Seventeen Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 (edited) Finally posted figs to Photobucket. Malifaux is my first mini's game since Confrontation 3.5. Probably going to sell all my stuff (Mid-Nor/Cynwall/Wolfen, Menoth, Sisters of Battle, and Necrons) to invest in Malifaux and terrian when the WWG stuff comes out. Here's the link to the album: http://s1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd492/achieve_more/Malifaux/Gunslingers/ Didn't like the positioning of Nino or Papa Loco so tried to find something that made sense. HUGE regret! Not quite realizing how few models I'd need to complete a crew, picked up Army Builder's Quickshade to seal and "cheat" highlighting/shading all in one step. Yep I was one of those that doused all of my GW figs with Tamiya "Smoke" in the late 80's... Shoulda left it back in that decade... EDIT: Just so I wouldn't have to create another post, here's the link to my Pandora Crew also: http://s1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd492/achieve_more/Malifaux/Legion%20of%20Sorrows/ As I love card magic, I thought it appropriate to use playing cards to base my Neverborn... here's the link to the cards for those interested: http://www.ellusionist.com/arcane-deck-playing-cards.html I find it curious how because my bases weren't created freehand but were fabricated that other players poo-poo on the bases. Not saying it's right or wrong... just find it curious about our culture. Enjoy! Comments welcome!

Iamwyrd Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Okay so they look good. Have you tried spraying testors dull coat on them So they aren't shiney. I love the bases, it looks really wild westy. And I love ninos pose, and papas. They look good, but I recommend dull coat to take away the shineyness.

dgraz Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Hunh? Who's poo-pooing the bases? I think they're one of the coolest things about your work. Why re-create the wheel when you can use something cool that's already out there? No shame in that. Lot's of people use resin bases (all of my Malifaux stuff is on resin bases) - what's the difference? Anyway, looking pretty good, they definately need a dull-coat to get rid of that shine.

Seventeen Posted September 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Got some dull cote on my lunch break. God bless Ace Hardware! Thanks for the advice guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuesday Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 They look awesome. Agreeing with the suggestion for some dull-coat sealer, but apart from that.. man. Very nice job. Just be careful with that sealer if it's at all humid out, it has a habit of clouding up in the wrong weather. And... I am trying my hardest not to steal your idea for playing card bases. It does give a great effect, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
