I knew it was bound to happen. I graduate college, start in
on a huge backlog of projects both game-related and no, start a rhythm of
painting, prioritizing and sorting what the hell needs to be built. I kept wondering
if I would let myself be drawn into some painting and playing that had nothing
to do with the work I most lamented not doing because of life (eg. Strange
Aeons).
So now I’m in a Warmachine campaign. I already planned a
Fall of Strange Aeons but instead I’m dragging out all the Khador I neglected
to paint in Mk i.
Campaign starts in October, and we have a meeting tomorrow night to
run out our charter, ways and means, that sort of thing. Between us we have a
ton of terrain so the pics on Sarcophagi should look pretty good around
Halloween.
So, stay tuned as I dust off my old red paint mix batches…
which are all dried out. And GW changed their color formulas… great.

You swing a very nice brush!!!
Which brand of paints are you using and which colours?
Happy Gaming,
Allan
Thanks Allan! With these it was predominantly Games Workshop. I made 4 mixes of red for the layers which worked well. Looks like I'll be remixing them. The greys were Vallejo and the green-greys were a latex house paint I custom made (I used to work in a paint factory). Flesh colors were standard GW plus some blue wash made with flow enhancer. All golds were GW brown built up with GW golds and then brown washes for reflections.
Great looking figures, I do like your colors!
Thanks Phil!
