I actually have painted 34 models so far, 30 of which are Termagants. It’s a simple but basic scheme that allows me, in theory, to paint a lot of minis relatively quickly.

I didnt wanna crowd the light box to much so you get 10 out of 30. I might make another shot with more of my lil fellas.

I consider them finished and tabletop ready.

Here is another angle.

EDIT Might make a follow up post with all 30 later this weekend. Hope thats ok

    You should use a black background for these guys, the white is washing out the colour I suspect A lower angle would also help a little imo.

    Nice paintjob, I salute anyone willing to not only brave modern GW detail abuse but to do it for horde armies.

    Looks pretty good. I especially like the chitin color you chose. You definitely should post the rest.

    I suppose this is where we share models now that tabletop is locked? I wouldn’t mind posting some of my Word Bearers.

    I love them! (Having only painted a few minis) Was there any trick to getting the teeth right?

    Sorry if thats not what you wanna hear but... Just a rather small brush and hand eye coordination.

    Oh I've accepted that the real trick is practice. I was just curious if you used any masking or base coat tricks to get them so well-defined. Thank you!

    Only techniques I used for these models are basic drybrushing and layering. No washes.

    EDIT for creatures or monster teeth you can use dark colors or straight up black as base color (of the mouth) before you paint in the teeth so you get a strong contrast.

    They look amazing!! Can tell you’ve got some experience with those tiny little brushes. The shading looks really good and I like what you picked for the bases. Would love to see all 30 heart-sickle
