The kids need loads of these for 40k so guess who get's the job to paint them :-)
Seemed like a good set of models to try the new Citadel Contrast paints on with the hope that they'd speed things up somewhat. They definitely did that - I nearly finished 11 of these yesterday in one sitting. These four dried quickly enough to complete the bases on too so they get a picture.
I really like these paints actually - really high saturation at very high dilution. Not sure I'm using them 'right' but great for this sort of work. Just blobbed in a few ivory, orange and teal highlights to tidy things up and give the impression of detail. They also work well if you apply them and then wipe most off with a finger (the bone bits were just this with the Snakebite Leather colour).
