Not many updates but I've been slogging through the camouflage on the Armoured Company these past weeks. The base colors and shading are done, I'm now onto tidying. That should finish up this week and hopefully I can start on the highlights.



The green and tan each get a base, wash, neaten up, and two highlights. The black and metal get a wash and a highlight or two, depending on how they look.







I also painted this guy up over the course of a couple hours this week. He's a battle wizard from my last Kickstarter. He's meant to be a gold wizard/alchemist.

Not painting much these days what with the heat, but I did finish tidying up the base colors recently.



I was getting tired with the lack of perceived progress while painting the entire army though, so switched gears and just started painting the Baneblades. They just need a clear coat and flock at this point. Onto to something else next week.

Top notch  8)

Could you convert another wizard into a tech priest?

Doable but a little out of scale. Vanguard has some nice proxies for them.

Your work area is disgusting!  ;)

Glad you can't see mine!  :D

Nice minis, BTW!  :-*

Batch Painting can be a grind with few rewards along the way for progress made. 

I think the AC is looking really good so far.

Thanks guys.

I finished up the Shadowswords last night. I also went back and painted the headlights on the Baneblades that I missed. Next up are the Leman Russ Exterminators.

Really nice (as usual!) missed the earlier updates, these are going to look great on the table.

Thanks again guys.

I got the Leman Russ Exterminators done last week but forgot to snap a pic. Things are moving along, albeit slowly. This week will either be the Salamander Scouts or a quick tangent into Shieldbash to get things ready for an upcoming invitational.

Truly love your work. This is one of my top five games of all time and I enjoy seeing your armies. Keep them coming.
