Matt J Painting diary 2021

[Matt J]

Hi all

Very little time to paint over the last couple of years (house move and renovations, kids, job, life... and Covid) but finally managed to pick up the brushes a bit more consistently last couple of months and decided to try a painting diary (again...).
Plenty of projects on the go mostly a mix of 10mm and GW stuff (i'm a sucker for the plastic crack they peddle).
On the desk at the mo I'm trying to finally make some progress on my 10mm Vietnam stuff and finish Brit forces for Quebec.
GW stuff at the mo are Underworlds warbands and the betrayal at calth box set which has laid undisturbed for a couple of years.

These are the bits and pieces finished most recently -

My Australian forces for Vietnam.
Small force at the moment consisting of 1 platoon infantry and 1 troop of centurions and a bridge layer.













and the GW stuff.
Underrworlds warbands (I mostly use NMM techniques on 28mm stuff)
Sig marines



Orcs



and Tzeentch warband






Anyway hopefully it won't be months before I post again!

Nice work, they look great.

[Smithy]

Fantastic!
Great detail and highlights on the 10mm
And lovely NMM on the GW stuff. (remembers all the WFB armies I had in the 90s - sigh)

[Noktu]

Impressive indeed!

Masterclass painting.

Excellent Matt.


Can't wait for Nobby's reaction too...

[Steve J]

Absolutely superb Matt . But I have no idea what the NMM technique means!

I think Nobby should be banned from viewing this on health grounds .

Thanks guys!

Steve NMM is Non Metallic Metals ie getting a metal effect using normal paints not metallic paints.
