Sentinels

I've finished the first unit! Armoured sentinels, I don't know why I always make glowy bits purple, I always regret it afterwards! Fairly pleased with the speed at which these came out though (only a handful of hours).

The freehand is a bit janky too, but that's what you get for a quick job!




Basing

Another quick post to show some basing I was asked about. The previous posts bases were using cork and GW's Agrellan Earth to make the crackle effect. This base was too, but to a little higher standard since it was for a display miniature (which I never finished!)...

 Also I skimmed then sanded the back smooth because it was for display.

Basing Prototypes

<< Checkword #d9-alpha
<<Deployment confirmed>>
<<Planet Type: desert world>>

<<Transmission Ends>>


So the first bases are done, they ended up a little less orange than I'd hoped and I think I should have added some sand to get them more desert like but I'm happy enough with them, should provide a good counterpoint to blue tones on the troops.

I will need to blend the metal parts into the base with some orange 'dust' but I'll do that near the end.





Onwards to the miniatures!
