Slow Progress...

My 15mm SciFi project continues to make sloooooow progress.  Not really much to report - only a few WIP shots.

First up, Sahadeen:

I began with a coat of thinned US Field Drab from Vallejo's Model Color line.

Then some Desert Yellow on the bases.

I'm working on painting various bits - hoods, belts, boots, etc. - with different shades of brown.  I will add some bits of brighter yellow or red for contrast here and there. I'm planning to shade using the Army Painter Strong Tone shader just as I did with my Earth Force Marines.

I've also done a little painting on my buildings. I decided to base coat in Khaki Tan, a color I found among the craft paints at Hobby Lobby.  Here are some pics:

Refinery/Power Station with base coat of Khaki Tan.

Barracks/Warehouse with base coat and wash.

All 3 buildings in their current state.

After base coat and wash on the buildings, I highlighted with Khaki Tan and then successive highlights of Khaki Tan mixed with increasing amounts of Ivory.  I tend to use craft paints on my buildings and terrain as it is cheaper.  However, I base coated the doors and bits with Vallejo Chocolate Brown. I will highlight these and add various colors for detail.

That's all I've had time to accomplish lately.  As I said, sloooow progress.  Still, slow is better than stop!

Until next time, carry on!
