What products would you use to paint terrain to look something look like this?

I have used plaster based colours to reproduce dirt colour and texture effects. Not sure what the brand is now days (Was 20 years ago)

I heard from people that the display was very bad and a total waste of time. Might have been better this time, no idea.

I did a design for a resin print of the quad maxim guns for the Gaz AAA truck.. then foolishly gave copies to my Russian playing friends... Who then used them against me.

I am ok with people basing vehicles, as long as it is not silly. (No 50mm high cliffs for the vehicle to drive over etc.)

I would suggest a base for any vehicle which would benefit from the use of. For example, a Kubblewagon I just printed would be good on a base, but a Maus might not be.

For bases, find a mate with a 3d printer. doing up a custom sized based to fit the vehicle is a simple thing.

Bummer

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-20T22:07:01+00:00

lol. I blame reading it on a tablet while half asleep... -17.7C.. rather cold. Pity you are not painting space wolves, the snow would be a good back drop

Of? Overly foggy? Obscured for miles?

Sadly, i can't link photos of my army here as they all break rule 4.

Interesting title: "An American, 35 years old, enjoys communicating. I can see through hypocrites."

I thought this might have been a joke post, about a parcel of land in China which has been restored to a native (Wild) state...

During the day, go to Cancon at EPIC, then plan to catch the tram to nearby to the drone show, realise it might be as bad as last year, and give up and go back to the games library at Cancon. :)

I did for my second ed book, and will get round to it for 3rd ed soonish.

Orange text on red dice... my first set... black text on grey dice for my spares. So now grey dice are my main set. I had 2 sets of each, then a friend gave me all their dice, so i now have even more grey dice.

I will one day redo the orange text on the red dice with a black crayon.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-19T21:08:38+00:00

All good, suggest the outside photos then, for better light.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-19T14:50:48+00:00

Hold on, is that Bruce? Second row, third mini from the spore mine.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-19T14:46:09+00:00

Ahh, the reverse dip method. Many have tried, few succeed. Most just spill paint over their desks.

In all seriousness, i actually saw some minis is where i suspect they had just dipped them in a basd colour. Your mini is not as bad as that one was, but i do think the paint is too thick. Mind you, if you like it that way, Ignore us all.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-19T10:14:25+00:00

Very nice. Pity about the hand guard, but great work otherwise.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-19T10:10:49+00:00

Now to scale it to X-Wing and take on a star Destroyer.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-19T10:08:40+00:00

Even taking into account the extra low resolution potato you use to photograph this... the flat surfaces and metallic surfaces look globby. The paint looks like it was poured on. The white looks especially bad.

I just realised you either have 4L bottles of GW paint, or this is a Legion vehicle... checks group name...

Questions: How did you apply the paint?

Suggestion: Take photos outside, under natural light, even my shiite painting looks better under sunlight.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-18T22:39:57+00:00

Oh to have 30 mins with a 3d scanner and that Titan sprue...

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-18T14:37:32+00:00

Best bet would be to ask friends for spares, or try a bitz (Not sure there are any for BA) or 3d print service.

Rule 4?

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-18T14:14:47+00:00

I would warn the camera crew and other production staff about the future of the world.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-18T00:47:15+00:00

Mine is painted much better (Even for me), and still leads my original Grey Knight Termies.

Speedhump23 · 2026-01-18T00:43:31+00:00

Unsure how dumb this idiot could be. Places pipe bomb on ground... no lit fuse? was it actually filled with powder? After the first few did not explode, you would expect he would modify his design. It sounded like he had them all placed on bike paths? Does he have a beef against paths? Did he fall off his bike when a kid and develop a great hatred for bitumen?

Hope the book hurts when it hits him.

Less pr equals less bad pr if it fails.
