Ground Forces / Emily Bot (RetrokiT)

I've just finished to paint the last figure edited by RetrokiT : Emily Bot ; some steampunk female robot.

I've used AK 3G metalic paints only. No light added : as the paint is metalic, reflexion of the light is automatic  :))

Well, I've few time to spend for the hobby actually, but my Mossie is still in progress.

Nexte phase : some putty to sand...

After that, with a sponge, rust on some locations and finally Agrax Earthshade applied overall.

As previously said, the final result is eye-catching and good enough for play

All the colors used are AK 3G acrylics, with the use of Citadel Colors Nuln Oil & Agrax Earthshade.

The step two consisted in a drybrush of gold on some surfaces. No need to be careful...

I've found on Youtube some videos about the use of acrylic paints for tabletop games figures.
One of those videos describes a "speed painting" technique that is useful to quickly paint accessories to place on the tabletop. No need to have a "gold medal & Best of show paint" in such a case ; the goal is to have a tabletop battlefield that is eye-catchning.

I've tried that technique. All the different phases give an unpleasant result; but surprisingly the final result is... elegant!!!

So, here is the description of the process.

First step : a base coat of black color

Ground Forces / A new horse

Well, I'm a great reader of books (novels, SF, fantasy, thrillers...). Each year I'm going to the "Salon du Livre de Wallonie" where I can meet authors and obtain dedicated books. One of my favourite authors is miss Reynders; she writes books of fantasy but also some thrillers. She and her husband are very sympathic. Their daughter is a young champion of France of horse jumping.

I've found photos of her horse and I've painted the head of that horse, that I will offer to miss Reynders during the next "salon", in november...

Some progress after a period without having worked regularly on the kit...

Examining the comic book, I've seen that the 4 ventral guns were not in use in the Khemed Air Force. Some putty was needed...
