Showcase: SPDM5, Painting Contest (BSBs)
I have a been a very busy bee hosting my first two day tournament this past weekend. Sparkle Party Death Match 5 was a huge success with fun had by all. One of the things that I like to do at my events is have…
WIP: Dwarfs Longbeards #7
On occasion I will host group paint nights. We all setup around the table and sling or spray paint until the wee hours of the morning. It is an opportunity for my buddies to use the airbrush or get help with things like color choices…
WIP: Dwarfs Longbeards #6
Over the last couple sessions I went back through the unit with Abaddon Black to clean up any dry brushing that got onto the beards or grips of the weapons. Then, just as I did for the for the Hammerers, I split the unit up…
WIP: Dwarfs Longbeards #5
Took me another two days of intermittent hobby time to do a very controlled dry brush of Ironbreaker on the lads. After the wash and this step the details are really starting to show. I think I will wait to do the final Runefang Steel…
WIP: Dwarfs Longbeards #4

Showcase: Deathknell Watch
Finally finished up the Deathknell Watch. It use to be that every time I saw this model I was turned off by the skulls. Now after painting it, and “becoming one with the skulls” I actually really like it. I used the Golden High Flow…
WIP: Dwarfs Longbeards #2
Well after finishing up the shield scraping I was ready to prime these guys up and get some paint on them. Because the faces are so recessed I knew I would need to start with skin first. Always better to start on the deep areas…
WIP: Deathknell Watch
I won a Deathknell Watch kit in a charity raffle at a recent tournament and started that up. I wanted to try the brown stone look that the studio used on the packaging. Pretty pleased with it so far. Fingers crossed I don’t mess it…
WIP: Dwarf Longbeards #1
It is funny to be put in the situation where you feel a model has too much detail. So much in fact that you don’t have room for your own creative additions like freehand details. I really felt this with the Hammerers so now as…
