Since everyone and their mother has a painting/hobby topic on here, I figured I could have one too. Even though I know my guys look horrible compared to most on the boards. I figure it will help reassure people that "Yes someone does paint worse than me"

To start I have some Macharius Mk I

As L4 pointed out there from a "Reaver" Forgeworld. I got them as a gift from Glyn after he found my "missing" package under his couch. It had been "missing" in the "mail" for months....lol! There the only ones I have so far. But reinforcements are scheduled to be completed in a few moths from a very "Water" Forgeworld, a MkII Macaroni. I hope to see them in my Armoured Regiment.

As for the paint job is was quite easy. I used LOTS of short cuts. I sprayed them Sliver with The Army Painter colored primer. Then I painted the red and black details here and there. Then I dip/splashed on The Army Painter QuickShade (Strong Tone) and let them dry. They came out a little browner then I expected. Didn't think about that. But I don't have endless amounts of Amour Wash anymore and I have too many IG tanks to do in the coming months.

For comparison pic's I might be able to later day and post them. There basically length of a SHT but the width of a LR.

Ok, then this Army Painter stuff is better then I expected.
