    Yah glad you said that. There's clearly enough tying them together that they don't need identical details. The big black armor and horns are enough.

    Getting a friend ready for my Chaos Warrior. Do you guys like the red spikes or these brass/gold spikes better on the armor? He is WIP but the one with red is pretty much done. I was also thinking maybe adding some highlights on the red spikes might improve them.

    Damn that looks great @bigmark268 . You even have the EQ boxes on the side..... got me right in the nostalgia bone. Well done.

    Hah yeah I've managed to draw blood myself with this hobby. Battle scars. Yep these dudes are awesome. Love the poses on them. I need to take better pictures, the highlights don't show very well. Or maybe I need to make them bolder. Either way off and running!

    @Hateyou those look awesome. Do they come on those bases like that? I really like the one on the left. What are you using to get that glow effect on the worm? Meaning is it inks or glazes or just normal acrylic paints with lots of layers.

    I dig that guy! What is he from? I think he'd go well with my Chaos Army. I'm not really feeling any of the Warcry sets so I'm still waiting on what to get next. Here is a pic of my display so far. I switched it up to forest. The Chaos Slaves to Darkness are completely unpainted. I'll be...

    Cats (2019)

    I saw the play Cats when I was a kid. I guess because everyone was going to see it? It was bizarre... but they had a good song here and there. That Memories song was everywhere. I'm not sure why everyone is so surprised this movie is bad. Even looking at the costumes it seems like exactly...

    Update time for me. I gotta get back in a flow. Holidays totally derailed me. My Dwarves from the Greywater Set are done and have been based and pretty much 100% done. I have my Stormcast Eternals mostly painted up from the Thunderstrike set. I think it's maybe 14 of the 18 in the set done...

    Those look awesome, I like those models a lot. Nice job on them @Koushirou I definitely have to make it a point to schedule time to do this. In my case I honestly feel like it keeps me from working too hard and relieves stress. I got myself some noise cancelling over ear headphones and I'm...

    Got some cool scatter terrain. Battlefields in a Box: Sacrificial Rocks Really good quality stuff, they are very solid. Not foam or cheap plastic. They feel like rock.

    Nice! That is really good to hear. Second time this week I've heard of a vortex mixer. I'll have to look them up. I'm also seeing a lot of people transfer their paint to dropper bottles from those citadel pots. I'm not sure if I'm up for that hah. I see the value though. Here's a WIP shot...

    I'll post some pictures later or at some point, but yesterday I went ahead and primed another 9 Stormcast. I gave a bunch of them a spray of the Citadel Retributor Armour that comes in a rattle can. I have to say, it does the job. Over priced for a rattle can, but effective. I did prime them...

    I love those little Goblins! Grots I think? Awesome. I'll have to paint one of them up at some point.

    Dude you're getting really good at OSL. Are you just now learning it or have you been doing it a while? Seems like you've got it down ! I have yet to attempt it.

    Funny you mention it, I did buy some greenstuff after seeing that gap in his shoulder armor hah. Well the Amazon brand equivalent. I'll see how it goes. If not I'll buy the greenstuff from their site. I've never tried Scale 75 personally. They do sell them in the hobby shop by me though I...

    Those are really cool looking. Do you have a place to display these? I'm trying to figure something more permanent out for mine. My current progress... a handful more Stormcast are base coated... I'm gonna work on the big guy in the box next I think!

    Ohh very good question. I honestly hadn't thought about the hover thing on the base. Hmm. I'll look around and see what I can find. Wow I just looked up a knight castellian. That's insane for under 50 bucks. Nice find!

    Stormcast Prosecutor has a base coat on and a quick wash. Next up is highlights! I have an army of these guys to paint up. I did buy the Citadel Gold armor spray can, I may try it on the next one to do the base coat of gold armor.

    Yah I like 5/7/9 also. 7 and 9 are a bit close though, maybe red/nuln mix will make it a deeper red. Or red/agrax. Thanks Kovaks! I was happy with it too. I just got some white Stynlrez primer I'm going to try on the wings of my next guy. Looking forward to seeing how that works out.

    A bit more progress on the Stormcast bro. I am also constructing a Prosecutor which I think is going to look totally badass if I can do a decent job on him.

    Are you leaning towards any? I'm personally liking the idea of different colors for each faction. I like 7 and 5 - Seraphim and Drakenhof.. and for a 3rd I'd like a bit of more "red" to the Reikland shade. So yellow/blue/red. I dig #4, that purple. But the purple is kinda close to the blue.

    The Mandalorian

    I think it's definitely solid! And yes it's graded on a bit of a curve compared to the last few shitty SW movies. The main character has an arc, he is very capable but not perfect and has to be saved multiple times. They set up the motivations well with helping foundlings. The Mandalorian...

    Ok finally got around to putting a decent (but simple) base on these dwarves. And I'm on to the next Army! First Stormcast is a WIP but I figured I'd post him anyway. I managed to get his face, weapon and base painted up. I like how they gave me an interesting base for these guys. I like...

    Yo mini bros. I am just catching up on this thread. Good shit as always. So I'm still finishing up my Greywater Fastness army but I'm making progress. 10 Dwarves complete, the final 3 are primed. It's 2 heroes and a Gyrocopter. Started painting the 1st hero. So the end is in sight. I...

    Ha! Very accurate. I am undeterred though. I'm loving my first Start Collecting. I'm up to 8 now and 3 more are primed. These are still WIP but coming along!

    I just tried a new base myself. I'll post a pic of that also, but here is the latest from the Dwarves. Up to 6 now! And the base is red paint on the bottom, and Citadel's Agrellan Earth on top to form the cracked look / lava underneath. I may do this on the dwarves but still not sure.

    I ended up printing the free mini from this set! It's really nice, although I didn't get in on the kickstarter because I'm already backlogged hah. Amazon mini and the current status of the Dwarven army

    Love that purple. Looks tremendous! My Dwarven army is growing. Tabletop level, gonna build the rest of them and do a round of touch ups and highlights. At least that's the plan ha

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I mean... eh. I admit I'll probably go see it, but I'm not proud of that. The only interesting thing here is Rey / Kylo and if they work together. (by the way, I completely forgot Kylo Ren's name, I had to google it. That's sad). They made it clear the force is just a never ending jerk...
