In 11 Days, We Ambush
Day Ten
It’s done. Not perfect but done.
My RPG group got cancelled so I got a bonus evening to paint. At the start of the evening I had three butchers, eight shadow hounds and two character models to paint. Now they’re all finished and based!
To be clear, the paint jobs across the whole army are one coat of Contrast paint over a zenithal prime with some metallic put on the weapons. Do I love the look? No but I don’t dislike it as much as I thought I would. However, in ten days I have a painted army ready for the table.
Done, not perfect.
I had a little time left over today so I added some spots on the heads of the butchers and even just that one detail really lifted them. I should manage a couple of hours work on the project tomorrow so I’ll need to have a wee think overnight about what I want to prioritise for Saturday’s game. Given I’ve used Contrast, I know I’ll need to do at least a quick coat (preferably a couple) of varnish.
I also need to find a head. When I went to paint the Shade, I found I’d just completely skipped gluing it’s face on. Oops. It doesn’t look too bad given the theme of the model but yeah… find the face is on the to do list.
