Nice plastics and resin to work with so far.

Can't wait

I have so many minis left to paint I'm embarassed to show them.

I know how you feel.

Looking forward to watching this progress Amboadine.

We all feel the same (some 300 models to paint!)

Regarding the cold ones could you paint 5 blue with red belly and 5 red with blue belly, (try saying that fast 3 times)

That would tie both units together but make them both different.

Your painting has improved loads from your first post, well done.

how open are you to the idea of having sails in an anchorage position, not wide open as when sailing? It could ease your torment. Im struggling along - I made the big sail and spent a few hours sewing the sail fabric to some of the beams, got to the last one the thicker of the beams and the damn th...

The shape looks good, I agree with direweasel about the oars.

I would make the tentacles magnitized as I don't think it needs anything like it, just some white water is enough.

To add weight could you not stick something inside the hull on the base you won't see.

I have a large army I'm looking to sell, some are painted but around 50% are not even assembled.

I can do you a full list if required.

The base you have shown will work perfectly, last thing the boat needs is a rectangular base it won't fit with the feel of the boat.

These are in the US

Yea, it will still do some damage, but dang. I thought that I had it. I thought that it was a killer synergy that was going to impress all my mates here and they were going to be like, "WWWWHHHHHAAAAATTTTT that was so cool." Now it's going to be. "Welp, time to charge some crossbow g...

It can only be his "league" rules that say you can't use named models. House rules= what the players decide is fair not a player. If there is something you feel unbalances the game in his/your favour voice your concerns. AOS rules has no restrictions on using named models so it must be a r...

They are lovely here is the set I painted,

Thanks Crowsfoot - this was from a few years back. Unfortunately the nationals was a whitewash, they put our states entries up late and we missed out on valuable voting time some dumb 40k thing one it. Alas it has been put away to bring out another day. Working on the ship for this years entry but ...

Not surprised you won gold, that board is stunning, will that be put in storage like the rest of your models?

Hope not it would be a shame.

Good luck in the nationals

You should enter it into the Golden Demon if you can a sure fire winner.

I'm going to have a bash at making one.

Maybe a rowing boat first

Would she work if you added your own sword and shield?

Have you seen these 3d prints and they were not expensive (around the same as GW)




So good quality is available but probably not to a mass market as yet.

Amazing work, hope (wishing) your providing a scale plan of every piece when finished

That is very impressive, I've just ordered some balsa wood!

I voted for the ship as this is something I have been looking into myself since my return.

Full tutorial with pics and step by step instructions please

Your terrain pieces look great, were do you display your AOP at your local store? Alas they have only come out on display on the day each year. Then I plastic wrap the board and store it. I box all my armies up and bring them out to play with now and then. Would be great to have a permanent display...

I set myself a project each year painting towards Armies on Parade (held in October). I try to paint at least 3000pts and spend a bit of time researching the army, units, acquiring the models, planning the terrain I will use etc. I then take a regimented approach painting each unit at a time. If it...

I'm very flirty with projects and have maybe 10/15 on the go at the same time which stops me getting bored but some models have been 50% complete for weeks maybe months. I do the same thing. Whenever I get "stuck" on a mini in some way - not sure what color to paint a bit, not sure if I l...

I usually do 5 at a time for rank and file models, I recently painted 40 Saurus warriors at once. All my models are primed with a colour that will suit the end result, i.e Saurus were primed blue this save loads of time rebase coating models. I usually miss detail out on rank and file and maybe spen...

It works on both.
