Edit: picture is sideways for some reason, not sure how to fix it.

    Looking good.

    From personal experience - don’t glue the whole Skitarii together until its painted. Helps get into all those little details cleanly.

    Nice work though

      But painting Battleline-Units in subassemblies is just pain 🥲

        Hey, it’s a little hard to tell in the photo, but what kind of color or feel are you going for on the robe? The picture unfortunately desaturates it a bit.

        Some black wash on the rebreather would help. I prefer painting metallics over black, but for speed washing black onto metal works great.

        When you’re doing troops, best thing is assembly line. Once you’re good at it, even a few fine detail paint flourishes on the models won’t slow down the work flow of a squad. I recommend double sided tape from a hardware store, and something to use as a painting handle. I get a lot of mileage out of Coca-Cola brand plastic bottle caps and large plastic juice caps. But anything you can get a lot of and that is roughly the right size will work. Using painting handles very much improves paintjobs, and using DIY ones is cheaper than buying a dozen Citadel brand handles.

    It looks like you caught a fly in a cup, didn’t know what to do next, so now the cup is permanent furniture.

    Your phone marks photos as rotated with a flag in the metadata. Lemmy strips the metadata off to avoid exposing things like location, which unfortunately also makes it forget how the photo should be rotated
