https://youtu.be/Lz6izRYivf0?si=YiSZnPdbQsE4aR0B New video is on YouTube. This week I show how to paint camouflage patterns onto minis. Ideal for making your snipers disappear on the tabletop.
Since the Sisters of Battle units I have are plastic, I don't particularly need a file (as I would for pewter). But a hobby knife of some sort for scraping mold lines and correcting things is helpful.
Most hobby knives are basically Exact-O knives. But doing some research, I hit upon a top from another hobbyist. Surgical Blades! They are just as sharp and useful as an Exact-O blade except I was able to get 100 of them for about as much as one Exact-O Knife!

I will need something to hold on to my units as I prime, base, and paint them. Up to now I had been using old, empty medication bottles, since I have so many (thank you anxiety and depression!).
But going forward, especially when I want to do some pinning to paint things by themselves I decided to go for cork. To do this I simple got some wine corks.

For some of my assembly I will be doing a tiny bit of pinning. I'm not entirely certain if I will pin pieces together, but I do know I will be painting faces before they are attached to armor. And in that scenario, pinning will be used.
I acquired a Craft911 Precision Pin Vice. This is completely manual and comes with exceptionally tiny drill bits. I am using a 0.8mm bit for this unit.

Most of the Sisters of Battle units that I have are plastic. Therefore, the glue that I will be using is plastic cement. In this case, I am using Tamiya Extra Thin Cement. I'm sure other types would work just as well, but after a little bit of researching, this is what I determined will work for me.

This will be my thread for tools. #Warhammer40k #SistersOfBattle
Today’s painting was a plague marine champion and a night goblin champion with a bow
Sure I lost the first round of the Crusade, but this one Stealth Suit probably needed to requisition clean armor after surviving a close encounter of the Immolator kind.
I had a great time, and am excited to go back for more abuse. Obviously #adeptaSororitas was the right army for me.
Raider gunship.
Heavily modified Dark Eldar Raider for my personal army/collection.
The aim was to turn this into more of an attack helicopter gunship-like craft.
Additions include:
Adding an old-school Raider front end to a new body.
A more "science-y" power supply.
Wings for additional weapons.
and a crew of a goblin, Tyranid ripper and Space Wolf marine.
Rough and ready paint job compared to a commission, but they're done enough for my own army! #WarhammerCommunity #Paintslam25 #nerdlings #warhammer #warhammer40k #Darkangels
The complete Hounds of Morkai claw joins the pack with the last two finished!
