The Barons' War
Progress Update 01-03-2025
Happy New Year all! I’ve been productive this week and caught up on some of the miniatures I didn’t complete over Christmas. I’m quite pleased with how most of the came out. I have also hit a milestone of finishing the archer unit and the foot knights.
I’ve been employing the ‘slap chop’ method of painting for this project and I’m still thrilled with the results.
I am not good with a rattle can so I prime black with an inexpensive airbrush to start all of my projects now.
Grey Plastic without style.
All black, the coolest color.Pioneering new ground in miniature painting, I know! From there I just do a super heavy dry brush of warm neutral gray. The only tip I have on that is to get a dry brush palette. That truly was a game changer for me.
Here is the result off this week.
I’m proud of the mounted knight. The shield was a pain and I’m second guessing the purple on the horse but, all told, I’m pleased.
More fodder for the field of battle!
I’m very happy with how the foot knight came out. He can double as a foot baron if I need. That shield really was a pain. Glad I did it though.
I’ll end with a few shots of completed units. Good luck everyone out there with your projects!
