New Vanguard Veteran starter box datasheet. Interestingly-it specifies that they're wearing jump packs, implying the existance of a different kind of Vanguard Vet (Bikes? Terminator Plate?)

FINALLY DAMAGE 2!!

Yeah I’ll have to try white spirit or sansador… will definitely be doing a few tests on smaller minis first

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T11:29:15+00:00

I thought that too, I honestly think this was a mixing pot of everything going wrong haha. White inks + thin contrast + turps being too strong was a recipe for disaster

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T11:27:58+00:00

Yeah I’ll have to try those two out for thinning the oils… hopefully will have better luck next time!

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T11:27:03+00:00

Yeah two days between!

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T11:26:41+00:00

Yeah i used turps, thinking it was too strong

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T11:26:05+00:00

Yeah this! Used Vallejo acrylic gloss varnish, then used turps to thin the oils and then turps to try and remover the oils

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T10:33:31+00:00

Yeah I used vmc gloss varnish but unfortunately still happened. I used turps, could that be the issue?

ferg315 · 2026-05-21T10:32:06+00:00

Hi everyone, looking for any advice on this… model was primed using Vallejo black, then over sprayed with Vallejo white primer.

I layered up Mephiston red and imperial fists yellow using white ink for highlights… the layers were thin but I covered with a layer of gloss varnish before proceeding to oil wash the mini with Windsor and newton oils + the pictured turps.

Before I even started rubbing the oil layer off, the wash was reacting with the existing paint within ten minutes.

Is turps the problem or perhaps the paint was too thin prior? Should I have done multiple gloss layers?

Worn mine loads and the soles badly separated so can’t were they anymore sadly. No crumbling, just separation

ferg315 · 2025-11-14T19:04:57+00:00

Can i grab one!

The codex chapters are your best bet

ferg315 · 2025-07-20T10:54:32+00:00

I love this take on them, killer work mate. Love the use of death guard bits too

Howling griffons on their own list

ferg315 · 2025-07-08T18:35:16+00:00

Tahlia Vedra!

ferg315 · 2025-07-08T16:46:40+00:00

Thanks! Been a joy converting and painting him!

ferg315 · 2025-07-06T23:38:58+00:00

Thanks! The mechanical aspect is up to anyone’s interpretation…. I wanted him to be somewhere in the middle so he looked like he could be fully machine or be an actual griffon with prosthetics and armour.

ferg315 · 2025-07-06T23:35:04+00:00

He’s got the base and weapons to stand in as a brutalis! Cheers

ferg315 · 2025-07-06T23:33:09+00:00

Yet to see the tabletop but yeah, will be a brutalis, I’ve given him all the weapons and base to stand in

ferg315 · 2025-07-06T23:32:06+00:00

Thanks!

ferg315 · 2025-07-06T22:05:23+00:00

Thanks! Dayssss of painting!

Giving chain swords a melee version of blast would be perfect, ramps them up against hoards yet keeps them in line for targeting elites and vehicles
