I was very excited for this team as soon as it was announced. Thrilled to knock them out as soon as I could: and in about a week. Used the same technique I used on my Leviathan Tyranids, but I did punch highlights up by an extra step. I think the glowy green and wet […]
I took a crack at these thinking they’d paint quickly: I was right! Something’s up with the Dullcote I have that makes it less satin than I’d like: I’m trying out some AK Ultra-matte here, and it’s definitely WAY more matte than I’d like.
The Fireteam changes to N5 made me really excited to return to ISS – a huge difference from N4, in which the rules seemed actively tuned to punish the sectorial. So, I was delighted to grab the action pack and get it painted up. I skipped the models I already have painted (Celestial Guard, Crane […]
Painted the Kill Team Equipment because that seemed like the thing to do. Went quickly, no complaints! Spearhead sees some action at the game store so I was eager to hop on the new box. Very, very happy with how these game out.
I’m really satisfied with how these models came out… but something about them photographed kind of poorly. So poorly, in fact, that frustration over it kind of killed me posting here. I’m pushing through, posting them, and moving on, though. The special characters, who aren’t just Gunners/Heavy Gunners took 3 weeks to get done… the […]
While Dead Moon’s Hand was on my brain a few months back, I knocked out all of my Lunar backlog. I put more effort into these (Freelancers in desaturated blue, JAXA in orange) and I’m really in love with them. So much so I went back and painted the reflection on the faceplates of all […]
Back in :checks notes: early January, I made the following series of comments: [Lunar] would be better if it were Dead Man’s Hand… in Space Cowboys on the Moon:– DMH rules– Every weapon gets a piercing/bludgeoning stat.– Piercing weapons work as is– Bludgeoning weapons get a different table: get a distance in cm they push […]
I’m pretty grouchy about a local store’s prices, so I’m going to complain about it here. I’ve brought pricing issues up with them a couple of times – not this specific purchase, but enough other purchases that it’s clearly 1) pattern that 2) isn’t going to be fixed. (I don’t want to put them on […]
I painted up a Minotaurs Intercession Squad for Kill Team two years back, but with the new Kill Team edition conflating the Intercession Squad and Strike Force Justian into the single Angels of Death list… I had some gaps in option coverage. So I knocked out the three models I needed: a Captain, an Eliminator, […]
