Another Kill Team finished. Technically the first one, too. Starting to get a good feel for how I'll do my Orks.

Testing an idea: under-shade of dark green Speed Paint over the black primer. I'm not sure I see much once the reds are applied. The shadows look very similar to the one I tried with a red under-coat. I guess that means I can't go too wrong.

I was able to get him to this state in just an hour of brush time. Not quite finished (and I absent mindedly gave him Sargent colors) but dangerously close. 18 Marines to this standard feels feasible.

3D printed some stands to make it easier to use the backdrops. I had been hanging them, but that was just enough extra work each time I needed to swap that I rarely changed background.

Next update for the photography setup: more ground options with different heights, colors, and textures.

All base coats on, shade applied, texture paint on the bases. Just a few highlights and details away from calling another tab finished.

Some progress on these two to inch towards finishing the Kill Team and getting used to Orkish details.

Irrationally pleased with these beady little eyes that no one will ever get to see under his cap.

Defining the scope of the problem: everything that has been sitting half-finished, either individually or as a project, on my desk is now in one place.

This is something I can make progress against!

Ork Test 2: Complete

The zombie Ork stayed pretty undead. But the rest of the scheme came together very quickly. I'm not sure if doing red fur the Orks and for the Blood Angels is going to be too much. Maybe a nice Goff black?

Another aspect of #11thEdition prep. I printed these stencil templates to mark the new terrain boundaries. With just a bit of primer and paint they should walk the line between being noticable for reference and blending into the background enough to not be distracting.
