Back at it! Picked up some minis on my trip, including this bonus gift from my friend Phil.

Not sure if it's a D&D monster or what, but I instantly saw a sculpt crying out for contrast paints when he offered it to me.

Mini of the day: Canonness, WIP. When I'm done the Emperor's Children, I swear I'll get back to the Sisters. She's a bit dusty.

We use these heavy transport trailers at work called SPMTs.. I ended up with a busted-up miniature of one. So I'm going to make a Chaos SPMT. Counts as a Rhino, innit?

Well, I said don't shade, then I realized I clearly hit this guy with some thinned down contrast paint. Actually I think it was Carroburg Crimson shade paint. Been a while!

Method: Base Coat, do not highlight or shade. Then dip it in this, shake off the excess, and let it dry for a day. Apply Matte varnish as desired as it will be SUPER glossy at first.

That being said, I feel like if you aren't keeping it fairly glossy, you're losing the best part of the product.

Mini of the day: Dipped Termagant. I don't speedpaint very often, so it's quite annoying that when experimenting with a speed painting technique, I made a better Tyranid than the ones I spend much longer on. 😂

They give you a lot of leeway on the posing in this kit, and you can be even more creative if you want to get into some minor editing. I chopped a few connection points for sure to get new limb angles. This is the second set I've built, although first I've primed. Did way better posing these.

First 10 Infractors primed for the Emperor's Children. I'm trying to work on being more sparing with my primer. You don't need it to be fully opaque all over the model!
