Painting 13-ish minis. Got the action pack and the alpha support. I really dig their color scheme,
Trying to get all of them done and will be learning how to cut time on things, as I do have a tendency of over-polishing stuff. Any tips on that welcome 🙂
Will post more as I go.

thanks! I'm figuring out if I should push the contrast on the gold to make it more gold-like (right now it's more satiny?) - especially in the upper body parts.
What are your thoughts, folks?

what's the `all out war`? Is it a local event?
Yes a server event so year long. It's wrapping up right now and there will be a new one.

There is also one to finish board games with monthly challenges and streaks #board-to-death-2

Looking real good. I agree some more shine in the areas you want to pull the focus will be good 🙂

That gold is harder to do quickly than I thought. Hopefully mulling over it 13 times will automate that

Well in this bubble doesn't look like any struggle or slowdown at all 😆
How did you prime these? Do you have any issues with flaking paint on edges? Still looking for a way to struggle less with these metal minis...

no, never - I also washed those with soap and water and scrubbed them with a toothbrush just in case. One time they chipped when it fell down, but only on the impact spot

If I may ask which Spraycan, airbrush, brush-on-primer? I used ak black brush on and struggle with it. Also tried it with an airbrush same issue.
Cleaned these all as well before. It's only edges and corners but still annoying

Having some tough time figuring out how the bases should look like. I was trying out a couple of things, but nothing seems adequate. Im also not used to toppers like these.
I guess some edge highlights will make it nicer, but not sure about the core idea of those bases
I like the idea of highlighted floor tho

Calling those done for now. I'll maybe come back and improve the faces, but they're good enough
And I guess now, looking at the picture, also the arms could be highlighted more

Some fixes for the gold and pinwashing are still needed

She's got a whole Borderlands vibe going on. Love it

I'm hearing it the second time - having borderlands vibe. Could you elaborate on what makes you think so?
Genuinely curious, maybe I can play with it a bit more

The punchy, vibrant colors, cell-shade aesthetic, and general "no fucks given" pose. check out Maya from Borderlands 2
