 It's the Midweek Roundup Hi folks and welcome to the Midweek Roundup The second of our video Midweek Roundups Shaking it up a little bit And this week we've got Rob with us as well Hello! You sure said special guest Oh sorry, our very special guest That's better, yeah We thought it'd be interesting to have a different guest each week When available to bounce off each other And get some other opinions on your wonderful paintings And just to be clear, you're only going to show me goblins I'm not only going to show you just goblins I'm only going to show you your goblins Fantastic, yeah, great And I'm going to critique them I'm not so sure now So, first up we have got Andy Ransom With his Infernox Really nice paint job there A lot of interesting dry brushing Highlight the rocks and the molten lava Really interesting base as well Really like the base technique when you take the pieces of cork And layer them up like that Andy's famous for painting a lot of orange Andy 2D6 as well, he's got it on the YouTube channel People want to check that out It's nice to see that he's carried on the theme there And I guess this is for his official dwarf army King's of War From Forgefather as well No, actually no, I think they were pink So he diverted away We've got Billy Cap gone next He's talking of Forgefather It's like I knew that It links it together Artifices of Juggernaut Fantastic on the base with the smashing rocks And the off-source lighting On there with the purple Really really nice And a bit of orange on it Today's theme is orange Today's theme is orange Until it's not I love the Juggernaut For me it's one of the key models I like the Iron Ancest as well But compared to this it looks a bit dinky It's a really nice model This is a really beefy one To see it painted up is really nice It's very good in the game as well In Firefight and in Deadzone as well I need to get mine on the table actually Talking of Deadzone, sorry can I do a teaser A promotion If you want to come to the Deadzone UK Championships That's on the 10th and 11th of September We've still got some tickets Obviously Billy, because I think he's in the US I mean he could fly over International representation But yeah, there's still tickets And that's on the website isn't it On the events page Sorry to sabotage you all It's important that we get this information out there We've got yellow I'll take it This is the Vimin Tunneler This is by Elblas Go check them out on Instagram I'm not going to attempt to pronounce The Instagram name Blas Bunny Brush maybe Blas for El Really really like the effect On this tunnel runner The damage, the chip in And that sort of thing It's really really nicely painted And the basin with the barbed wire And everything as well really adds to it doesn't it Yeah I think so this is another really iconic Sort of miniature I think for the I think you've got probably the Maybe the tunneler as well But I think tunnel runners also Absolutely fantastic in Firefight I think you need at least five At least Yeah I'd say no self-respecting Broodmother Leaves without at least five Yeah so I think I guess if this is for Was this for Deadzone or Firefight do you know I'm not sure to be honest Both But I think there'll be a lot more then If it's going to be for Firefight Five easily No orange Well is yellow on the jacket is it Yeah it's like that sort of light Leather You could say it's very dark orange on the balloon Yeah sure Take it where you can Johnny Dan Byrd's painted up this halfling It's fantastic I really like how The balloon actually looks like It's got air in it the way he's done the highlights And the shadows in the greens and the reds It's really really nice Yeah I've seen a few of Dan's Halflings on Twitter I think I think he's been A large army now I think Yeah I think aeronauts again We're talking about those iconic ones I think this is certainly one for the halflings Again very good in game That's probably why he's painting up so many of them For me I really like these I converted one of these for my goblins So we were close with goblins Again there Really nice model and again Dan's done a great job there I think the leather effects on the bag Is really good and I'd say the wood On there is really cool Very realistic looking I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of those Seeing that army finished And then we've got Dylan's plague army Dylan is cleric's son who works for us Cleric works for us not Dylan Yeah no child labour Not yet He's super proud of getting his plague For Dead Zone and Firefight So all painted up and completed And I think you'll agree it's a fantastic job Be taking over his dad soon He's already a better player I'm trying to think because I played a firefight tournament recently And Dylan was there He was playing GCPS that one Very very good player I can't remember if he beat If he came above his dad or not But yeah really good Let's say he did I made the rules But yeah I think Dylan's really good He's really into firefight as well So it's nice to see this coming along Yeah let's see youngsters getting involved Yeah And we've got Yui Turner with a Strider for the Maison Labs I think Really really nice paint scheme with this Like the contrasting colours And Very nice sharp crisp base as well That sort of indoor urban Field to the base Yeah I like to say the gun's really good It kind of stands out so you can really see that I think the base Some people do different bases for dead zone I think actually Sometimes you've got to be careful about not making them too high Or making them too decorative So I think actually this sort of thing where you can kind of make it look like A kind of Hanger Bay or something It's actually really effective so yeah really cool And I think having the gun yellow as well Just helps it sort of tie in with the base as well With the hazard stripes doesn't it And then makes it sort of pop as well Rather than being all black Another one where I look forward to seeing the whole Nice Joe McLaren is tree herder It's really interesting this Tree herder itself is She almost says an autumn deciduous tree It's got some leaves on it That's my degree coming through That's my degree of auto culture coming through It's not got a lot of leaves on it So it's quite interesting to see someone Take some flock and bush it out a little bit Looks really nice And then that sort of eerie Eyes as well with that Sort of icy blue Yeah I think that's It's simple but incredibly effective To add some of the flock on as well So yeah I don't think I've seen anyone do that No I don't think I've seen anyone do that It really stood out Joe is the first person ever to do this He's a pine in your knee Oh fantastic I think people will take a leaf out of his book now They will yes Shall we stop there You guys will be barking at the wrong door Steve, Mr. Shackford He's been finishing off his plague force With a lot of leapers They've been painting these for a little while Because they are the old leapers Still very nice models Would highly recommend upgrading Getting the nice snazzy new resin leapers though Because they are stunning Really really nice paint job Really I like how all of them Have been painted So closely matched to each other If that makes sense It's a really neat job A lot of reposing as well You've got the one leaping over the barrier You've got the one that looks like he's really sad He's crying That's where Mandy Ransom is I must admit I've seen quite a lot of rusty Different armies He's got ones for Kings of War as well I think Abyssal Dwarfs And Dwarfs I really like his painting style I think it's really distinctive So this looks really good It's always very high contrast Isn't it? Yeah these look great That's it for this week folks We've been some really excellent paint jobs I've really enjoyed the basing this week I've been some top work It's all about the base It's all about the base And on that note You say you've enjoyed having me on Johnny as well I have enjoyed being here next to Rob Thank you Well thank Rob for his wonderful Opinions and hopefully find him some goblins For the next time we get him on Next week we'll try and get a different guest on And hopefully we'll have lots more Paintings to show Thanks guys
