#HobbyStreak day 666: Painted up a Death Guard.
Pro tip: let the primer set for 24 hrs or so before basecoat and streaking grime. I like the result, but the scratches visible in the third photo went down to the plastic.

Recipe: thin layers of a creamy off white airbrushed over white primer, followed by green, black, and dark bronze details. Slather in AK Streaking Grime, remove grime with white spirits and a brush or whatever.

Last set of Adherent pics number 4 of 7.

I had decided to try my hand at brush volumetric highlights on the black armor. On the plus side: I have 100% discovered my limit as a mini painter.

Each set of armor is probably a good 3 hours, and the result does not show that time investment. ☹️

I think they look okay in person, but this is one hell of a hard technique to pull off. (Glare alone when painting makes it horribly hard)

And ... final post! If you made it through all 14, thanks for reading. I think I'll be able to finish last year's goals - finishing up my Primaris marines from Indomitus and my 3k pt Salamanders 30k army.

...and building my own Reaver Titan. Next Mega-Battle I'll be able to throw down on equal footing.

Looking forward to the distraction of hobbying again in 2025.
