Dreadball Spring Clean Hobby Challenge 2022
Communal Washing (21/3/22)
All the airbrushing has had about 48 hours to dry, so I rushed home from work and applied washes over everything I could. I filled up my work tray, otherwise I might have got more done. This is 31 models all being worked on at the same time. I’ll go in to more specifics on colours later on, when I focus on pieces a little more.
There is some more washing left to do, but next time I sit down to paint I can actually do some “real” painting if I wish. I’m going to focus on units first to get me some quick wins and clear off my desk. The Z’zor are almost done, and the Corporation colour scheme was chosen specifically to be quick and lazy.
31 models having a communal wash
This is Privateer press's Chitin guide. This is what I used to paint my Z'zor last time, and what I'm using to get the last 3 up to standard
I've 2 undead to paint, so let's fall back on a classic scheme: Privateer press's Dead Flesh guide
My Asterian ladies, and my two Zees will be done using PP's Blighted Flesh guide. I think I skipped a later stage or two for my previous Zee's
Pretty sure I used this guide for my previous Marauders. This time I swapped out the base colour for Army painter Mars Red, for the convenience of using a dropper bottle with my air brush.I said I was out all of Sunday in my last entry. I went to a Warmachine tournament. The Sherwood Spring Steamroller. Always a great day. A relaxed tournament with an all day buffet (Or, lets be honest, an all day buffet with some games attached to it!). I’ve barely had a game in 2 years, so it’s no surprise I came last of 14 in my group (there were 2 “pods”, each a tournament for up to 16. There were some last minute cancellations due to plague). I won a game though and I’m happy with that. I had lots of fun and ate too much and won some prizes.
The last place wooden spoon was actually a shiny engraved toilet brush, now on display in my living room
Each round also has a spot prize. First to do a task decided by the organiser. I won won for being the first in my pod to finish a game, and I got my caster assassinated really fast in round 3! My opponent got a set of faction dice and a template. I won an engraved shot glass and an objective damage tracker widget
