So I’m two coats in on my orcs test painting to see which route I’m going to take.
At this point in the game based black with green skin looks the best. but that’s because you can’t really see the wash on the other two yet and there is not strong contrast. I’m relatively sure the center option is out since it uses army green which really doesn’t suit orc skin. He’ll probably be simple greened tomorrow. or when I find my simple green jar one. :p
I picked up a destroyer lord top the other day. I’m thinking about not fitting it on a destroyer body but instead using a tomb kings skeleton horseman horse for the body. Just clip its head off and pop on the body. I just have to find a place to pick up a sprue instead of wasting $35 on the set.
I’d really hoped to have both the orcs and marines from our starter box cleaned and primed by week’s end but it looks like that’s not going to happen. I’ve been doing the orcs and max the marines but there’s just not enough resources being pumped into this.
I’m also testing a plethora of cross post programs at the same time. If all goes well I’ll be bothering Livejournal, Facebook, and Twitter with that oxford coma. 😀
