Painting Table #8 2019

These last few weeks saw me focused on two things. First and the most time consuming was working through  two boxes of  many pre-loved junk lots. I am about 80% done them now. The big score was the massive number of marines out of the box for my two kids to paint up. The big score for me was a few models that should work well for gamma wolves.

Then on the painting front I took all 3 teams from base coats to finished. So now me and the kids can have 3 very different looking teams when we play.

More as I get it done and have the time.

Painting Table #7 2019

Sorry for the long gap in posts. I have been trying to refocus my energies in general. Mainly towards hobby and family. So I have been avoiding the computer. So I have actually done a lot. So here is a small sample.

Did a lot of work helping build and get painted some of my oldest sons tyranids for kill team.

Built my kill teams from the box set.

Some knights for AT.

Finished off all the previously seen titans.

This is just a sample. I have built more models but have them stashed away. I also built 4 gundams for a new Gamma Wolves. I have also been gaming more with my kids. Which has left my desk and work area in the current mess. So one of my big jobs this weekend is to clean up my area. So I can get back to work with more painting and building.

Painting Table Update #6 2019

Didn't realize so much time had passed between posts. Here is a selection of what I have been up to over the past month or so.

First I built a few gates for gaslands. As well as a full set of templates and tokens. The kids and I even managed to get in two games.

Then lots of priming and some base coating. Followed by painting of my Titans.

To be honest there is still a ton more priming to do. With how bad the weather has been here air quality wise using my airbrush has been hard. So I have had to do a lot of it by hand. What's left to prime are all the arms and such for titans, the gates and another 50 or so models. But I started running out of space for drying stuff so decided to get some painting done first. Once I finish nailing down the basics for the titans I will run through them which will actually clear a good amount of space. Then the cars. At that point I should be able to either revisit the titans to finish off there arms and such or get back to work on the Test of honor stuff.

Will try to make sure to post more often.

Painting Table Update#5 2019

Not really any painting this week. I have continued on my building binge. Will do a mass basecoat either this or next weekend and then start painting again.

 Some mantic models I hope to use in various systems.

 Not sure if I showed the next batch of Test  of Honor guys.

Another batch of cars converted for Gaslands.

I plan on building more test of honor guys. This week and have at least 1 more vehicle to convert.
That is it for this past week.

Painting Table #3 2019

These past two week I have had the joy of using my new wet pallet and finishing off the first batch of test of honor guys. I also finished up construction on the warlords and had some fun painting with my kids.

Here are the photos of the first batch of finished test of honor guys.

Next I will be finishing off the next chunk of guys for test of honor. Then I will move on to the Titans and remaining Test of Honor guys.

I'll put up a review of my new wet pallet next and a painting update when I get more done.

Painting Table #1 2019

Sorry about the lateness of this post. I originally published all on Sunday evening from my phone and it seems to have failed.


This week I built and magnetized four warhounds and two reavers. Then built some additional guys for Test of Honor.

Then I also base coated and started putting color on all these test of honor guys.

That's all for last week. More this weekend.

Painting Update

This past week saw me with some vacation and no kids. So I finished off the goliath gang that has been sitting on my desk the last 6 months and also painted up my escher gang. The skin on both gangs is strange because of the experimenting with different skin paints and washes. Fyi vallejo skin was is supper redish brown.

I did do other things as well such as basing a bunch of test of honor minis and starting assembly of others.
More next week.
