Undercoat Done.
As part of my learning to paint, I figured I’d try adapting the Army Painter approach of undercoating with the main colour and building on top of that. Which seems a perfect fit to try with a Red Team, Blue Team Colour Scheme, with the dark colour to serve as the base coat and then paint up the armour with the light colour.
Minis with the paints, dark first, light second.I then painted the base coat, painting by hand, and blu-tack securing them on craft sticks from The Works which has a neat little pack with dozens, if ever I want to build some planking terrain as an aside.
Undercoat applied, drying ready for next part.Getting Started
Getting some hobbying done, and despite procrastinating showing the basics can be done in a day.
Not a grand epic all encompasing pile of shame completed, but just enough finished up to get some gaming down without being embarrased by unpainted minis.
For a while, I’ve not done some hobbying, as I had it locked in my head I needed to clear my hobby room. Starting with the main table, then my painting station.
But what I reflected on it, all I need is my painting area clear. So that’s what I’ve now done, with the table all still cluttered, doesn’t matter my as hobby area is clear, and I can crack on.
