Finally got around to testing some Two Thin Coats paints tonight.
Still very WIP, but the chainmail actually reads like chainmail now and the skin went on way smoother than what I’m used to.
Still need to finish shields and bases.
If you’ve used TTC, what paints/washes are worth picking up?
Leaning hard into that Dark Age feel—muddy tones, worn iron, no clean finishes. These guys shouldn’t look pretty… they should look like they just stepped off a longship.
More coming soon.
This is exactly the kind of mess I wanted — shieldwall holding, axes coming in, and somebody about to have a real bad afternoon.
The playtest packet is getting close.
Still a WIP, but I’m really happy with how the face and beard are turning out so far. Trying to keep these guys looking rough, weathered, and mean instead of clean fantasy heroes.
Also getting more comfortable with the Two Thin Coats paints every model I finish.
Three men who look like they’ve survived shipwrecks, winter starvation, and at least two murders apiece.
Exactly the kind of people you do not want stepping off a longship onto your shore.
Norse warband coming together for Oaths & Banners. Axes, mail, bad intentions, and absolutely no interest in diplomacy.
Look like they’ve spent the last six months sleeping in mud, drinking ditch water, and arguing over who gets the first axe swing.
Exactly how I wanted them.
