I have been slowly working on these pretty much every night since the last update, however, the highlights that I have been painstakingly doing are so minute I felt it wasn't even worth taking pics!
Here are the final pictures. We got a freak snowstorm, in October of all times, so I won't be able to put a matte varnish on it until the weather gets better, unfortunately. I'd like to put it in the case where it belongs!
With the 2 squads, I have the camo done on both and I have done all the shading on the forest scheme. The camo scheme was not looking good until the wash went on! Trust the process....
Second squad's base colours done! Going with more of an urban camo style with this group.
All the base colours for squad 1 are done (forest camo scheme).
I'm actually enjoying painting these so far. The detail isn't to a GW standard, but I'm a Star Wars nerd and I'm pretty happy with the models thus far.
Wow... it's been a long time since I painted. Truth be told, I did do some priming on other projects, but I ran into a snag as I've been waiting for the paint for this project to trickle into my mailbox.
I still don't have all the paints yet, but enough to get started. I am following Sorastro's guide and I'll be doing a forest camo theme for one squad and a city camo theme for the other.
I'm actually really excited to paint these... for now! Two squads at the same time though...
I did three levels of priming on these for an end-result zenithal highlight. I primed them black, did grey at 45°, then white from the very top. If I was doing a monochrome scheme only, I'd be tempted to keep it just like this!
