Spring Clean Project 2021 - Vlads Army
Getting some paint down
Well, finally had some time to get the brushes and paints out. Now I don’t get too much time during a normal week to paint and also being of a certain age, even with glasses, I struggle to see the finer details of models. That’s why I have now pretty much moved across to contrast paints.
I used to sit there for hours over a single model, painting, shading, highlighting, rinse and repeat and then get to the end and think I don’t really like the model. Now that has passed and although I am disappointed that I’m never going to win a Golden Demon, I am at least at peace with it lol 🙂
Contrasts for me work really well, I like the overall finish, models take less than 2 days to paint and using the 3ft rule – do look pretty good on the table top – win win win.
So with all this in mind, I’ve started painting. I have 3 holders so plan to do 2 germans and 1 Dads Army model at each session – I like to mix things up and not batch paint if I can avoid it.
The pics below are the greatest quality as it’s a really sunny day but hope you enjoy the progress.
PS – I think I might have to rename the project as I’ve now had a good look at all the German models and although very pulpy – there aren’t many zombies.
Onto the next set of 3 🙂
