Something Different...

I really fancied painting something different today so broke out a couple of figures from Pig Iron Productions.

These are the test models so I can see what works and pick colours.

Rather than spend hours trying to come up with a colour scheme, I went on Pinterest and scrolled through some designs.

After finding one I liked I set to work matching up paints to the image. Working from your phone is a pain as the image keeps closing.

I think these figures are a little different to what I would normally turn out so the reference trick worked. They seem more colourful and adventurous. Pinterest is a great source of inspiration, especially for sci-fi matters.

 These have had a glossy coat of Kleer floor varnish, so will be Matt varnished tomorrow. There are a few things I will do differently on the next batch that will really simplify the process.

Update: I have a go at getting the camouflage closet to the image.

Update: The rest of the squad fall in complete with heavy weapon.

They are a breeze now the colour scheme has been worked out.
