Mini painting is fun

@FLGTV No one is excited for cash grabs made obsolete before theyre sold!

@FLGTV ❌ Monopose ❌
I hope these are just the sprues for the launch boxes.

Keeping up the dread & nid carnage that captured me as a kid. Def wont be painted by the end of the month but it doesnt need to be march to work on the boys. #MarchforMacragge #ultramarines

#MarchForMacragge week 3, unified over 50 bases, added a Leviathan and Cap Messinius, got most of the shoulder trim started. Quite a bit to go tho! #warhammer40k #ultramarines

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

This is my starting point for #MarchForMacragge this year. Theres a bit more to come but im mainly hoping to unify everything except my childhood paintjobs in the back corner. #warhammer40k #ultramarines

Im not sure if im allowed to say this, my lawyers will say “sir its too soon” but ill tell you anyway: im going to be featured on the hobby roundup this thursday 5pm british time with some of my boys in blue!

This weekend i did most of the base coats on the ridge runners. Theres a bit of highlighting to do and then im going to slop em up with weathering.

This week in my hobby:
- completed building and primed 3 ridge runners (not pictured)
- 90% finished their bases
- quick 1 night palate cleanser zombicide bp James with osl

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

The only raffle ive ever won was the very first FigurePrints give away. The elation of actually winning something was immediately dwarfed by the dread of how bad my character looked at the time. I spent two weeks grinding pvp to get as much of the set as possible before the print

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

next up: a pair of ridge runners are on guard as their 3rd busted an axel or something.
I cant do a 3 of these without modifying 1 at least a little bit.

What to do better next time:
Plan ahead - i was chaotic in the directions i went with each project and wasted a lot of time repeating steps and having to remix colors a lot.
Basing needs to cover everything, theres shouldnt be a bare unprimed spot on the big models

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

Forgot to post my #marchformacragge results! Fully painted 2 dreads and 5 terminators, then added some decals and did some basing on some of the other forces that were missing those details, some not pictured as they werent fully finished.

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

What i learned:
‘eavy metal edge highlighting is not the only way to edge highlight
Wet blending on the larger panels is not too bad
A ton of diorama experience

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

@Luetin09 The existence of squats implies the existence of genestealer cult squats :)

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

Theres still some little things here and there but def good enough to call done for the deadline. Made it in time for #marchformacragge !

Just a bit more to go on this guy, couple highlight spots, bit more shading, plasma coils, hoping to finish the dread by the end of #MarchForMacragge and ill circle back to the genestealers later on.

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

For the month of April ive got 3 ridge runners and 2 rock grinders that are in various stages of completeness from on sprue to primed so 4 weeks to finish all 5 should be alright.

[Mini Rye @ryebread_minis]

@Daemon_Hammer Would love to win! Check out my ultramarines center piece!
