StormCast as fast as lightning

About the Project
With lots of Soul Wars items just arrived I wanted to get all the StormCast miniatures I own to a tabletop standard. I don't intend to make this my main army so I just wanted to it to a playable state. So I spent the week do the fastest work I could and I think it turned out ok.

Trying to get back into the swing
Struggling to keep tempo but got a few more done this week. Keeping it simple but in the larger force they will work well on the table.
More to do...
Been a couple weeks since I picked up a brush but decided to sit down tonight and get some more Stormcast ready for the table.
Simple process as before spending about an hour a model.
What is next
So I know this is not going to set anyone’s world on fire but I am happy that in a very short period of time just over a week I have a fairly sizable force in tabletop ready condition.
And now I am ready for this lot
The result
So a few hours each night.
- Laying down base colours
- Putting down a coat of dip
- Covering the base in super glue and dipping it in a mix of gravel, sand, stones and other bits
- Quick dry brush here and there
- Matt Varnish to finish
And you are done 😀
The method
Ok so this is classic army painter style.
I primed everything with the Citadel Retributor Armour Spray, I pretty much got it done with one can and it took about 30 minutes to do the entire lot.
I then wanted to keep a simple theme so lots of gold, whites and blue, with red handles to the weaponry. I know this is boring but it meant I could a good rhythm going.
Pretty much this is all I used throughout…
The only thing you probably won’t recognise is the pot with the red lid, this contains a mix of Army Painter soft tone and some white spirit to thin it down. This allows me to paint the mixture onto the models faster with fewer globules.
Of course, once you have all the base colours down and have applied the dip with a brush it will dry with a high shine. Just needs a good dose of Matt varnish to finish the job.
