PAINT FOR THE PAINT GOD!!!
So…First month done!
My plan with this project is to try new techniques. I started using an airbrush to prime my models instead of rattle cans. This allows me to prime and/or base coat in my office inside a portable spray booth. I’m also using the Army Painter Speedpaints to increase my productivity. This decision came after much thought about using what little free time I have in the best way possible. As I work full time and run my 3d printing company, I have very little time to paint. I want to get as much done with the time I have so here we are. I’m very happy with the results and I think the speedpaints will be a valuable addition to my hobby tool box. I like the vibrant colours, ease of application and despite the learning curve, I do save a lot of valuable time.
This portion of the army is as follows:
Tactical Squad – 250 points
1 Assault Marine on Jet-bike – 47.5 points
Total – 297.5 points
Here is the family photo so far
The jet bike will be added to a full 8-man unit which will be a thing of beauty on the table top. I like the idea of a mounted assault squad but wasn’t too keen on the horses as I don’t feel they properly represent the 40K genre. I think the jet bike captures the chaos feel quite well.
Good Idea using jet bikes- the army painter looks great btw. I was just given some mounted chaos renegades for Xmas, and it will be Juggernauts for me- been collecting them!
