Any conversion or paint job ideas for these? Reaper Miniatures Heartbreakers. I’m thinking of adding a boltgun and chainsword. Maybe yellow body and arms, white or leather brown boots and gloves. Quartered body with a heart icon centrally?

How I paint my yellow (slapchop-ish, oil wash, no highlights)

Here’s how I do my yellow. I started my Lamenters a couple of years ago, and might do them differently now, but I like a uniform look so will continue with this technique.

  1. ⁠I paint the heads and backpack separately so I can access tricky areas. I glue sand to the base with PVA.
  2. ⁠Rattlecan spray Vallejo Bonewhite or similar.
  3. ⁠Paint the base. I use some thin browns and drybrushing for an ash waste look. I do this stage now because it is fun and messy. Any terrible messes I can cover with Vallejo Bonewhite from ta dropper bottle.
  4. ⁠Drybrush white. This is a cheap craft paint. This is my approach to Le Slapchop without a really dark base layer.
  5. ⁠Citadel Ironjawz Yellow
  6. ⁠SMS Umber wash. https://www.scalemodeller.com.au/products/wash-umber-30ml This is an oil-based wash I try to get into all the shadows, but I can be pretty messy with it.
  7. ⁠I use a makeup sponge and a trace of artist’s white spirit to remove any excess wash. All done!
  8. ⁠Paint the rest of the owl.

Land Speeder

I magnetized the underslung weapons and flightstand. The flightstand is clear perspex with UV resin. I will overpaint the heart decals; I didn’t see how translucent they were whilst painting them.

I like the upcoming Armageddon Ancient, but not the sculpted details. Has anyone had any success carving and smoothing previous sculpted banners?
