  1. Most of you probably have no clue what this is about but if you do, would really like an opinion.

    So I recently on a whim thought I would like to make a crew with Mr. Gone as the leader and with a bunch of Isz as the crew. (want to do the maxx and the leapard queen but only crew that seems to fit is marcus and dont really want to play him). So I have decided that the most fitting crews would be either Hamlin or Collodi. The look of Hamlin is most similar to Mr. Gone as is his play style but he has more model variety, so was thinking i would use Collodi cause im lazy. My question is simply, the Isz dont have any real differentiation. Was thinking i would do like a dressed grouping of them for stitched, but wasnt sure how to differentiate wicked dolls and marionettes. Only thing i could think of so far is just adding knives in the hands of one or the other but dont think that is enough variation. Any ideas?

    To help with knowing who im referring to, there was a comic book which became a cartoon series on MTV which was called The Maxx. Mr. Gone was the villain and used little henchmen things called is (isz is plural). They look like... well take the 7up spot, make him all black, no eyes, scraggly nasty grin, you have an is

  2. So for the most part I use alot of washes and drybrrushing when i paint. I have been thinking i would like to paint my marionettes to look like they are in a spotlight. So far i have been thinking i would paint the model like normal and just do some black wash on the back etc. Just not sure if this would end up how i want. Anybody have suggestions on better ways to pull this off?

  3. i dont know the rules for these crews too much so maybe the play style wouldnt fit, but im thinking probably the LaCroix crew, maybe the Oregas, or even... that guild dude with the mask... --edit Lucias--

    Actually now that i think about it, while the feel of the lacroix group sounds best, the height would be wrong

  4. So what times are you guys usually playing at bridgetown? (didnt they change names?) Dice age is where i used to play but they moved their stuff from saturday to monday because of availability of the person running it and so i have to look for somewhere else to play. havent actually played in like too months :(

    Ooh... actually sundays at foster sound good too... been needing to go down to Fubonn more anyway.

  5. why must you people make me cringe so with your threats of non model spray paints (im sure its the same but i still cant bring myself to do it)

    Anyway, I used to LOOVE my black primer and had a hard time giving it up, but something you may want to try that has worked fantastic for me is gray scaling. Theres some good videos on how to do it on youtube, (there is one where the guy is doing witchling stalkers which is particularly helpful). I start with white primer, then use adeptus battle grey thinned out significantly with thinner medium. that brings it out pretty well on its own but once that dries i do a standard dry brush over everything with fortress grey and then a light drybrush with white.

    yes it sounds like this is alot of steps just to "prime" but the thing thats nice about this is from there on the model can get its color from just a thinned out layer of whatever you want to use. My Silurids got the greyscale treatment, then got one layer of thinned green (dont remember the color but its an awesome mossy tone from p3) then i picked out their fins and tentacles with a bit of red drybrushing at the tips and then just teeth/claws/eyes. Got done with all three in like 45 mins and they look like i did a ton of detail work on.
