BASES!!!

Well I finally got the motivation to get my bases done. 100 odd in one batch. I managed to get the scheme looking the same as the last batch I did too, so pretty happy.

I still have 1 lot of bases to go, as they haven't arrived yet.

The models and bases are a bit on the glossy side as the next step is transfers and weathering.

Grot bases

Paul demanded I put up more shots of my Grots and their broken plascrete bases.
So like umm, here they are.  Unfortunately the S6 is not at home so the photos are with my shitty old phone.

Watch out for Klanky!

Drop the base!

This is my third or fourth attempt at getting what I would hope is a reasonable sandstone looking base and I like where this one is now heading. In the future, once I get my Thousand Sons paint scheme is that this will be the base scheme for them.  I figured Thousand Sons, Egyptian, Desert, Not sand, and this is the result.

At this point it is four different layers of paint & drybrush.  I am unsure if I should go to the last level and do a white brush on top.  They will have small amounts of weedy looking tufts added as well.

Sandstone

I did the top layer of drybrushing during my lunch break at work today.  Amazing what you can get done if you are bored at work.

Army So Far

Here are some pictures of what I have painted so far. This leaves me a total of 3 Jetbikes and a Farseer to paint although I did see a nice conversion using some high elf legs and Dire avenger spare parts for warlocks that I may have a try at as well. The Wraithguard and the War Walker are on the Slave to painting Alien Temple Bases. I have 10 of the small bases to paint up and will throw those on the guardians. They're a bit pricey, but bases are always my weak points, and I think sticking to the theme will help unify the army even more.
