PRETTY COOL! He is looking GREAT! Next picture... white background please? The colors are great and I don't want to miss anything (background is 'busy'). THANKS FOR SHARING!

If I must share my secret........

Checkers are probably one of the hardest things to paint correctly. Fortunately for you guys I found a way that makes it simple.

First paint the entire area you want checkered the base color of your choosing.

After that, take a pencil and sketch in the checkers. This allows you to erase any mistakes and get the checkers just right.

When you get your sketch completed, then you fill in the checkers with this. These are micro pens that use an archival ink (won't fad, bleed or smear) that allows you to have a very direct control over ink placement. They come in a variety of colors as well as different tip sizes.

After coloring in the checkers you can erase any pencil marks....and there is nice clean checkers!!!

cheers dozer do u think it will work if i use something equivilent to those pens ?

Possibly, I do not know how well it will hold up though. The important part is the ink (archival quality), otherwise you might get some smear or it won't go on the model at all.

well my mother is a crafter and that have to use pens tht no matter what u do they dont smear/smudge/run
great tip would have never thought of tht

Mathias - good work on the marine (the backpack looks particularly good).

Way of the Warrior - nice base, the harlequin looks like he's just shredded half a squad! (I've almost finished Grimnar's base - just got to add the snow and water effects)

Laney (my prisoner is now basecoated )

Really cool models guys.
Now I don't feel bad about making one of the BIG dudes.


Still W.I.P:

AND! I've added a small conversion to the bolter

mudboy!!! Dude... make 'em BUNNY SLIPPERS!!!

hahaha that would be fantastic! XD

Nice work on the eldar and ogryn models!!!

I swear mudboy... if you don't put Bunny Slippers on that Renegade Ogryn, I WILL be going to Denmark and steal your Hellhammer!!!

I'm actually tempted to do it

YEAY!

=

I can't believe I am actually sitting here making GS bunny slippers on an Ogre... What has the world come too

hahaha Mudboy! I love you! =D

That would be the best Renegade Ogryn EVER!!! Make sure that when you paint them, they are clean! The Ogryn dirty and bloody and what not... but in his dementia, he has OCD and HAS to have his 'bunnies clean'! HA! So cool!!!!
