I’m going to do them in batches of 2 sets of monsters and three or four heroes at a time to keep myself sane. I find projects like this are all about mitigating the soul destroying attrition of batch painting with the regular temporary endorphine boosts triggered by achievement. This will mean doing things in sets of about 15.
I’ll base black then do a posh zenithil of light grey at 45 degrees then white from above finished with an edge dry brush of white.
I find this works wonders for contrast (instant results) normal brushwork (as a guide) and airbrushing (creating natural gradient of shades behind thin layers).
OBVIOUSLY I’ll be mostly using contrast paints or I would be mentally ill.
However I will spot paint with normal brush and airbrush when it suits it.
I’ve also become a recent convert to oil washes so I’m going to be trying them out to discover if when used on terrible soft plastic low definition sculpts they:
A) Are miracle cure alls
B) A waste of time
I suspect B
First test subjects. Earth Elementals and Naga, here we go…..

I really like this game, because it’s one of the few with a skill tree. It’s also easy to play coop, by skipping opponent turns. Best wishes on the project. I have two copies and the expansion, which have sat unpainted and unplayed for years! :/
