Chat: Daylight Lamps for Painting
Look at how dark and dingy my paint area is. The other day on my Facebook account, I asked everyone what lighting they use to paint to. The resounding answer was daylight bulbs. I was getting examples ranging from £20 to £105 in the comments....
WIP: Stormcast Eternal Judicators Primal Kings Stormhost
I’m cranking along on the Primal Kings Stormhost project. I’m adding Judicators to my small fledging force. Batch painting is well underway and I’m working on these in pieces. I find it easier to have the arms, torsos and legs separate. These judicators are so...
Review: £12.89 KMOON Dual Action Airbrush

Showcase: Dark Angel Assault Marines

WIP: Dark Angels Assault Marines #3
Making great progress this week. I really want these finished so I’m spending an hour or two an evening and just working through my own Dark Angel tutorial making sure I complete a couple of steps at a time. Not sure wether or not to paint...
WIP: Dark Angels Assault Marines #2
Haven’t painted much for the past two weeks. Other hobbies have really grabbed my attention at the moment. However I’m really going to try hard to finish this Assault Marine squad this week. More soon.
