Dreadtober Begins!

 In The Grim Darkness Of The Far Future, There Is Only... Snow????

So excited to be here for my third Dreadtober.  Two years ago this month, this blog was created for the purpose of sharing my Dreadtober progress so this is always one of my favorite painting projects of the year.  This time around I'm adding another member to the Deathwing portion of my army, a Venerable Dreadnought. The picture of my primed model above will show my amateur's attempt at a zenithal highlight for the first time in my painting career.  Since I don't have an airbrush, my rattle can combination of primers may or may not bring the desired effect.  It will be a fun experiment nonetheless and I'm excited to get working on this project.  Clink on the link to be sure to check out all the fun at the main Dreadtober site.

  1. Looking forward to seeing this go from this dark base [even with the zenithal highlight] to the white. Good luck with it. I'm feeling overwhelmingly confident despite a recent hobby hiatus. I feel like I'm already on the home stretch, when in fact I've just done the base coats. It's a really good community event, but I also have to prepare for Armies on Parade. I want to take some pictures tomorrow...

    1. Thanks for the well wishes. I can empathize with your hobby hiatus, I have been painting and playing a lot which is great but it's left me little time to get any of that progress and gaming enjoyment onto this blog. I still have to sum up last year's hobby season and lay out my goals for next year ;-)
