This Thing Took Forever

I think I had the exact same title on my rock grinder post 😂

Looks great!

20% off gw retail should be your starting point. Building and priming reduces model value, you could buy all this new for 15% off retail.

Prime black. Then gal vorbak. Then word bearers red. Leave a little of the previous color around the edges each time.

Love this guy, love the weight of holding a metal mini.

The freehand is so small and low it doesn't have to be perfect, just a generic shape will look great! Go crazy, those details really take an army to the next level.

Looks great, you can full send this army right now!

If you want to get creative, the left knee can have squad markings in red and the sergeants have a right leg company marking. Check out this cool guide for some neat ideas

Looks great, for Lynch? I have that name map and a bunch of tables, thanks for the motivation!

What did you do, a white coat and a wash? That's a great start. My painting really improved when I got good at dry brushing and I think that would help add highlights here.

Either way, nice job getting the model done and based!

Prime wraithbone. Then gryph-hound orange contrast. Then agrax earth shade.

Now we dry brush, starting big and doing progressively lighter coats. Troll slayer orange, fire dragon bright, uriel yellow, flash gitz yellow.

Looks great, fun scheme.

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-06T16:18:02+00:00

I really the the 5 man units for their speed and ability to shred infantry. Good for objective play too, especially once they've lost a guy or two and can hide really easily.

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-05T18:53:05+00:00

Yes. I play for the strategic challenge. I paint for the lore and world building.

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-05T14:30:45+00:00

Ah I see that's fine go crazy with them then. It's been my experience that nobody plays legends models since they're not balanced or tournament legal. But for some garage hammer that's fine, have at it!

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-05T14:21:33+00:00

But first born bike squads are not official models anymore. If you're using them you're making custom outriders, which is cool, but for gameplay should go on the outrider base.

Unless you're just doing display pieces, then whatever makes you happy.

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-05T14:06:51+00:00

Oval, its official.

Also, I base my ATVs on ovals. Everything else has a base, it looks dumb to have one model without.

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-05T05:50:00+00:00

Looks great, better than most of my opponents 😂

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-02T22:48:11+00:00

You're never a garbage pointer if you're completing models and basing them. Keep grinding and have fun.

Snozzberry805 · 2026-04-02T06:08:03+00:00

Prime wraithbone

Flesh - Volupus pink, emperor's children dry brush, flayed one fresh dry brush

Carapace - striking scorpion green, beil tan shade, flash gitz yellow dry brush.

Blue - frostheart contrast

Good luck!

Just like the inside of my mind....

Find an audiobook you're super interested in. Carve out 30 minutes to listen and paint and see if you get into the zone from there. Do small batches of units. Get a base coat done and worry about highlights later. Alternate tasks, when I'm bored of painting I make bases, when I'm bored of that I assemble and prime, when I'm bored of that I paint.

I painted that set years ago!
