So I've heard that this formation hits hard. Trying out something interesting for an upcoming tourney, I put together a list and then the starter models.
 |
| Started out with Eviscerators glued on the Marines before Marshall shared how shitty they are |
So I plucked them off and magnetized them for future proofing!
 |
| I love working in bulk |
An advantage of gluing and basing the minis is that the Primer forms a sealant which helps to seal in the basing materials (in my case sand and stones) from falling off.
 |
| I then hit them all together with a Flat Black Primer. Brand is Nippon |
I keep having people tell me how important it is to use good primers. I don't think it's that critical IMHO. As long as the primer you use is not sprayed too close to your model, you should be alright. Remember to keep at least 1 feet or 30cm between your model and nozzle.
 |
| Unfortunately these models are extremely detailed so I work in 3's |
I found that 3 is a good number if you are working on detailed models. Keeps me going as I get a sense of achievement from seeing them complete in a shorter time.
 |
| And then I broke out the Devastators which needed work too. Blocked in all the major parts in black,silver etc |
There was a large bunch of Marines that were still not completed so I took out the airbrush and started batch painting in the evening. The only bad thing about doing this at night is that I realised my models were a little darker compared to my other batch that was painted in the morning.
 |
| Airbrushing helps to save so much time but do try to do it in bright day light or bright lights |
 |
| I had magnetized all my arms for the Eviscerators and I am glad I did. I eventually swapped them out for other options |
 |
| Let's hope I pick up the right can when I top up that cup |
More incoming!
