Traders Galaxy 2024 Painting Challenge - Botwar, Beat Em Up and Rise of the Democracy miniatures
Traders Galaxy Painting Challenge 2024 - Day 9
The realisation that the amount of time I am taking on the bases has hit home! I got in 2 hours today, yet it felt like very little progress was made. The most progress probably came from Sydney, who is starting to get all Dallas Cowboy fan styling.
Then I messed about with a load of spare armaments that I had, so I am preparing some missiles being fired and a proper loadou that I’m going to attach to my 2 Strikeforce when I get them on the paint table. I’m going to do different livery for the aircraft as i already have one done in the Skystriker livery. I found a great blue camo scheme which you can see in the pictures and a picture of a Crimson Strike from my own collection. As you saw earlier in the week, The U.S.S. Flagg base is ready and I got my big explosion a few days ago, so that is being painted up also. Fingers crossed that these two bases work!
I’ve been using this Green Stuff World UV putty, which is really useful for sculpting. It’s more like the consistency of vaseline but great for basing and shine UV on it and it cures in a few seconds.
I messed around with the base for Gorg, getting some of his victims on there, I had some tiny 3D printed tyres in clear resin, so I painted them up and then suspended them over 3 of his victims… why, you’ll find out soon! I’m one rocket launcher short which I should be able to do tomorrow and then I’m just waiting on a door mat for my crop circle ( I know it’s difficult to keep up with where my mind is going).
John has had a bit more work on his clothes and boots.
Finally I got the first coat on my castle walls.
