Traders Galaxy 2024 Painting Challenge - Botwar, Beat Em Up and Rise of the Democracy miniatures
Traders Galaxy Painting Challenge 2024 - Day 14
Valentine’s Day, the day of romance, how better to celebrate than heading off to the shed to paint some more minis. 
I started as always, rather than finishing the miniatures I’ve started, I thought I’d start some more. So I started another 21 new miniatures! Okay so 16 of them are 10mm Democracy infantry, they just got their first green coat. Then there was 5 bad guys from Beat Em Up because I always end up painting all the good guys and having no-one to fight. At least a couple off the thugs were the exclusive poses from the Traders Galaxy MyMiniFactory subscription… cool! I only managed to cover a bit of flesh and some clothing.
Then Leviathon got some Azure Magic (metallic turquiose paint) I really like the colour, although it was surprisingly close to the colour that Leviathon was alredy, so there was no real contrast just a little shinier. But that is fine as I intend to hit him with some of the shapeshifter colours in the future, to try and get an almost shimmering skin.
I started on a couple of Barracuda as I have loads of these both from Botwar and Broken Skies. I decided that I would paint them like their namesakes, so they will be silver, going from dark to light at the botton and then get the telltale stripes of these fast fish.
Finally I painted what will become my wrecked Buzzard, that A-10 grey and put some dark patches for battle damage and fires.
