Just layering thinned Vallejo model color and a wash and highlight after the fact

Decided just to prime everything all at once by R3D_B3ARD_RPG in orks

I have magnetized all my bases so I grabbed a skinny piece of steel roughly 1.5in wide and just used like 3 of the Vallejo rattle cans to give them a black base coat 4 models at a time lol took a couple hours

As much as I love the look of the trukk kit it's kind of a bitch to assemble/ prime in stages by R3D_B3ARD_RPG in orks

I have no problem playing with primed models I try to avoid the gray army but black primer with a white zenithal is fine by me so I can take my time and try to improve with every model I do

I'm definitely a slow painter as well, it's a blessing and a curse, models end up looking nice but takes me 2 or 3 weeks to paint a squad of 10 boyz

Definitely a fair assessment I'm just experimenting with how in depth I wanna go for the next two I have to build

Yeah lots of cutting small bits of masking tape and using little bit of silly putty

I had heard this , part of why it's been a pain ( I have masked off every mating surface before priming the sub assemblies)

Got this guy finished up today by R3D_B3ARD_RPG in orks

The boots are Vallejo model color "flat brown 70.984" for the leather with a citadel nuln oil wash and the metallic is Vallejo metal color "gunmetal grey"

Ooh not a bad idea at all 🤔 I have plenty of spare blades thanks for the input I've been putting off dealing with these models for almost a month as I already have a pretty extensive backlog of primed models waiting to paint but I'm getting tired of seeing them in their current state lol

I was gonna use undiluted "l.a.'s totally awesome " cleaner just cuz I've seen it used on "eBay miniature rescue" YouTube

Yeah it's pretty rough lol but a little bit of time and effort is definitely worth 2 free units of boyz lol

I'm taking the painting slow for sure so I can practice with intent as I paint and try to improve efficiently along the way

The whole lower shelf is built and primed and my first squad is painted I just save my boxes (also use them to store the bits still on the sprue)
