Eldar Warlock WiP.

Okay, it’s almost Friday and I’ve found some time to take a picture of Warlock that I have been painting on for the past week. Just something that’s been lying around for a while and deserved a little attention.

It's about half done and I wasn’t trying to do anything fancy. My palette is very limited until I can get some new paints. Most of them did not survive the long and extended break. This may be blessing as GW went and redid the whole line again from what I understand.

Anyone have some feedback on what these new paints are like? Are the pots different from the last set or did the stick with old ones? The new ones seemed to aimed at people who hate mixing paint and most of line is just repeated shades and tones of the primary set. Are the washes still the same? I’d be a sad Larry if they were different. 

 Any insight would be helpful; I’ve never strayed outside of Apple Barrel and Games workshops paints and wonder if this would be a good time to make a switch.  Any recommendations for an outside company would be great otherwise I’ve got some research ahead of me.

"Epic" Resurrection pt.6

Well, this is the best one out of the lot. This Titian is so freaking red, it makes my camera cry. In the next day or so I should be able to put some pictures of the imperial side of things. This half of the project was allot less work, and for the most part is completely done. I guess it's time to make of some blast markers, terrain, and sometime soon, maybe even play a game.

One a side note: I did not get the chance to snap up any pictures of my Warhammer game against the hungry, hungry Ogres. The Horde chewed up the Lizards so fast, that I forgot to take some. Ah well.... you have that sometimes.

"Epic" Resurrection pt.5

Well, I manage to snap a few army pics that I'd like to share real quick. The Ork half is all done, and I've been work on the imperial side on and off.

After that I'm going to have to figure out something for terrain. The warp must of eaten most of the buildings over the years. Sadly, only two remain. However, I must be honest and say that I'm kinda looking forward to this part of the project. It's just a matter of getting started.

 

The Lizard men are battling the Ogre Horde again tomorrow, so I'll try to snap a few pictures.

"Epic" Resurrection Pt. 3

We now bring you the "dead stompy" segment of the show.  These two fatt boyz round out the war machine portion of the massive Ork Horde. Very sadly, bringing this half of the project to an end. I tallied up the army the other day, and the entire horde weighs in at a healthy 3,000 points. I still have a detachments or two to show off in the near future. It's just the matter of getting the pictures to turn out half decent.

Now it's time to paint this guy!

"Epic" Resurrection Pt.2

Hi....Every body!

The restoration continues... as Yarggh's Rokkit boyz speed on the table with some brand new paint. They're all ready to tear up the board and put some dakka to good use. After working on those tiny infantry units, switching over to a bunch of tanks was a welcomed change. I gave them all a quick dry brush and a generous helping of wash. I did try to put some tiny flames on the sides of a few tanks, but that got old really quick.

Out of the Two armour detacthments in the Waaggh, this one is the largest.
This mobile mob would make any Speed Freak green with envy.

Next in line...Baby Gargant.

"Epic" Resurrection

Hi.... everybody!

I got myself into a “little” project over the past week or two. So, I’d thought it be cool to post up some pictures of what I have been toiling over. Please understand, that I’m not painting this all up from scratch. This is just a kind of repair/refit and touch-up project. Most of this stuff was painted well over ten years ago, when the 3rd edition of the game was introduced.

Here for inaugural post is Zap-Nut’s War-band. This detachments is only foot slogging element in the whole Wagggh. For what it lack’s in mobility, it makes up for in ranged firepower. It’s a real Hodge-podge of different units, but it looks like a Ork horde.

The tiny boar boys are just too cool!

The only real tip I can give out is when painting tiny mini-minis is to keep the paint  thin.
Let me repeat myself, cause it will help you remember.
Very, very, thin.

Next time... Yarrgh’s Rokkit boyz!
