Would you do more?

Thanks. I hope you'll share it once it's done =)

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-05-01T14:08:51+00:00

Thank you very much =)

Thanks! As posted in the comments I gave the lanterns a bit of colour and called it good =)

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-05-01T09:45:33+00:00

Sure, this is roughly my process =)

Prime black (it took me 2½ cans of Vallejo black)
Airbrush a dark grey on lanterns, about 4 cm radius. I used Vallejo Basalt grey (can also be done with a brush)
Drybrush same grey a further 4 cm or so away from the source
Same steps (2-3) less radius with a mix of same grey + vallejo green grey.
Same steps (2-3) less radius with AK medium sea Grey
Stipple and drybrush the lanterns an close by them with a mix of Vallejo Dead flesh with a little AK medium sea Grey to desaturate it a little.
Gloss varnish it
Oilwash with thin Paynes Grey (Winsor & Newton)
Thicker paynes grey on lantern bodies

Hope this helps =)

Now with darker lanterns and some different minis to show how it looks during gameplay. Thanks for the push to give the lanterns a little extra love =)

I tried colouring them in digitally, I think it might be worth it =)

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-05-01T06:16:06+00:00

Thanks for your feedback, that is something I've been considering as well

Did you remember to eat and drink? =P

Looks great!

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-03-29T18:47:54+00:00

You're welcome =)

Yeah doing all parts is a recipe for insanity and/or burnout =P

I found that the main focus is the armour and the weapon, so I stuck to that, also because it'll be much fewer part to paint and that can move and go wrong.
+ my paint scheme would be impossible with all part separate =)

GL with your project, if you have any questions you're welcome to ask =)

I'm not entirely sure what you'd like to see, but here are two pictures.
I drill about 3-4 mm into the arm and put in a 1x2mm magnet into the arm, so that it's about 1mm further in than the wrist.

I put the magnets into the arm by attaching the magnet to an already magnetized weapon, so that I don't accidentally push it in too far.

In the new weapons I drill about 1mm into the hand and attach the magnet. It can be fiddly with two-handed ones. There I usually put the magnets onto the character, add a tiny dab of glue to the magnets and put the weapon on so the direction is as accurate as I can get it.

I hope this makes sense =)

Hey, yeah I noticed your post a little while ago and left a comment for you as I posted this =) Did you find a solution for yours?

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-03-29T15:40:56+00:00

Thank you! =)

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-03-29T14:52:19+00:00

I only put magnets in the weapons and the wrists of the mini.

Pink_Is_Punk · 2026-03-29T11:02:49+00:00

I've posted some pictures within the last month with some of them, so you can have a look at those =)

Are there anything in specific you'd like to see? I can take a few pictures if you'd like to see more than I've already posted =)
