The road to Heresy Doubles 4 - 30 minute Hobby Progress

More today! Getting the bases glued to something, this will make them easier to airbush evenly and then to paint afterwards. I found I was missing one after a count, thankfully it was hidden in the corner of my cheapo-DIY airbrush box.

60 bases ready and sorted. Hoping I'll have them all basecoated in the next post or a large part of them.

I'm going to try for this
  1. Prime black.
  2. Paint the earth areas with skavenblight dinge.
  3. Drybrush with longbeard grey.
  4. Paint the metal areas leadbelcher.
  5. Wash the whole thing agrax earthshade.
  6. Dab typhus corrosion onto the metal to give is some extra texture and provide the base for the rust.
  7. Then dab on some ryza rust onto some of those areas.
  8. Done.
This should give a nice base and somewhat match the theme of the other armies bases.

The road to Heresy Doubles 1 - 10 minute Hobby Progress

I'm on the hobby road to finishing the 30k Imperial Fist army I started last year. The marines saw three games of unpainted shame, the next game they're in will be with fully painted honours.

I have limited time most days so I'm aiming for at least a 10 minutes hobby progress each day with occasional 30 minute and 1 hour painting sessions. The 10 minute sessions should let me get everything ready to go for the longer ones, if everything is set up I can just sit down and paint straight away, no messing around for 10 or 20 minute before hand looking for tools, paints or models.

Lining up bases to make sure I have them all and get them ready to be glued to corks for airbrush basecoat.
