Hubbabubba's Fantasy Stuff
« on: 17 September 2014, 11:59:20 AM »
Bronze Age Skeletons with  Gripping Beast wire spears, (cause the Bronze Age ones that come with the figs are naff.)

I had a play around with oil washes over airbrushed base coats, looking for a quick way to get them painted.

Not too chuffed with the results but I did discover that you can't oil wash over acrylic gloss varnish, makes it all go tacky and it stays that way. >:D

Future floor wax seems to be the best thing to protect the paint from the turps/white spirit.

Hopefully some more to follow in the not too distant future

The Living Impaired Lads look TERRIFIC...VERY Harryhausen-esque. VERY WELL DONE!

That colour looks excellent, especially that beautiful shield.

Very nice, the shield patina is fantastic.
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Those are great! 10 out of 10.
