Airbrushing Blackstone Fortress - Pious Vorne

It's been a while. Got sucked into the TV.

Finally got around to starting Pious Vorne. I'm still working on getting black done. I do great with the highlights, but I haven't figured out the filter part. I tried using Contrast Black Templar but I have to get the right mix still I guess. It's good practise, as I have a Ulthwe Eldar army and a decent-sized Deathwatch army to do still.

I did the black, her head, and started the fire. I got too fancy and screwed it up, so really I did it twice tonight. I will update this with more when I get around to it.

Airbrushing Blackstone Fortress - Dahyak Grekh

Well, back to BSF!

I've been putting off painting the remaining 3 figs, as I have already painted the ones I'm playing the game with. This one seems really easy to paint so far. It's a start anyway.


A couple of days later... I think he's done. The finished product doesn't look as great in pictures as in real life... 'tis okay I suppose.

Assembling Marvel: Crisis Protocol

A new game!

Marvel: Crisis Protocol! Horrible name!

I'm really styked (stoked + psyched) because I was huge into Marvel comics in my younger years.

I have to say that these are some of the worst models and instructions I have ever come across! There are tiny multi-parts that are so unnecessary. For example, almost every model has a tiny little feature that you glue on (like the fur on Baron Zemo's coat)... why not just have it part of the main body? Once put together, they are nice models, but still....

I'm probably not going to paint these for a bit. I'm still painting Blackstone Fortress figs (3 to go). Then I am probably going to finish off the Stormtrooper units (Star Wars Legion) and then the Blitz Bowl models. Then I might give this a go.
