i like them twins and the mordheim border
ALL HAIL THE COLLAGE
Reposting question from end of thread>are there any little tricks to getting a drybrush on smaller, harder to reach areas? trying to hit parts of the terrain on my underworlds model's base but obviously the model is in the way of a lot of the nooks and cranniesalso hell yeah collage-kun is back
It was nice getting a couple of threads with pics like the old times instead of the slop collage while it lasted. Cheers.
>>98254108I wouldn't paint any reflections that are not present or implied on the base. It would just look wrong. Only exception is mirror polish chrome, but even then doing more than a simple horizon is iffy.

I´m working on some forgeworld resin chaos dreadnoughts, what´s the best way to get them to come apart for stripping and rebasing? I tried putting them in the freezer to weaken the super glue but they didn't feel like they wanted to give and I'm cautious of damaging them. I haven't worked with resin much.
>>98255846how is four angles of Johnny a better thread image than a recap of what anons are actually working on
>>98255863don't reply to low effort shitposters, anon
>>98255863Not necessarily better; just back in the day, the idea hit me when I had the Bangles stuck in my head thanks to my radio alarm clock.
>>98255880>everyone who disagrees with me is a shitposter
>be me, a beginner>buy my very first games workshop (also known as gay wokeslop) product>take the battle sisters because they are girls with boobs and big guns >assemble them, have fun>look at it>looks cool, however>realize how many small, intricate details and different materials there are>some things are genuinely way smaller than my smallest brush>i cant do this breh>realize i should have picked lame ass space marines, way easier to paint
>>98255835A small filbert brush, its a flat brush with rounded corners. You can snip the corners from a spare flat brush to make one.
>>98256011At least try painting them before you start whining about how hard it isAlso clean that shit up before you prime it, it's covered in gunk and mold lines
>>98256011you will be amazed how intrigate stuff you will be able to paint with a brush that resembles more like a broom in no time when you get the hang of it
>>98256011>be meGo be you in /40kg/
>>98256011You can't improve if you're afraid to fail
>>98256011Detailed models are easier to paint than ones with large flat surfaces.
Built these chaos marauders a while ago but I got the modelling bug recently and decided to chop off hands and replace weapons. Bodies are from Lost Kingdom Miniatures and the weapons are from Asgard Rising and Artisan Guild.
>>98256310As a fellow print enthusiast, I'm looking with suspicion at those skinny weapon handles. I've had a few break on me at this point :(. Awesome models and bases, thoughever
>>98256310And one pic from the back. I originally built all 30 with the same axe head and it looked pretty boring. Found four axe heads, a sword, and some spears to give the unit some variety.>>98256331Thanks, mate. I use Elegoo ABS resin. Thankfully no breaks so far.
Wanted to try out doing a really harsh bisected shadow, almost like you hit him with flash photography in a dark cave and while I don’t think it was all that successful and will probably still tinker around with it, was a pretty fun paint
Not a wip , but this reminded me of Blood Angel anon who posts here and in /grog/. It's an art screen-print my m8 made, apparently it's a misprint so I got it free :)
>>98256408I think the shadow should also be applied to the weapon and the base to sell the effect. Needs more contrast overall. Looking good though anon
>>98256430Shrunk down, it would look pretty good on somebody's bosspole. To date, I have never used this one for anything, despite having drawn it nearly 25 years ago.
>>98256518>To date, I have never used this one for anything, despite having drawn it nearly 25 years ago.Now is a good time to remedy that then!
>>98256518>Chad Sanguinius and virgin Ka'Bandha
>>98256310got them stls?
>>98256011you can always do just the details you see,
only the base left to do
>>98256762Nice. I really need to get on with mine. Specifically the pipes and wires.
>think my mini looks good so far>take a picture to look closer>blends disappear into the etherAre my eyes low resolution or something?
day 1 of actually building stuff again, plan is to finish leviathan before the summer is over, almost accidentally glued his arm to the flamer nozzle instead of the top part, as thats where pre primaris would go
>>98256818Photos always make it look shittier + most phone cameras nowadays have baked in post processing you can’t turn off that makes any picture not look representative of how it looks irl
>>98256818>Are my eyes low resolution or something?Everyone's are when compared to the average phone camera
Slogging through assembling these. GW models are so damn fiddly these days. Rest of the second box to slog through now, I'm going to try to give them some corpse-grinder cult weapons.>>98256762Looks awesome, well done!
>>98256973Oh and a bunch of milliput to give the minotaurs necks and rebuild arms I cut to repose, but I'll do all that at once after I build them all.
How long does it usually take you to paint a single mini? I feel like I’m super slow
>>98256992Anywhere between four hours and a year and a half
>>98256992A few hours to many hours.. Weirdly when I try to paint fast or when I try to paint slow, I take about the same amount of time. I wish I could drastically reduce my standards or something so I could paint faster.
>want an Eldar model to have ridiculously long daughters of khaine style hair>still want the back banner thinghow do I do this without it looking dumb
>>98257073Allow me to introduce you to the concept of...sculpting>>98256992Depends. 3 hours is like a speed paint for me. 10-12 is pretty standard for like a 'normal' paint job, and when I try it's maybe like 30 or 40.
>>98256992Actual painting time? 2- 3 hours, depending on the size of the mini.In reality from when I start and actually finish?... a week or two. Sometimes a couple months. I'm not as motivated as other Anons here, and I have a lot of hobbies...
>>98257082>sculptingNo shit, the question is making it look good. I don't think having a banner just sticking out through the hair would work very well.
Hey guys. I’ve let myself get duped into buying WGA’s plastic nano files.Because I couldn’t find a better deal on Amazon of getting the cuticle and the other flat file. Without going over the price wargames atlantic was charging.So I bit the bullet.Plus the results usually kept saying they were bohemian glass or Czech crystal glass and I didn’t know if that meant nano glass or something better.Did I screw up big time or are those files genuinely good for plastic model cleanup?>>98256074Nta but I wish I had this advice sooner.A lot sooner. I’ve been stuck in preparation spirals constantly.
>>98256849Both sides of the leviathan box? That'll keep you plenty busy, what chapter and hive fleet are you going for.
Does anyone have the latest Stahly PDF? I lost it since I had to reset my phone.
Little update on this guy
>>98257151I don't like files for cleaning up mold lines or whatever, removing something off of something they work okay for but the only time I found files were good were when models were made with metal (tin). Files leave tiny scratches in plastic that are hard to remove with a knife and often just make the model look worse. You think it looks good to the eye but then don't notice it until you prime. What are you using them for exactly?
>Really like the Bestarium Games miniature designs>They're all for either DnD or Trench CrusadeYou're telling me these models aren't part of their own table top?
