Re: beencounters painting log

Painted a high elf again at long last! Ive actually done quite a bit more but Il save the finished cavalry bus update until its completely done. https://scontent-b-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/1502545_390917137756336_7286694164214448542_n.jpg?oh=5185b6bc70fc474ee802f4d16dfc1d70&oe=5565...

Re: beencounters painting log

Not much on the High elf front of late, but rest assured that will be changing very soon! Next update will feature 2 mounted mages and a finished 15 strong silverhelm bus with all the characters for a 20 strong unit. For now, here is my version of Fulgrim, very tricky model to paint, but rewarding. ...

Endtimes Magic - Successfully cast

This is killing our group right now, if you try to cast a spell, lets assume soul quench, meet the casting value but your opponent then dispels the attempt can you try to re-cast soul quench? I would assume this would be regarded as a failure to cast and is much the same as our lore attribute not tr...

Re: EOT Elven Army - Strategies & Combos

Yeah, Im considering 4 lvl1 light mage/sorceress in a cavbus. The problem im having with light council is that I cant find a good place to put them other than with a cavbus(cany cast once in combat) or with woodelf skirmishers.

Re: Monthly Painting Challenge - November

R.E Lee- No new model for Tyrion or Malekith, Tyrion is still on Malhindir and Malekith still on his dragon. I kind of wish there was a new mini, but I understand that Tyrion is the embodiment of Khaine and Malekith of Asuryan.

Re: beencounters painting log

you just use like 1 drop, its enough to change the flow of the paint. I thin it with water as normal then a wee bit of flow aid, usually just a brush load or two.

Re: beencounters painting log

Thanks guys! Nexs - a 00 brush and some flow aid medium with very little paint on the brush should see you good.
I'll also let you in on a secret, the back of the banner isn't done yet, hence no pics from that angle!

The bases are just the usual sand then worked in some static grass and tufts I found on ebay, they are a bit of a PITA to do but they lift the army as a whole and keep it cohesive.
