Armorcast Warhound #1 - 28

How did I get the checkered leg ?

First, you have to apply masking tape on the leg, even where you need the checkered paint.

First, you have to trace all the vertical lines.

It's easier when the horizontal ones aren't done yet, because you need to place all these lines around the leg.

And they aren't parallel to each other.

Because the base is larger than the top.

It's a bit tricky but once you get it, it's easy to do.

Good news : horizontal lines are parallel to each others. ;-)

Now all the lines are on the aera you need to be checkered, you need to put some pencil to see the checks.

The penciled squares will be removed and painted in the new color.

After using some sharp tool to cut the squares that have to be removed, you can see the checkred aera take place.

Red undercoat, et voilà...

The beast is fully undercoated.
Now I need to paint her.

Grey undercoat ? check.

White undercoat ? check.

Black undercoat ? check.

...

Lets add some masking tape and get the warhound ready for the red undercoat.

Then everything will be ok for the real painting time.

Now I'm back on tracks, the second color is applied.

I'll use the same color sheme, like the one I used for my previous knights.

Next color will be black. and then... RED.

Seems my last week post disappeared in the warp...

Last week, i was finally done with the greenstuff on all the warhound parts.

Or so did I think...
I undercoated some parts and, when it dried, I discovered a bunch of tiny holes and flash lines I didn't see before.
[Cries out loud]

I took some minis plastic filler and used to fill all the holes in could see now.

I'll go back to bases colors when I'm done with the holes filling stuff for the second time...

Back to gaming !

When you see you can't get anymore motivation for your projets, you know it's time for a game.

We had a game last sunday, a 2 vs 2, with wome 1.5k armies.

It was an awkward alliance between Orks (korsairs) and some White Scars vs Dark Angels and UltraSumrfs.

At the third -and last- turn, I finally allowed the terminators to rain on the table. 

Seeing this, one scout sergeant yelled from the top of his lungs "YOLO!!!" and sprinted for an epic fight with the Big Boss and his Nobz.

No need to say that he was dead before the end of the turn...

Unfortunately, we couldn't play more than three turns.

It finished on a draw.

It was a fun game and I was really happy to play again.

Last time I played was in august, 10 month ago.

I needed time to heal some scars.

Hi all

I'm not dead, neither did I let it go. ;-)

When I said I was ready to be back on tracks, life just laughed and sender me more lemons than I needed.

Now then sh*the storm is, almost, over, I worked on the warhound.

I added some more greenstuff on the warhound. 

Sand papered it. 

Next step, finishing the Base and... undercoat !
