Blimey!
That is a hell of an update.

I love all of the new additions but those little space chickens are the cream of the bunch.
Inspired!

They were in the recent 4a miniatures sea goblin Kickstarter. I suspect Andy will have them on his website on due course. They are cute, right?!

Thanks everyone :)

Nice stuff in this thread, I'm glad I found it!

I liked the yellow on your robot.  I have a project I will be starting soon that I want to use some yellow and I hear it is difficult to paint.  How did you get such a nice yellow and how did you do the weathering?

Thanks!

@Bahir - I use a Vallejo paint mixed with white for my yellow. I will check back on the exact colour, but it's a  high pigment mustard colour paint which goes on nicely over a black undercoat. After that it's simply a case of adding a mid grey stippled on with a piece of sponge and washing a brown or sepia into the recesses. It's pretty simple :)

Thanks for the response! It sounds very simple, yet the effect is well done. I'm looking forward to trying this!
