Painting Manhood restored - Old Dwarf - 05-25-2016 03:58 PM Last Summer I spray base coated BattleLore2 Base Game & 2 Expansion figs. It was a disaster the spray dried fuzzy I tried to clean them up but no dice, I tried painting anyway and had to stop it looked terrible. Totally spooked I haven't tried again (I guess the problem was too much humidity as I never had a problem with spray base coating before). I purchased Zombicide Black Plague & it's Wulfsburg Expansion and really wanted to paint them up but then again I didn't want to ruin them. I did buy some Army Painter Necroflesh Primer just in case I got up the nerve. Today my wife went down to the Casino so my garage was freed up and I check the Humidity was 55% so I went for it. The Zombie figs got the Necroflesh and the Survivors & wulfz got some black satin primer. It worked out the primers took perfectly, so it looks Like a Summer Painting project can get underway. Hopefully I can make some progress before more BP Expansions hit retail and add to my backlog (I didn't back the KS). OD RE: Painting Manhood restored - Anim8r - 05-26-2016 04:15 AM Awesome! I can't wait to see the finished products! RE: Painting Manhood restored - mqstout - 05-26-2016 02:29 PM *doesn't read post* You painted your manhood?!??

I really need to get some of this free time I keep hearing about. Ever since marriage and a few kids it seems to have evaporated... I miss it though and I keep buying more figures. RE: Painting Manhood restored - Old Dwarf - 07-14-2016 03:41 PM Back in the saddle again I've been picking up bits & pieces of Zombicide Black Plague on e-bay & have now got what I wanted from the first releases. As mentioned I was able to finally over my Battlelore2 base coating massive screw up & get the BP figs base coated. I did however notice that the black primer I used was a gloss so I've been worried that it might take light paint very well. But as I used it for my first batch of heroes I decided to stick with it and use it for the figs I got on ebay. So today I bit the bullet and tried some flesh paint out on a few of the hero figs. Happily it took so I finally ready to get back to painting after a year. OD RE: Painting Manhood restored - mqstout - 07-18-2016 08:57 PM Want to come to my place? I want to paint... But do you want to wash, desprue/clean and glue all my models? Some look like they're going to need to be puttied even. I have full sets of Bones and Bones 2, Dungeon Saga, two 1000-point armies for Kings of War [half desprued!]... And that's excluding board games. And Bones 3 in a couple months... And you mention a problem with prime. I hate priming! I just want to *paint* even though I suck at it. RE: Painting Manhood restored - Old Dwarf - 11-18-2016 02:18 PM Progress after much inaction I finally started painting! I started with 6 Zombicide Black Plague Necromancers & just finished them up. I was very pleased with the results as the previously Battlore2 screw up left me rather negative about painting. So here's what I have left: (Note I'm using a Midnight RPG as the Theme hence the Survivor racial types. Legates (Necromancers)-6=DONE Dorns (Survivors)-7 Elves (Survivors)-4 Dwarves (Survivors)-4 Saracosans-(Survivors)-18 Bishops-(Special Zombies)-3 Walkers-(Zombies)-35 Runners -(Zombies)-14 Fatties--(Zombies)-14 Abomination-(Zombies) 1 Wolfz-21 Crowz-21 NPC #1 -(Zombies)-20 NPC #2-(Zombies)-20 Deadeye Walkers-(Zombies)-20 Specials- Black Currant/Snow White (Oruk/Duke's Mistress) OD RE: Painting Manhood restored - samuraitrev - 11-18-2016 06:43 PM Not much then! At my painting rate they should be done by about 2117! RE: Painting Manhood restored - Old Dwarf - 12-24-2016 05:41 PM So I'm 132 figs painted on the Zombicide Black Plague Project and I still have all the Core Game Runners & Walkers + 12 NPC to do. Sam I'm on a roll so 2017 by the end of January should do it UNLESS I fall into the dreaded Painting Slump & in that case the figs will set there on my painting desk for months. I really enjoy painting & I hope to go on to paint up my Gears of War figs that have been base coated for 3 years & glare at me from the shelves as I'm working on the Black plague figs. OD |
