I wish I were a Wizard
I tried a few different things (thanks for the suggestions) but still couldn't get the bases quite how I wanted to, I don't want to redo them so I'll settle and try to ace the next batch 👌

Behold, some Infractors! Onto the next!

I could use a hand, any ideas as to what I can do to make these bases pop? I want more of the lilac/pink lava under the crackle to come through and glow

Should I peel some of the flakes? Paint them purple? Does it look fine and I'm overthinking it?

I think I can make a more convincing plasma effect so I'll return to that at a later point.

That's it for the lil pink psychos for now, swimming in so many stims they can't feel the ground beneath them (because I've yet to make it).

Onto the bases!

Humbly invading your feeds to share that pink gang are coming along fine.

The community were not joshing about the Chaos trim.

I haven't been very post-y lately, but I thought I'd try and shake that up by sharing that I'm starting an EC army.

I painted up a test model (and wasn't fully sold on the pink tone, so swapped for a brighter ink) and have begun painting up the rest.

For the first time in a little over a year of hobbying, I've got a set of minis that I'm comfortable saying "Finished. 👏" Painted. Based. Varnished.

Also, Catapult my beloved ♥️

Anyone on the fence should watch a couple of Vincey V's videos on airbrushes, thinner and primer and then pull the trigger. It's stress free and is even gonna save me money in the long run.

The airbrush is an amazing little bit of kit. I took my time with these chaps (I wanted to paint up Decimus to commemorate my time spent as a Reiver in SM2) and had a quick and easy gradient from bare plastic in like 20 minutes.

We do be painting another bugman. Part of me was thinking the big green crystals on every gun were a bit OTT. But now that I've done the flamer I'm lamenting its lack of glowy green bits!

Finished us finished. The time clock means nothing.
It took me only 30 years to finish painting this band of orcs.

Sleepless nights provide an opportunity, at least when the energy is there. Pretty pleased with how this lance has shaped up (also, Catapult my beloved).

Lil update, but I found some time to paint up the bulk of the Shadestrain, still enjoying painting up the wings somehow.

I've also been painting up one of the ruins from my Hivestorm kit. I'd really like for the snow, wind and rain to take a break soon so I can fly out and prime a couple vespid models though!

Little bit of a quick n easy Recon Drone kitbash. Solving problems twofold.

Firstly, that I'm not that keen on the look of the original Recon Drone.

Secondly, that the first one I built I made a real mess of because it was literally my first model kit.

A friend gave myself and some others a bit of an unorthodox introduction to #necromunda today but it was good fun 👌

I'm on a roll so I'll keep going, but I've pinned them all to their bases now.

Bases from FabricatorsLair's Lost Ships set, printed from my A1 Mini

Little bit of chaotic priming today... I let a friend talk me into trying Necromunda, and the Helots spoke to me

Hi Bluesky

Miniature identification request, please reskeet!

Anyone know what the heck these are, I was thinking some kind of dnd cloaker or similar.

Likely 1980s/early 90s from the lot I found them in.

Cut it a little close to the sunset (I literally finished the last piece in the dark) but...

Another day, another batch of primed bits and bobs.

Getting a serious start on tackling everything in the Hivestorm box finally.
