splinx Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 I'm about 40hrs out from OFCC and decided to do a display board for my Dread Elves. I have to work 8hrs tomorrow which leaves me 32hrs (with sleep somewhere in between) to try and get it done. Here goes. LOL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've started an essentially new position at my job, so these last 3 weeks have been insane. My Tusker Cavalry are sadly going to be stuck in the realm of "3 color minimum" for this year . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splinx Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 So after a few hours sleep i have carved out some styrofoam and have got a rough idea of where everything is going on the board. On my lunch break today I'm gonna shoot home and use some filler and get some stuff sculpted and then onto painting tonight. LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBeninator Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Your dedication is impressive. Funny how painting figurines is the only way to convince yourself to pull an "all nighter". Reminds me of me and my roommate's 24 hour painting marathon OFCC 2015. Burned thru a 12oz bag of stumptown and nearly the entire Blueprints of Armageddon from Dan Carlin (which on an aside, if you have never heard of Dan Carlin, you are missing out!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have not yet, check out Destroyer of Worlds (came out this year). It is pretty sobering. If only he would do a podcast on the Old World + Lustria. I don't much care about the rest.

splinx Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 24hrs to go update! Mountains are dry and have had some airbrush work and snow etc put on there and I'm calling it good! Glued to the base board and now have to wait before adding texture to the board. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splinx Posted July 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Putty work is done. Have to wait for this to dry which may take a few hours. Cold hair dryer may come out to help the drying process along. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
