@spectreelitegaming - mars volta is awesome. If you want to experience something really trippy, que up de-loused in the coma-torium on pause at the very beginning, and then, play the movie, the Cell with Jennifer Lopez where she goes into the serial killers mind.  There is a part where they put a cloth on her face. It is the first time she goes into his mind.  As soon as it switches to a bunch of thread and yarn like looking circles, press play on the album set to repeat.  This shit will blow your mind.   The synchronicities are just crazy.

I really love your bright colors. Zoraida is next on my list to purchase but I probably won't get around to painting her for awhile since I'm in the contest. Well, maybe some theme relevant to her will pop up.

Anyway, how did you do those bases with the faces in the floor? Is that free hand. Nice

I really like what you did there. I have found that near black is tough to paint and haven't actually figured out a good approach for me yet in doing that.  The eyes look nice but I wonder if you'd get more contrast by using some orange glow, since you have blue on the backs. Orange / Blue being opposite colors will give high contrast.

For sure

I can never remember if I have put the finishing varnish on a figure or not. And I needed a place to store all my painting notes anyway, so I devised this Tracker Spreadsheet so I know what I have done. I'm planning on painting the entire collection so this comes in really handy.

There are Variables for amount owned, whether the model is assembled, primed, painted, varnished and based as well as an overview of building a crew options (all taken from the pull my finger wiki). I also hyperlink all of the models to their respective strategy guides on that wiki. 

Here are some sample images, I'm currently trying to sign up for drop box so I can provide the document.

Is this a resource that anyone might want to use?

Here is a link to the Guild Tracker. I'll probably work on Neverborn next.

I have a shit load to trade or sell but I wanted to see if there is interest for this first before going to all the trouble posting pictures.

I have mostly Warriors of Choas, Skaven, Orcs and Goblins

lol, love the heart tatoo on sybelle.  And I really like the way you colored the cobblestone streets. I need to step up my basing process and focus on it more than just dry brushing it.  I'm gonna have a look around your thread dude, call me subscribed.

Hey guys, I wonder if I might take a moment to share another creative venture I'm currently developing.  I opened an Etsy shop, please stop over and check it out. I'd appreciate any social media tweets, shares etc, if you think the site is worth sharing with others.  Thanks alot.

In the meantime, I'm currently working on a Model Tracker Spreadsheet so I can keep track of model - owned, assemble, primed, painted, varnished, based and also I'm going to throw in some tid bits about crew building for each of the crew boxes (all taken from the wiki) with also having hyper-links in the spreadsheet to the specific pull my finger wiki strategy guides.  I'm leaving an area under each crew section to keep track of the paint schemes I'm using. I'm just about done with the Guild and I'll upload it for Community use soon.

Sure, I found them on Amazon but they are available elsewhere. This company also makes different sizes too, so if you look around you might find something more to your size crew or what have you.

Really, really nice dude. I was just painting my Guild Guard today and am still working out the paint scheme. I went with blue for the coat but haven't settled on the pants yet. Right now I'm eyeing doombull brown from GW cause it's kind of cool'ish with hints of deep purple.

I really like your Captain Dashel and the light brown/tan against the pale shirt really stands out, especially with those red accents.  Love the Lone Marshall as well, I'm gonna have to dig out that model and paint it.

Can't wait to see more...

Really digging the Seamus and the belles! You do really cool undead skin. But the main man himself is really good!

Thank you. I was inspired by Mako's write up in the Chronicles issue.  I'm trying to resist the urge to buy the mindless undead and crooked men. lol I want them but I have models already that need painted.

Seamus Crew

Doing the base like I did with the inverted on bottom really helps with being able to grab the modle without have to touch it. The lip really gives you something to grasp onto.

Are you kidding me!? I spend around 10rs on some models and they are nowhere near that!

well thanks for the kind words. I usually leave detailed notes on the colors and mixes I use in my main painting thread.  Hopefully I be posting some new models there soon.

Congrats on the house! Well that really is a stunning display.

Man you are insane. how long did it take you to paint that Nicodem or McMourning? Do you remember?

About 3 hours on Nicodem and 2 on McMourning (not including the base, which I just did yesterday)

I've been well, thanks.  I moved 6 months ago and bought a house.  That's why I've been working to set up this area all nice now that I have the room to do so.  I am awaiting another desk to match so I can set up a dedicated paint station instead of lugging everything into the kitchen and taking up the table.  I'm still looking for a good lighting set up though. I thought about getting one of those magnifying circle led lights. I'm not sure what they are called exactly.

Now that I have this set up, I have more motivation to get to painting so it can be complete.  I only have 3 more slots left for crews but luckily there is a whole wall to the right I could put shelving on

I'll probably just fill in the stragglers into the various boxes, crooligans, crooked men, etc. Although I haven't played the game yet so I don't know what goes with what at the moment.  I plan to paint the whole set eventually.  Delusions of Granduer, I know, lol.

Wow! Dude what the hell!! That is freaking amazing!

thanks dude, hey look at the top right, I got that Spawn Bust

how have you been doing man?

double post

Hey guys, I took an extended break for awhile but I'm back into the swing of things. 

I found these inexpensive model car display units for around 10-15 each.  I put down strips of magnets and stuck the other end on the bottom of the miniatures to hold them in place. These stack really nice too.  The magnets aren't super strong but I imagine these could be used to transport your mini's if you aren't going far; maybe to a friend's house.

I finally found a use for all those model boxes I was saving too. Take a look.

and here are a couple singles, I need to buy more display boxes

and here is what the whole shelf looks like. The bottom row is all comics I'm currently reading and collecting. The 2nd row are Graphic Novels and Trade paperbacks of various comics.  There is a boatload of models that I own but haven't painted yet, as you can see by the empty slots, lol.  As Mako says, we all collect an army of grey plastic that goes unpainted.

lol, those are awesome.

Haha.....thanks........and now I'll never be able to look at the orange 'Jazz-Hands' Silurid the same again.

lmao "jazz hands" yep, I was actually doing that the other day when I was drunk. I forget what I was talking about but distinctly remember doing the motion and saying "jazz hands!"

I really love how you made the Silurids sorta like poison dart frogs plus the poses they are in makes it seem like they are doing a freeze frame pose to blend in (which is thematically appropriate considering their abilities).

haha, I live in Marion, I'd be down. I have never played though, so maybe you can teach me some things.

I don't mind the art (although I'm not a fan of it), I'm eagerly awaiting the miniatures and rules. Even if the mini's don't turn out great, I purchased Cthulu Wars and will have plenty of miniatures to use.

haha that's nice dude
