Time to Go Bowling with a Mangler!


The Mangler Squig is ready to cause havoc!

With these larger models, the Army Painter dip is at the limit of what it can deliver. I am not completely pleased with how some of the larger recesses ended up looking, even though the overall effect is tabletop ready. This model will not win any competitions, but it will hopefully flatten some units.

I was pleasantly surprised by the GW yellow Base colour which I used on the Night Goblin hoods. A single layer of the base and a touch-up of bright yellow created a very nice and quick effect. This method of painting yellow rays on black is much quicker than the traditional method of painting the rays in white first and then covering with yellow. If you are still on the fence about the Base paint set, I can vouch for the yellow at least.

Next up, the Horde keeps marching on to the 2000 point mark. I have two more models to add to the mix and then the Horde will be unleashed.
