Finished up Ivan Double Agent, Jin, and the Bokor for 28ss, excited to get them on the table. Ignore Harata in these pictures, hadn't sealed him yet last month so he ended up in the lineup after getting sealed this month.

As far as paint goes, I use a little of everything, even some craft store paint bottles (totally doable, you'll just be thinning them a lot more) but mostly I've found I like vallejo. Not only do they have good paint, it comes in dropper bottles. Shake, pop a few drop onto my palette (wet palette from Redgrass Games, love it) thin with water (a drop or two of water for vallejo, more for the craft store paint) mix until roughly milk consistency, paint onto mini with brush. Hasn't steered me wrong yet, but I'm always looking for new techniques. As for this month, finishing up the three I started last month but not quite finished: Bokor, Jinn, and Ivan: Double Agent.

Wow, looking great everyone! Great start to the year. I had a good start to the month, getting Harata done early, and made good progress on my other three pledged models despite a few bits of life cropping up (also why I couldn't get to my light box), but they're not quite there and will shift to February. Still, 9ss gets me my pledge, and my Performer crew is happy to have him available. -

Starting off the year with Ivan: Double Agent, Gin, Haarata, and a Bokor. As for brushes, I've been enjoying my W/N Series 7, caring for them with "The Master" Brush Cleaner & Pteserver, and generally being nice to them by avoiding anything even close to dry brushing with them. -

Happy New Year all! Finished these up last night for a friend. Title Yan, a Gokudo, Alt Jakunna, a Shikome, and Kenshiro for 44ss. Dr @Caedrus congratulations! And thanks for running the challenge through these last years, it's kept me going on painting many times! -

I'm curious, what are you using them for to make them so good? Granted, summoning a Take the Hit model with a heal to back up something holding a point is a good plan, but I'm getting stuck on their heal being Living only, and that's only 5 models in the keyword besides Zoraida.

Boomstick replied to Caedrus's topic in Miniature Showcase
Lots of good looking, colorful models everyone! @Caedrus I wasn't timing myself, and did a lot of assembly line painting, so no clue if I hit the official Speed painting timing, but for the number of models done this month I feel pretty good about it (though it was a good reminder why I'm glad to not paint 40k armies any more). Finished up a Witchling Handler, 4 Stalkers (1 translucent), 2 Thralls, the Brutal Effigy, and my Pale Rider (via a repurposed Rollins) for a total of 58ss this month -
