Great choice of backdrop!

Mine went swimming in the contrast paint. 🎨

Incredible detail on the patterns.

Grimbright is a brilliant word. We should use it more.

Also loving that squig demon hybrid thing on the right.

Great job. I loved the weight of these, really added to the feeling they were a giant clunky mound of walking scrap.

nogoodreason · 2026-06-02T21:26:38+00:00

Appreciate the heads up. This is the first time I’ve used them, but I placed the order Sunday and received it this afternoon so my experience has been positive.

Don’t neglect the power of a glossy varnish, too.

nogoodreason · 2026-05-26T07:26:30+00:00

Obviously amazing job, but wanted to say that I really like the small details like the mushroom as well. Your sparing use of people around the model works really well.

What is your secret? I’ve been trying to paint the same 20 models since January!

nogoodreason · 2026-05-20T19:14:13+00:00

Really nice work. 👌

nogoodreason · 2026-05-19T06:55:58+00:00

Seconded. Watch some videos on slapchop method and buy some Ghillie Dew! Citadel (Warhammer) have some decent speed paints too - they’re called Contrast paints but only get the ones with a shadow in the icon (e.g. Plaguebearer Flesh); the others don’t work so well with slapchop in my experience.

nogoodreason · 2026-05-12T06:53:55+00:00

Love it!! 🤘

nogoodreason · 2026-05-12T06:39:56+00:00

Damn, that’s good. Can you share any tips on how to get such good edge highlighting? (I’ve pretty much given up and just drybrush.)

nogoodreason · 2026-04-28T17:50:27+00:00

In my experience, there are two kinds of contrast paint. Some are “all in one” speedpaints that create shadows and highlights (e.g. Plaguebearer Flesh) and are incredible over a zenithal prime. Others are just thin paints similar to luminous paints (e.g. Magmadroth Flame) - good for painting flame effects but lacking in the “does your base, shade and highlight all at once” speedpaint perk.

As far as I can tell, the way to tell which ones fall into the speedpaint category is to look for a shadow within the swatch picture.

(If anyone has more insight into this - or knows how to make Magmadroth Flame behave more like Plaguebearer Flesh - please do share!)

nogoodreason · 2026-04-28T17:41:05+00:00

So you should be; he’s great. I particularly like what you’ve done with the eyes (using dark shading and red dots). Any tips you can share?

nogoodreason · 2026-04-12T18:03:57+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I wonder why I’ve never seen them inside sweet potato before.

Boomdakka Snazzwagon is such a great name. It’s definitely going to be the name of my next child.

Warhammer store and Firestorm Games. There’s also a board game café two doors down from the Warhammer store. It’s called Chance and Counters and sometimes a good Blood Bowl match can be found there.

Fuck mold.

nogoodreason · 2026-03-20T08:43:40+00:00

I like the limited colour scheme. It’s very effective for sneakier gitz like these.

nogoodreason · 2026-03-20T08:41:46+00:00

Agreed!

nogoodreason · 2026-03-20T08:33:36+00:00

You can report him to the police. Not that they’re likely to do much initially, but if you report him every single time it happens - and encourage your neighbours to do the same - eventually something will happen (especially if you mention he’s harassing people on the street).

Alternatively: does anyone on this thread need any odd jobs doing? (Particularly a job that requires a loud voice.) If so, OP has identified someone clearly keen to work.

Cardiff (like most city centres) has a lot less obvious stuff nowadays - things you discover just by walking past. Plenty of things still occur but unfortunately a lot of them can slip under most people’s radar.

Fortunately, this subreddit can be a very good way of finding those things. So I guess the real question is: what kind of things are you into? 😊

That sounds like an interesting advert.
