Well, I've been taking some times from continuing my painting works. Finally arriving on the end of September, I managed to finished another batch. This time it's Guttripaz squad from Kruleboyz. This batch still pose a challenge for myself. The numerous details of the figure put quite a load into my works. Also dealing with 10 small-sized units is much burdensome compared to 5 medium-sized units.

This batch is actually my 2nd batch. Previously I made a batch of Guttripaz which took quite some time with all those consideration. Polishing highlight into the intricate detail of each units is very time consuming, and I don't think I attained my expected result. The 2nd batch also still put some burden, but I'm able to pick up my pace better. But putting a neat highlights is still quite a challenge. I think that I will need to do a 3rd batch to finally reached my expected result. So here's my paint works progression! ![Warhammer Banner.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/23t7BM3tHfn9QrRVzMeKnADp42cJUbfQzq6YjtboY5pjVMmenXRDvzeJLar172omxtapq.png) I started the work by stroking the base colors which is Orruk Flesh for the skin, and Mephiston Red for the shield (as usual Abaddon Black make my primer color). ![IMG_20230709_135703.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/750x750/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/23xAVU43k18QwMMQkSMYdS7xf9tYuAbkjiLLDMZ7NpsmYBzRVGsgc4DVZB1hTfSYxsZ5W.jpg) ![IMG_20230709_135640.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/750x750/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/23yJEhTCgMx87Q4JPixbZokHzd6jStgVyYkSd1ZsMP6taLyVVNYZEWSYFfADsX2EnUZdh.jpg) Then I continue to put Rhinox Hide into the ragged clothes, and Leadbelcher to fill the helmet and blade of the spear. To bring variation, I choose to use Weapon Bronze from Army Painter to color the pauldron instead and also the rivet and spike in the shield. ![IMG_20230709_135557.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/EpGU4iTuFj23pPNKPH7bYWii4w8NM5qUqwwtJVA3cx6e1jkD67s3jKc3HBFDWW4LPW1.jpg) To assert the details. I use Doombull Brown to color the lashing between the ragged clothes. And then Steel Legion Drab which is more of saturated-greenish-brown to color the armband rope. Mournfang Brown color the pole of the spear.

The next step is putting a Wash into the whole recess of the minis, which I still found difficulty. I use Agrax Earthshade which is more of blackish shade to cover the entire miniatures. Literally the entire surface! This cause my minis to lose its vibrant color which I think is a mistake, and then I have to repaint several parts to keep vibrant color on most seen parts. Without sufficient control, Wash could left behind some patchy color which is not expected; and yet its very difficult to control the flow of Wash which is least viscose. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/23wMgk9eZSJwsa7ob3FXKQf8wPxfZMpxLgPrCmFJ8P8zuuHvESNkEPcKUec2o96bFs8Jj.png) And on the final steps, I put Astrogranite Technical for the base. And for the final touch I put highlight to the skin using Niblet Green Dry. And here finally I managed to finished all the 10 minis with all the necessity details. ![20230918_234153.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/EpC9zeHHkKiwwc1YjaYRqqm6i9QYuqnQQQUFDQRL7neitxFf4YBUCRjZcikZejjs9hS.jpg) ![20230918_234732.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/EoyPUN9rUJcWs1DBp1QAwVHMVxV6XdWV8cfyX6woZka3wSUCY94rkFN9mNdw8jxtfoA.jpg) ![20230918_235054.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/Ep5mkmDuWRTzga58w98YGhqxK7BLZ7o1z1e4Vq2QeRNRDySxRnym6etdydHCkNiXKEW.jpg) ![20230918_235022.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/EowG2TRkzKszfyCasrX3bG9NLnv69QGLbd15ucDWgoUi76axkb2C4yytGcvZURFHXbd.jpg) ![Warhammer Banner.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kid.miniatures/23t7BM3tHfn9QrRVzMeKnADp42cJUbfQzq6YjtboY5pjVMmenXRDvzeJLar172omxtapq.png)
