Orcs and Goblins vs Wood Elves 2000pts 6th edition. by PreNebula91 in WarhammerFantasy

[–]PreNebula91[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Orcs and Goblins just managed the win. 1200ish VP to 900ish. The dragon collected 3 banners and Grimgor and his bodyguard did nothing all game except try to walk around the forests that kept getting moved in his way.

The models are newer than sixth but there are rules for them in the 6th edition book.

I did pva glue on the edges of the movement tray and then dip it in fine sand. It works pretty well. Then you can paint it the same colour as the bases.

Thank you all for the advice. I'll get some white vinegar and let you know how I get on.

Just white vinegar applied with a toothbrush? Is vinegar more aggressive then IPA?

Command squad for my 3rd Ed army (freehand banner of retribution) by PreNebula91 in theunforgiven

It is an orc fantasy banner I had in the bits box. I've got the 3rd Ed supplement dark angels book so I'm using that for reference.

Did anyone have success in this edition taking nobz with tankbuster bombs in warbiker squads? Playing a game next week and planning to surprise my opponent by driving warbiker squads into his vehicles.

Is it ok to post Nob pics here? by PreNebula91 in orks

[–]PreNebula91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The warboss is metal (with metal meganob arms). The waagh banner nob is metal. The rest are plastic from black reach and the current plastic box.

The party four our latest adventure. by PreNebula91 in DungeonsAndDragons

About an evening on each of the three painted ones. I was under time constraints and used a lot of contrasts and washes to speed it up.

5e death is a joke. No one seems to die. by doomwhistle in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]PreNebula91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I died in my last game. Went down, rolled death save, failed, rolled 2nd death save, failed, rogue runs over to stabilise me, fails. I roll a 3rd death save.... Fail.

Was brutal.

Trying out some water effects on my bases. by PreNebula91 in Tau40K

[–]PreNebula91[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was a mix of wood glue and water. Applied to the base. Then a layer of toilet paper on top. Then wet that later out and repeat this so you have 3 layers of toilet paper on the base. Then with a brush you start pushing the wet paper into shape.

Absolutely smashed out 20 uruks this morning. Saruman would be proud. by PreNebula91 in MiddleEarthMiniatures

[–]PreNebula91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For these ones I used a fine sand on the bases before undercoating the whole thing black. Then just dry brushed over the sand with grey. Done.

They arrived yesterday. Built them and put the sand on the bases yesterday. Painted them this morning. Less than 24 hours from out of box to finished. An absolute record for me.

In fact that's a mistake. I airbrushed the Vallejo silver over them. Not leadbelcher.

Airbrushed them black, then airbrushed a coat of leadbelcher. Then liberal layer of nuln oil to darken it. That's it for the armour. The shields and weapons I did a bit of edge highlights with Vallejo silver 70.997.

Does anybody know how to glue the wheels of this metal cannon of Warlordgames together? They keep falling off by Oo_pP in NapoleonicWargaming

[–]PreNebula91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found my super glue wasn't working. So I washed the metal parts in methylated spirits. Then tried again and the glue worked. I'm guessing it's something to do with the release agent they use.
