I never liked green sides of bases. Brown are acceptable, and black are my favorites.

Well as i've been a bit quiet lately due to work and the national holiday here in the UAE, i have been busy painting still

and i've managed a few more models for both my blood ravens and my world eaters. I've given up on decent photos for now until i can get home and take decent ones with my set up at home.

some scouts, 1 chaplain, 1 apothecary and 2 dreadnoughts left to go to finish this tale. I might achieve it this year as i only have until 7th December to be back in the UK, but i will take my minis back home with me and see how much i can finish. Still as tabletop minis im pretty happy with them, basic paint jobs which are generally speaking fairly neat.

Well done - I really like the swords

Although green bases are just bad...

Good job, I like them! I also think that the swords just rock

it's not about basing skills, it's about changing old habits from days when GW had those green bases all around

cool to see at least one tale progressing

Well i've still not gotten around to repainting the base rims yet but i'll do that when i go back home to the UK tomorrow

^^ but I've not quite achieved the end of my tale yet with 4 models still to paint

. 2 dreadnoughts, 1 chaplain and an apothecary still to paint. Not taking the dreads home to the UK with me as i've ran out of room to put them in my bag lol, so i'll finish them next year

but I might add a bit more to this tale as i want to get some sanguinary guard and paint some gold nmm to practice that. But i have finished my unit of scouts to a decent table top standard.

I love the old metal scouts as much as I love NMM on those guns and knives. But come on, green bases?
