Lol, the sneaksy-sneaksy kind! Those are slaves dressed in my armor as decoys!
My main color scheme is going to be Black and Brown with Grey fur. I want them to be a dirty army of the shadows, hence the muted color scheme. Also, it'll make their red eyes and bright green warpstones really pop!

I typically just go black primer. It hides any small points I may miss really well. OCASIONALLY I will use white primer if I'm painting something really bright (like my High Elves). But since my fur on these guys will be grey, I'll just prime black.

But since my fur on these guys will be grey, I'll just prime black. For me it's more about where I want to go with the model regarding warm or cold colors. For the moment I paint alot of wood elves. With alot of warm colors I like to start with a warm green or brown as base color. But when I start my WoC project (coming up later this fall) I will defintaly start with alot of black. Might even start with metall steel color

I primed my troops the other night. I used Rhinox Hide, thinking that it'd work well for my Rats, but it came out more black than brown and also had a bit of a chalky hew to it. I'll probably be sticking to black in the future.

I was able to finish these four rat swarms. I was glad to throw some paint on these guys and get them out of the way.

Well! So I just received this message from eBay:
We had to remove this listing from the site and you're not required to complete the transaction. If you've already sent payment, the sale should process as normal and you don't have anything to worry about. If you have any questions about delivery, please check tracking or contact your seller. If you run into any trouble along the way eBay is here to help. Please visit the Resolution Center to help resolve any problems you may encounter.
I did already pay for it, seeing as it was listed with a "Buy Now" option, which I utilized. I won't be surprised if the seller doesn't try to back out of it somehow or simply doesn't send it. It says the seller is no longer listed on eBay.
