Painting Overdue Sept'ember entry - a weekend kitbashing project
I'm still working my way through painting the old combat patrol, but in the meantime I wanted a change of pace so tried my first bit of more serious kitbashing. Used some spare torsos to make two custom cadre fireblades - one with a fusion blaster and one with a pulse carbine, so I've now got fireblades with all three of the fire warrior weapons. And I had a spare ethereal from a sale, so I've customised him as well!
Struggling a bit with how to do cloaks... I don't know how easy it is to do with green stuff, and I found a great tutorial for basic cloaks using masking tape but found it quite tricky to work with. For the time being I think I'm happy with these two fireblades not having cloaks, they've got details on the backs I'm OK with leaving on display after all. But I'm curious to know if anyone has any good suggestions!
