Dark Angels Inceptors, and a Palate Cleanser

I finished the 3 Dark Imperium Primaris Inceptors- everybody is right, the GW flight stands for these are awful. They look pretty but I don't see how they can possibly be expected to stand up to any kind of use. At any rate, I've been painting on my Dark Angels for a while and I needed a palate cleanser, so I took one of the hero models (the Ember Mage) from my original Super Dungeon Explore set that's been sitting half painted for years and years and finished her up.

Here's some pics.

The Paladin in the background there is the only other model that's painted- yikes! Maybe I can speed-paint some of the mooks this weekend!

Until next time...

Damn Your Eyes...

A little liquid courage,  and voila.

Eyes,  done.

Last Week in Paint

Or: Never Mind the White Scar
So... Super Dungeon Explore is the greatest board game ever. My kids and I all love it, and my wife is even willing to play occasionally. Here's a Royal Paladin- I had to fake some skintone paint and it came uot a little chunky. I'm terrified of the eyes, but I've ordered a couple of itty-bitty Army Painter brushes to give them a shot.

Also, I slapped a little PFA True Burgundy and another few layers of Citadel Liche Purple onto the Predator Cruor Dexter (it looks ashy here, but that's just because the white balance of the photo is jacked). Once I get it blinged out, it ought to look pretty sharp.

Speaking of bling- does anybody have an opinion on Vallejo's 'liquid gold' alcohol-based paint? It seems lke all of my metallics have gone rubbery and I'm thinking of upgrading.
