Have any good names for this nasty little fella?

Thanks! I'm happy with how it turned out.

I haven't seen state of play, but mixing colors/color theory can be quite fun!

Inks can be fiddly, but they can produce great results. They're more prone to tearing or reactivating and wearing away than normal acrylics so you have to be gentle with them after applying.

Also, you can glaze with most any acrylic paints in addition to inks. Some colors have more transparent pigments in them and will work better than others but the technique can still be used.

Inks tend to be quite strong so I usually dillute them heavily with water before applying thin glazes. They do work with mediums, but I don't tend to use them.

The slime is made from modge podge dimensional magic with some inks over the top.

Thanks, it was really fun moving from red to green on these dirty fellas.

 

I can't figure out how to post multiple photos on eternity, or I'd post more of these guys in one post. I really enjoyed painting this group for the start of a mordheim warband.

Sounds great! I love painting skin because it can be so varied in hue. Even human skin has greens and blues in it even though it's usually looks more brown, red or yellow.

 

I haven't used this fella in a game yet, which is ashame since he was painted several years ago. The pandemic really put a damper on my game playing.

I both love and hate looking at him because he's so disgusting.

He's 3D printed in resin from the creator StationForge. I used mostly Vallejo and ak paints as well as Vallejo pigments for the base.

What a fun project. I like the greens mixed into the blue skin.

I'm certainly not painting these models that quickly. I recently went back and photographed a bunch of older minis that I painted.

Depending on the month I probably paint 5-20 models, though not always to the same standard.

Oh we played it only a few times but it felt maybe too shallow for us. At the skirmish size I think we wanted a bit more than opr gave. But I wouldn't let my feelings dissuade you. Ive heard lots of folks liking it quite a bit.

Agreed, though I would also be down for more tightly regulated and graded housing similar to our restaurants in the short term.

Thanks! Ya it's replaced all of GWs rules for us, though I'm not as stoked on the skirmish varients from OPR.

 

Been having a lot of fun with one page rules and converting custom models to get the flavor I want.

So cool to see people developing games for older systems. Has anyone played them? Are they good?

 

I'm mostly happy with the OSL 😅

 

Just finished all the armor and now on to cloth bits! I used greenish white, deep yellow and dark Prussian blue (ak) over a purple undercoat.

 

Pretty quick paintjob on her. The pose makes taking photos awkward.
