The Loose Association of Wargamers

They are nice indeed.

I painted pants today. Precisely 30 min to get these effects with the CP, which I'm determined to use for this project. This video I well worth watching if you want to go beyond what I consider to be subpar 'tabletop' results with oil staining and weird pooling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_cont ... la40wPw7_U

Mind, it's a good 1:40:00, so on the longer side of these sorts of things.



About another hour spent and they're now here (including one of the sabot bases):

what figurseseses are those? They are nice

They are and that’s a good effect you’ve achieved. I see spending a couple of hours on a video in my near future.

I'll be checking that out later. I need to crack on with the ECW army but the mojo has wilted.

Check your Spam folder. I'm sure there will be something in there to help...

I am utterly mojo-less. Trying to paint shield rims and can't be bothered. Rim jobs are usually such a treat as well.

Have you tried giving them a quick wash? I find rim jobs are better after a wash

You’ve obviously over rimmed and now feel bummed.

Are your rim batch numbers to big? I only get mojo-suck when there is to much on the bench.

Thanks, all. Hope to have a base finished to show over the weekend. Veebs - These are those fiddly Victrix plastics, and I still need to add the swords to their rears. In retrospect, I should have painted the figures, then added the packs- as once you add kit, it makes it very hard to get to all the belts and the collar and shoulders, etc. But I shall persevere.

I'll be going for Perry plastics for the British/Portuguese, as prepping and assembling another 20 of these took me a good 8 hours of work, which kind of defeats the speed painting!
