Terrain - Battlefield Accessories Set

Thanks to some bits that were given to me, I've finally decided to put my four sets of accessories to good use, adding some colours and visual treats to the table. I gotta say, nothing beats Imperial Guard bits!

Hobby Progress Challenge - August Completed

Predator (100)
- Heavy Bolters Sponsons.

That completes my challenge but my Flesh Tearers aren't done yet. I still have decals and basing to do and some free hand banner work (I'm not looking forward to that).

I had issues with airbrushing my vehicles and getting the colour to match with the airbrush which as you can see isn't perfect on the land raider vs the predators. It's been a pain to get the flesh tearers colours scheme with the new paint range.

Hobby Progress Challenge - August Commitment

Since all that's left are vehicles, I'll airbrush the lot of them at the same time.

Brother Vinni's "Sandlot" miniatures - Assembly

I've assemble them and I gotta say the assembly process is pretty similar to assembling Finecast except I really felt like I had to pin almost everything, especially the arms. Not a big deal and really half the issues I had might have been related to how old my super glue was.

I recommend washing before assembly to be sure to remove any casting agents and get a clean basecoat later on.

I've provided some reference to help emphasis how compatible those miniatures are with standard heroic 28mm scale terrain. If Brother Vinni's would offer more posable options and weapons, I'd think they would do great count-as for Imperial Guard storm troopers or inquisitorial henchmen's.

Hobby Progress Challenge - June Completed

I've struggled with the red on those two, I can't say I'm fully happy with the result. The khorne red was applyed with the airbrush but the color was too bright thus my need to wash. I might have needed to use more dish soap to break the surface tension a little more. I'll need to figure out a mix of khorne red and some brown to pull off a true dark red on the august commitments.
