Again,
The reason behind block painting those Marians is because...I've turned to the dark side!
Well, sort of. 28mm Mantic KOW Skellies, block painted so as to be dipped...
Hence the Marians. I want to do the same to them.
It all started a couple of years ago, when I picked up some cheap Mantic Skellies at a DBA/X Wing event. And, since then, when discounts and spare cash allowed, I've been slowly collecting enough plastic for small Kings Of War army.
All based one less abreast per line than recommended, to spread the love, so to speak.
Or rather, to spread the cost.
I also bought into the Kings of War 2nd Edition Kickstarter as part of 2014's Christmas gift from my wife. Which finally arrived in December 2015, 12 months later...
...repete with a dude riding a dinosaur...and a bag piper!
This dipping stuff better work!
Nick
Super cool mate!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing this project progress :-)
Thanks John. Won't be a patch on your work, but, well...
ReplyDeleteI hope this dip stuff will get decent results for minimal effort! Even though the bone spray undercoat was very quick and effective, I was surprised at how long block painting the rest took.
Cool, so is that tinned dip the same as the bottle stuff from Army Painter did you find out?
ReplyDeleteI don't think so. The small (waterbased) pottles are completely compatible with the tinned stuff, but, as near as I can figure, are more of a wash - the other stuff is an enamel/spirit based wash and varnish.
DeleteAh ok cheers.
