Mondays are a slow day, the same goes for painting. I managed an hour once the kids had gone to bed.

Gorg got a little highlighting on his brain and then a covered his tentacles using Contrast Striking Scorpion green – it’s just one of those colours that I really love!

Nick got his jacket and boots darkened and his metal knee pads and belt done.

I started on John, who is going to be knocking Nick’s head off, so I wanted some progress there.

I think I have finished my Red’s Rescue, I finished off the rooftop with some astrogranite and part of what is supposed to be an H for helicopter landing pad. The idea is that Red and her troops are stuck on the rooftop and have released a flare in hope of rescue. I’ll put the usual photos and vid up tomorrow seperately on facebook and Youtube.

The ninjas all needed their belt colours lighter, so I went over these again to get better coverage. I then started and got through only 4 of them adding darker shading. The Green Ninja is looking a little greener now.

Leviathon got a very fast drybrush to lighten his edges.

And during my lunch I collected so prints off the resin printer. I’m still trying to get to grips with it. I have realised now I was definitely over exposing my prints, so I have dialed that back and getting slightly better prints, now I’m just dialling in the fineness of detail. The 2 light tanks picture shows the one on the top was over exposed, the one on the right was less exposed but printed faster. I also printed off a couple of the exclusive Beat Em Up thugs, so might try and get them painted this month too. And some missile trails that I’ll be needing for various bases.
