Paint Challenge

A call went out by a few friends a month or two ago for a paint challenge. As this coincided with my desire to quit playing WOW, it was the perfect way to get painting again. Although I have not been as productive, I am happy to be finishing things which have sat for so long. These are commission paints.

I forgot how much of a pain painting whole units non-dip style is. This army was my first attempt at snow basing, meant to look more like trampled muddy battleground or spring thaw in the dwarven mountains. Im not real pleased with the outcome, but hopefully have learned a bit from it.

Terminators, Terminators and more Terminators. A simple, yet effective techinque, the basecoat is spraypaint, dipped to highlight and then a palette of less than probably 10 colors for various details of each model. When all is said and done he will have about 3/4 of the First company, and a badass army for Apocalypse games.
