Made a gaming board for kill team out of one of the pieces of plasticard that was going to be skipped at work.
Cut it to the dimensions of the table top we've been using (90cm x 90cm) so it's almost twice as wide and a wee bit longer than the board that comes with the Kill Team box set (55cm x 76).
I sanded the board surface to give the undercoat a key and while the paint was still wet I sprinkled on two types of basing sand, one course and one fine. When this dried I went over with a dilute mix of black acrylic paint and went over again with grey and white undercoat spray. Might go over the lot with matt varnish to seal it all a bit more.

Very effective!
Cheers, got a few sheets of this so might do a more desert themed one too.
Mmm, fighting in custard.
Noted.

Whole pack are practically done now, few bits here and there, mostly the Tech-Priest to concentrate on.

I love these. Smooth finishing. The green works amazingly well as the armour colour.
Well hello, Mr Dimrill!
IS IT DIMRILL???!!!
Show us some spacemen, Dimmers!

Very Slaanesh.
Realised my board pic above is now out of date. Had to darken it a lot as it looked too light compared to my buildings. Painted up lots more bits recently (ammo crates, barrels, armoured container) so I'll get some pics taken.
Also: Tufts!

Pretty. If you're after a nice wrecked Rhino, issue 27 of Conquest has the chassis sprue attached to it. I picked one up to use as the base for this that I plan on buying at some point.

Oh yeah! Is that issue oot already?
Ah, it seams eBayers are selling the issues for more than a Rhino costs.

It is. I got my copy from Forbidden Planet last week. I ordered it along with 33, which'll be plasma conduits (still to be delivered).
Dimrill!

Hmm, I thought that was impressively cheap until I saw how big it was.
Where have you been Dimrill? Do you have any idea how much product still needs hand bombing onto the loading plate? Jeez!

I've heard scurrilous rumours that dentist didn't exist for Bowie of the 80s. Only Gnomes.
Comical.
Dimrill! Hope all's peachy! Missed having you around !
Pretty much done with these, just some bits around the lights / keypads on the container to do.
Dimmers!

Honestly, I don't know. I can't remember the last five years in detail. I've been living day to day and sometimes minute to minute to get through it. I've been drowning a long time hoping to take a good lungful and drift off.

Ta, there's a local model shop that's started carrying some Citadel stuff but choice is fairly limited.
Man, I love pin vicing bolters.

Nobody can take that away from you, precious
If you want to talk to my Dimrill you'd all better start painting some God damn fucking miniatures.
Fucking miniatures?
Problem?

I've been talking to him for years, and I haven't painted a minature since puberty. Fucking or otherwise.
Then David, now is your time to shine.

But you're a Warlord Titan, Dave. You have a shiney back balcony with a little man standing on it.
Ooh ooh I’ve also talked to Dimrill in the last five years! Maybe twice!

I was _rubbish_ at it
I'm not sure if I have, I think I found out that he was blocking me, and then I think I asked why (I don't know how I did that if I was being blocked) and had a conversation with him after I was unblocked and then found myself being blocked again. But that might have all been a dream, or I might have been drunk or anything. If it is true, and did/said something to offend/annoy then I'm sorry!

I am? I had no idea. What is being Twitter account of you?
Lonewolves used to be Myp. But isn't anymore. He's in the witness protection scheme because he saw Noel Edmonds murdering a rival TV presenter. Oops. Probably shouldn't have said that.
