Well, yes, this Darkforged thing made me put some attention on CD infantry again.
But since redoing the already rather effortful shields, going back to an earlier design, is more on the frustrating side of the hobby, I decided to do something significantly more entertaining.
Bases, that in large numbers make you notice the number of their creation steps, so it’s been a few days again. But I decided to document it this time, as long as I more of less remember the process.
The square plates were already prepared from earlier. They are 20 mm in case you are wondering.
So, first there would be rough coffee,
then the fine one,
then a coat with something the dictionary translates deep solvent primer to let it all set,
(you won’t recognize much change, it’s a transparent liquids that dries after a while.)
And yesterday I filed the edges into a smoother and more base-like shape:
Looking at it, maybe at the end of the month I’ll have finished bases for the hypothetical core unit. ^^"
The colouring part, before the crackle medium, is the interesting part I had to experiment more with and remember worse what the optimized process came out to be at the end. So it’ll become even more interesting the next days…
Stay tuned, or so.
