere near as long as it would've if I tried to do it manually. Thank goodness.
I also pushed more white tack into a few more things, then primed more wall parts with Lead Belcher ready for washing.

Then, I worked more on my Raloth Arlyandor mini, on his power sword and back banner, and began painting the decapitated Emperor's Children mini for the diorama base. Bright pink will be an interesting colour to paint, I think.

I put wash on my Mantic wall sections and did quite a bit more work on the decapitated Emperor's Children Marine for my Raloth Arlyandor display base. It's looking not bad at all, actually. Maybe too good, so might distract from Raloth a bit, lol

Almost finished a mini diorama I began building months ago of my OC Eldar Autarch Raloth Arlyandor of my homebrew Craftworld (or Craft Fleet?) Dalorsia. The basing is based around the war the Eldar of Dalorsia fought to defend their home from an Emperor's Children invasion (that's why it's an Emperor's Children Chaos Marine that's been decapitated). Essentially, it's Raloth leaping off his jetbike to fight in a melee killing a veteran Chaos Marine on the way. I researched Emperor's Children for the mini and decided I'd paint the edge highlighting gold instead of silver to make it look more senior than a normal EC Marine in the photos. I just have to do a few small things, including Raloth's back banner, which I might freehand to be the Craftworld's symbol, so I might sketch up a few concepts; I made the Craftworld like seventeen years ago and still don't have a symbol for them and only made a colour scheme for them a year or so ago and Raloth's gems. The head is from the W Artel "Eldar" head kit.

Due to it pouring down with rain today, so unable to work outside, so did quite a lot today. As I posted before, I practically finished my Raloth Arlyandor and his diorama base. I finished dry brushing my Mantic walls and finished them. Then sketched concepts for Craftworld Dalorsia for Raloth's flag, and I found one and began freehanding that. Pretty happy with how it's turned out!

Finally got my Knight patrol finished, at least to the point where small hidden details can be done at a leisurely pace.

Significant progress with a Harlequin Voidweaver, which still needs more work but the majority is at least done.

Ulthwe models for both 3rd edition and Kill Team 2018 are proceeding at a decent pace. With a golf-course base, I consider a model done.

Thanks! I'm happy with how they turned out, and they were fun to paint.

Uhh, I did a bit today. More work on my Mantic terrain stuff and on Raloth. Freehanding the symbol on his flag. Here are a few photos of my progress. Gotta fix it up a bit more, I think!

Not too much today. Mostly worked on my Mantic terrain accessories and a bit of work on my Attelus Kaltos mini's powersword as I might place him into a local painting competition. Doubt he'll win, but nothing ventured as they say.

Well after being out of the hobby for a long time and sorting my painting tray and brushes out, iv got a new painting handle arriving today with the wire hand rest to help me keep more steady while painting.
And after finding loads of boxes and models that I accrued over the years, I'v got enough to keep me going for literally years of building and painting.
I'm looking forward to getting stuck in again and hope to have something I can show you all eventually.

Quite a lot today, a lot of work on my Mantic building parts, more wash application and a lot more overbrushing and drilling out white tack from the holes and finally did a bit of work on my plastic Dark Reapers that I bought and began months ago. I didn't enjoy painting them, and I dunno, didn't like them much. But now beginning to warm to them, also heard they're not very good on the Table Top, but I'll more likely use them in One Page Rules than 40k.

I also did quite a bit more painting on Raloth Arlyandor, fixing up highlights etc. and trying to fix the freehanded Dalorsia symbol on his back banner.

Almost finished my Dark Reapers, began basing them and applied Astrogranite Debris on the bases of numerous other minis as well. I did a bit more work on Raloth, trying to fix the lighting on the green of his armour. Then on a whim, I began working on my Faye Valentine mini, fixing up her pale skin, and I'm pretty happy with her now!

Trying to find a good paint match for the old Boltgun paint. Either stock or a mix.

Boltgun seems to have been discontinued at some point.
And my last pot of it is all but petrified.
This is a problem as I'm trying to add a few new things to my ages old generic CSM force and I used BG as their base color.

Leadbelcher is to flat/dull.

"Iron Warrior" is a bit too dark - looks fine on my new 30k IW project.
But it stands out a bit next to my general CSM force of yesteryear.

Wasn't feeling well today, but I did some work on my minis. Based my Dark Reapers so I'm going to say they're finished now, even though I could do more work on them. I did a lot on Faye Valentine, slowly layering up the shaded bits of her pale skin and re-did her...bikini? With a new yellow paint from Scale 75, which is almost an electric yellow, I think it is closer to the yellow from the show. Almost finished her!
