Adeptus Titanicus - Cream battlefield assets, terminal pins and markers - TO DONE! 🔴⚪

Afternoon #Warhammer Community I've been #PaintingWarhammer on my Adeptus Titanicus - Battlefield assets, terminal pins and markers and no, it's not deja vu! Again... We had another set of battlefield assets and I thought they'd look cool in cream and bronze.


Also, Liam needed a Titan head marker that matched his basing style, rather than the one I did on Red Planet BASE! ðŸ”´


I did want to go with more Blessed Verdigris 🗽 for these but forgot just how much I'd done on the red assets




Still, I really like doing these and getting to explore different colours schemes for them.


It's a shame you don't really get to use more than a couple of them per game.


Also, Otty made his own Eldar themed ones. Which is as it should be, but it does mean that our current game is only using one of my sets.


And even then I put a Void Shield Generator in the wrong place so my Titans are getting ZERO benefit from it. Liam is very grumpy with me! 🤣


I am very pleased I managed to match his basing though. It's not a 100% perfect but so close it's almost weird trying to work out why it's not spot on.


Arc templates. I wanted something that was a bit more 'steampunk'


And I just love these ones so much'


The patinaed bronze, cream and then the red glass inserts, fabulous.


Now, I did not do the terminal pins. As annoying as it is that we have another set that is unpainted they have all bee cut from the sprue. Finding a way to paint them all individually was not a task I was willing to do when I've so much else I could enjoy painting instead. So they are left for now, we've more than enough.



Great Big Chrome Stamps of Approval according to my spreadsheet this is worth 13 points. Plus a 5 point terrain bonus, it's a bit cheeky under the circumstance. But, the premise of the bonus is you are doing something for the benefit of everyone, not just painting your own grey pile of shame. These are terrain pieces and they are for other to use, so it qualifies. Therefore, this brings me up to 186 points for the season so far.

Terrain is everything - Middle Earth Osgiliath Ruins - Viaduct and Ruin - TO DONE! ⚪

Afternoon #Warhammer Community I know it's been a while but I've actually been #PaintingWarhammer on some MESBG terrain I was lucky enough to get for Christmas. These were all 3D printed sets on Amazon that my wife and my mate Pete got for me. Alternatively you can pick them up at www.qp3dwargames.co.uk The last group of pieces, the viaduct and a ruin.


I know the 'soil' is a bit weird here. But it hides the print lines and adds a bit of colour.


Again the yellow lichen, but I did add a bit of orange in places as the image search did show variety in the lichen to be much warmer colours. I do like it here, even if again there's a lot.


I shaded the grass a bit with green wash to add variety.


It's a bit clumsy, the wash didn't spread and blend as much as I expected but I do like it. 


The corner ruin.


I should have put some flowers on the mound now that I look at it.


Some white Kingsfoil, but I only had the mixed flowers from my Halfling Blood Bowl Team which would have been a bit too fancy.


There are still a few pieces from QP3D I could add to the set but I think I'm done for the time being.


We do have an unpainted Elven tower as well that needs attention. Liam 3D printed it years back and it's just sat there doing nothing. I may ask them for it...



Great Big Chrome Stamps of Approval according to my spreadsheet this is worth 20 points. Plus the 5 point terrain bonus, but I am applying that just once for the whole Osgiliath Ruins project. So, this brings me up to 168 points for the season so far.

Terrain is everything - Middle Earth Osgiliath Ruins - Corner Ruin - TO DONE! ⚪

Afternoon #Warhammer Community I know it's been a while but I've actually been #PaintingWarhammer on some MESBG terrain I was lucky enough to get for Christmas. These were all 3D printed sets on Amazon that my wife and my mate Pete got for me. Alternatively you can pick them up at www.qp3dwargames.co.uk The 3rd piece of terrain - the 'Corner Ruin'. This again comes in two pieces, the staircase section and the first storey ruin. 


Now this seems to make a lot more sense to keep together. It definitely feels like a centrepiece model where a duel could take place leading up the stairs, like in Highlander,


That said, it can be separated and I think there is enough surface area to still fight on top.


I did consider adding magnets into the stonework but it seemed over kill.


Again, a lot of yellow lichen. it could have done with some green instead perhaps.


But I do actually like the very weathered result. Even though I can see a lot of the original zenithal primer.


This both pleases me, because it justifies the effort of doing it in the first place. But, also angers me as it feels like I didn't do the subsequent washes and highlights that the process demands of me.


I am compelled by the process, damned if I do and damned if I don't. Which is why ultimately I just need to say it's done and move on.

 

The first storey can easily be used as a separate piece of terrain.


Again, I like the result.


Can't wait to get to play on it.


My only regret is these can't form part of my Armies on Parade this year because they're unofficial and I didn't create them 😩 Still, nevermind.
