But in this this blog i will be redoing my Cadians again.
The Majority of these models i inherited from my older brother several years ago when he stopped playing.
I must of spent about 5 hours max on painting the models i did paint (Its sad i know)

These are the models i hope to paint/repaint and base this time.

50-60 cadians

6 Heavy Weapon teams

5 ratling snipers

10 storm troopers

Leman Russ battle tank

Leman Russ demolisher

Hellhound

Basilisk

3 ogryn

Valkyrie

Commisar Yarrick

Junior Officer with Power Sword

Senior officer with Power Fist

Sentinel (hoping to make another one out of an old deff dread.)

And their sister allies

20 sisters

2 rhinos

9 repentia

5 seraphim

1 cannoness

So its alot to do and my painting skills haven't improved very much so they gone from bad to bad.
Still i hope that i take my time then i can create a good looking army.

These were

2 Ogryn (Very surprised with the amount of detail)

5 Ratlings

Half of Yarrick (I shoved him back in to get the last two layers off )

1 Stormtrooper (also surprised with the detail (not as much as the ogryn though))

1 Cadian Sniper

So i pulled one guardsman out and started to scrub him and then started to scrub..and gave up.
The simple green only got to the third layer of paint
And it doesnt eat through the games workshop primer(Damn my older brother(I never use GW primer because of the price and how simple green doesn't get through))

So all 50 of the guardsmen will need to be stripped with something different.

How well does acetone free nail polish remover work on plastic?

However tomorrow i should be able to get done the officers the last sniper, yarrrick, last ogryn and the nine stormtroopers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1793003.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1793003.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again
So any suggestions for stripping plastic?

I just spent 3 hours scrubbing stormtroopers and an officer and picking remaining paint out of the recesses. (the last two troopers are in different cups)
It took soooo long.
But now its done.

So any ideas on a colour scheme?

What do you think about blazing orange and warlock purple over a white undercoat.
Guns Chain mail with orange stripes and dwarf flesh for the the skin? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1795899.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1795899.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again Anyway, you don't really need to get rid of all the Paint. Just the Majority. If you're having trouble with Recesses, try using a Toothpick or Cocktail Stick to pick it out. I'd say the best way to decide on a Scheme is to do some Test Miniatures. If you don't have any spare, then just use some from your Army - you can always Strip them again afterwards. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1795938.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1795938.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again
And yes i MUST find toothpicks.

And just confirming. Does dettol get through GW primer?

Just a bad quality picture (built in web-cam photo) will do better next time.
These are the metal models Ive stripped (Just one Officer Left to strip, for metal models)

As for the Primer, it definitely gets through Skull White Primer, no problems at all. Chaos Black might need some extra time to shift, but I'm sure it'll work, yeah.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1796018.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1796018.page GMT Repainting the Cadians..Again http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1796189.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1796189.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again
And just testing the super macro mode on yarrick.


I will now start on a test minature]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1797126.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1797126.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again

hahaha I wouldn't worry about obscurity in the ACT, you are on the correct side of the country after all.


Nice bunch of models you've got there. I'm surprised at how well the stripping worked, especially in the detail of Yarrick.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1797976.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1797976.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again
I later got a bit more off him.

Without paint and with paint







As you can see i still have to add more purple (Already Done) fix the chipping (Almost Done) and fix quite a few mistakes also paint the hands.
And i will leave it till finished but it think i will give it a heavy asurmen blue wash to give it some shading and make plain white look better
P.S also some chainmail left to do on the gun.

Well this is the finished result of one test trooper. (seen some mistakes i will go over)

The idea is the stormtroopers train on an inhospitable world that sustained partial exterminatus. So Lava and purple toxic rivers are a common sight.
would you consider this model to be tabletop quality?

They look good, maybe a light wash of black to rough them up abit/tone down all those bright colours/blend the colours into one another, but that is preferance.

Prehaps some zoomed out pictures? I acturely find it hard to tell whether the model is good enough so up close.

Don't let anyone tell you it's a horrible scheme, if they do, wear clothes that look like it!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1801725.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1801725.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again

You really can't go wrong with Drybrushing in different Grey Tones, or Washing in Badab Black. Do some Test Runs.

Hope that helps!

It's certainly a creative color scheme, and I can't knock you for that, it's what this hobby's all about. Keep it up!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1805338.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/308342/1805338.page GMT Re:Repainting the Cadians..Again

I have not had much time and i was stuck for a basing scheme but below is what i have finally decided to base the Deltarans.

Sorry for the poor quality. It was a late night laptop camera shot. it is the base for the first real heavy weapons team i will of built. (Lascannon team that is under construction)
