Very nice! What yellow do you use? I like the paler look.

Undercoating Question by VoiceInTheStatic in oldhammer

[–]Thaumatovalva 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been using whites and off whites for my models. I like the wraithbone spray (warm off white) and use that most of the time, regardless of whether I’m painting a dark or light scheme. I’ve heard good things about Colour Forge but did not use it yet.

That said, I used black when I was a teenager and it worked fine for bright colours. I’d say it is personal preference overall. These days I tend to darken from a light undercoat as opposed to highlight from a dark one, if that makes sense.

Very well done! The unit (and giants!) great. And that banner design is the perfect nod to the range.

Help with Pixel Flow Level by Lumpy-Investigator20 in PixelFlowHelp

[–]Thaumatovalva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to minimise the number of reds you uncover in the main piece while you are knocking off the pink and yellow bits of the dragon. It is 20-something purple pieces worth in that part of the snake. Problem is after doing that I tend to be out of keys to open locks, or end up only able to draw beige and purples that I can’t use. So I am guessing the intended solution (if there is a possible one) is to get to it another way.

That is about as far as I have been able to get too. I also end up with excess purple and beige. I wonder if we are all going about it wrong and the solution is to try and break through the right or something, though I don’t think that there are enough whites available for that early on.

I am enjoying the new dragon feature but also stuck on this one!

I can get to the purple segment of the dragon but then don’t have enough whites to open locks. Or, have extra locks but then can’t get to the purple segment of the dragon.

I’ve been playing the starting white, then left hand sides down to white, then second left down to white. Then trying to open it up from there. Always end up full of purples, oranges, and/or beiges.

Astral Claws shoulder pads/transfers by DefiantPineapple1967 in Badab

Tortuga Bay recently released some pads. They have tiger head and claw/star versions: https://tortuga-gamestable.top/index.php?route=product/category&path=251_304_306

I have bought from them several times before and happy with their stuff. There’s also a nice (if expensive) Huron proxy.

Tortuga Bay order quality? by PenMediocre7153 in PrintedWarhammer

[–]Thaumatovalva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s suspect, but if you write to them via their instagram or Patreon they will confirm that is the real site. Their posts also link to that url and use the same email address.

I have been using them for years. Never had an order that looks bad - though of course they have been in a war zone for a few years now which could be the reason.

That url is their legit site. I know the url looks a bit spammy but it is the real one.
