That includes painting, drying time, washing brushes, changing water, mixing paints and blabbing at the camera o_O Anyways here is a cut down, short tutorial of where to start...

WIP: NOCF Vignette - The Final Details
EEsh. Let's put this one out of it's misery. We've toyed with it long enough - like a DeathJester toying with a lone veteran Sons Of Orar Spacemarine. I used Fernando's cool wet technique on the blacks with the colors above. You can see the nice smooth look on the legs after the jump...

WIP: NOCF Vignette - Marine Final Details
Oh man. This one has dragged on like some kind of horrible campaign on a doomed Craftworld o_O Above I added the decals as guides for my freehand work. After the jump you can see how I paint over them...

On Display: The Pretty Skull
The "client" corrected me. This isn't a candied skull at all. It's: The pretty Skull. ~sigh~ Powerless. Alright, onto the pretty pretty pictures....

WIP: Candied Skull
The Agent of Chaos has been after me for ages to make her a Candied Skull. After the whole Star Wars Rebels debacle I am powerless to stop her. Let's follow the rabbit down the rabbit hole shall we?

WIP: Star Wars Rebels
So you may remember that a while ago I was strong armed into buying the set above by The Agent of Chaos. Around that time I was lucky enough to have a chance to test out a new line of paint being developed by a fellow from CMON. So guess who got a nicely painted set of Star Wars Rebels minis for their birthday? Let's see how things went...

Testing: A New Line of Paints
So a new line of paints in being made by a fellow artist on CMON. I got my hands on a set of 10 colors to help test and give feedback. They will be perftec for painting up the Star Wars Rebels set The Agent of Chaos talked me into purchasing and painting for her. It's a victory for everyone I assure you o_O

WIP: NOCF Marines - Lenses, Purity Seals, OSL & Decals
Man were the lenses easy to paint! Good thing too, there were a lot. Paint white on the lens. Flood the area with Waywatcher Green Glaze. That's it...

WIP: NOCF Eldar Final Details
I used the colors above to do the freehand. Lots of very thin glazes getting darker and darker as I went with the original helmet colors for touch ups as I went. I figured Eldar were fancy and would do freehand art on their helmets. More details below...

WIP: NOCF More Details (the tedious ones)

WIP: NOCF Armies: The Build
So by now you know I am helping out with the NOCF charity army build again this year. It's Sons of Orar Space Marines VS Eldar! I'm hedging my bets and working on a unit for both armies. I've teased a few things from the painting process up to this point, but now lets get into detail of how I do the building and painting. Boring grey plastic first!

WIP: Monochrome Loka Pawns
A while ago CMoN was having a painting contest for limited palettes. I have wanted to paint up my Loka board games pieces forever and I have wanted to try a monochromatic paint scheme for a long time too. Two birds one stone? Yes please! *Note: No birds were hurt in the making of this post*
