1st Ed Space Hulk Genestealer Prep

I have some contrast paints on the way, sadly they wont get here till next week.  So I thought I'd use my time to get some genestealers prepped in anticipation.


You know just boring prep work like trimming flash


and gluing bases.


They are getting there, but not quite.


They need some liquitex light modeling paste on their bases, boring I know.




Primed white and ready for one thick coat!

    I've just started painting up my stealers with contrast paints, really great job. I can see me actually finishing an army!

    I think Contrast will quickly become the go-to system for painting genestealers....if they haven't already.

    I'll be doing mine in the same manner, but I won't have all my minis until Xmas so I'll have to wait until then to give it a try. I'll be interested to see how yours turn out in the interim.

    Keep in truckin Tom :)

      I should have all the colors by the weekend. Hoping for a 2 week turnaround at the latest.

    As Mr. P said, I also have it in mind to use Contrast paints on the genestealers. Interested to see your recipe ...

    I have a squad of 10 that's waiting for paint. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with the Contrast paints on these as I was considering using the same.

    The less glamorous, but totally necessary, side of the hobby.
