I’ve decided to go for old fashioned PVA and sand for the bases. I might see how contrast paints work on bases as it might save on time when it comes to painting. As you can see in the photo above I started to prime them using the wraithbone spray from GW in preparation for painting with contrast paints.

I love the throwing mastiffs that you can include in the units.I love the throwing mastiffs that you can include in the units.

Nearly built the whole starter army.Nearly built the whole starter army.

There’s a lot more to come. I found there was a missing part in my box of badger riders. When I contacted Mantic they said they would send it through straight away. What I didn’t expect to receive was a complete new kit. Amazing customer service and I’ve got a whole unit for free.

They're half the height but they still take just as long to build

I’ve always wanted to paint up a whole rank and file army. My FLGS had a 50% off KoW deal so I bought some stumpy chaps and I’m going to try a paint them all.

I’m planning to play around with the new contrast paints to get a decent look as quickly as possible.

They’re going to be based in the old fashioned WFB style so they can be used for other systems if needed.
