Home Raiders: Gremlins
So, finally some pictures!
The original Home Raider kickstarter box came with two factions – Lilliputians and Gremlins. I didn’t buy any of the other factions, so there are 15 models in total t paint up. Unfortunately when I opened the box I discovered there were two casualities with broken feet. So a little bit of pinning later I have the full set.
So my first models are the Gremlin Mechanics.
Their basic outfit is red and I wanted to stick with this but to 'soften' it a bit with the addition of a warm Orange.
The first step in the leather items was a base coat of Chocolate Brown
Woodgrain and Japanese Uniform were used for the faces/hair of the little men
Their weapons were given base coats of Gunmetal and Brass and their goggles also in Gunmetal
The leatherwork continues with "Flat Earth" a warm brown colour
and the uniforms given a next step with Vermillion red
Metal overcoated with Nuln Oil to "dirty" them up
Leather items given a wash of Smoke
Sepia shade on the facesSo, all the initial painting done. Next step is to add the next couple of steps on the uniform, and to start to pick out the details on the models.
A bit of a slow start, but so far at least, I’m happy to have actually started!
Happy Gaming!
