Old Glory Biblicals - WIP
Pulled a marathon and painted up the three bags of OG Biblicals today. These are the Anatolian Spearmen, Philistine and Sherden packs. Here they are freshly stained with Minwax.
They were given a very basic (if not crude) paint job prior to the staining. They are broken down into six separate units.
They'll be given a finish of Testors Dullcote once dried; plan to base them on 40mm squares - four figures per..

Great stuff Dean.
ReplyDeleteAmazing progress and I'd say that your self described standard of "crude" equates to my "best-effort" level.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive!

Thank you all for the kind comments. I must give the Minwax stain much of the credit. Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteGreat work!
ReplyDeleteGreat job Dean! You paint high-quality figures faster than any other gamer I know.
ReplyDeleteGood grief that's a lot of figures, you'll need a few beers after these!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job Dean. Just in time for the release of the FREE Chariot Wars Supplement for WAB. You should check it out.
ReplyDelete90 models in a day and a half?!?!?!?!?!
ReplyDelete91 - I had an extra Sherdan dude :)!
ReplyDeleteQuite a group, nice work Dean
ReplyDeleteYou did WHAT??!! I'm going to slink away now and feel sorry for myself and my thousands of unpainted miniatures. I hear them asking to move to your house.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words, Gents.
ReplyDeleteKevin: This is how I meditate prior to attending a post-Enfilade committe meeting. ;)! Dean
They look very nice. Perhaps you need to show some crazy close ups so we can all see this 'crudeness'! I wish I could pull that sort of paint job off, even over days. Practice practice! You show me what is possible :) Thanks for the post
ReplyDeleteWow Dean! (Howzit bra?) That's a terrific speed painting job - wish I could paint that fast - I've got a horde of Prussians to do - so your speed paint method would be handy! I take it Miniwax is an American stain laquer of some sort that does a similar job to the ridiculously expensive Army Painter? Great job man!

ReplyDeleteAloha'z - My buddy painted up a bunch of Perry Prussians using the stain method. They look great. Yes, the brand Minwax is a stain here in the Colonies - the version I use (as most others) is polyurethane acrylic based; not oil/laquer based. The oil/laquer type seems to never dry - at here in the rarely-sunny Pacific NW. The shade most use is Tudor Satin - kind of a blackish-brown tone. Best, Dean
