Rescuing a Loonboss From Mushroom to Mushroom 🍄 🍄 🍄

  • Welcome to another miniature rescue! This week I take a relatively well priced Loonboss and give it a grimdark overhaul! This model came out, only a couple of years ago, for Warhammer Age of Sigmar, specifically the Gloomspite Gitz army. I have a deep love of the greenskins and have been wanting to paint more, I mean, let's be honest, I'd paint all things greenskins literally every day if I had a choice (don't I?). Anyways, this model is fantastic, and I wanted to do something with this new one that was a departure from what I've done in the past. I am really happy with the way he turned out and I'm sure he will fit into a Gloomspite collection nicely!
    If you're into it:
    As a side note, this video was put on TH-cam in the 16:9 aspect ratio, I'm doing a little experimenting with different sizes right now and I want to see the good and bad things about each aspect ratio. I was under the impression that TH-cam supported 16:9, but they don't, so no end screen, but, it should look really nice on widescreen monitors and get you full screen on phones and tablets. Pretty neat.
    Thank you very much for the support, I am extremely grateful and cannot begin to tell you how much these auctions push this channel forward. Thank you!

    Enjoying these rescue videos. The time saved is probably a wash as it takes time to scour ebay for used models as well as the cost of stripping equipment chemicals etc. but there if there is joy in rescuing a model that should be weighed in too. The content created also adds value as well.

    To add advice when buying minis on Ebay: take the time to compare the pictures of it with the pictures on GW's webshop. Sometimes people try to pull a sneak and do not write that the model is incomplete. I only noticed AFTER I bid on a Necron Triarch Stalker that it was missing it's weapons. Luckily for me, someone outbid me.

    Fantastic! I just stumbled upon your channel and as a person who is just getting into the hobby of painting miniatures I appreciate the fact that you point out where you made mistakes and what you did to overcome them. More often then not I find that people get discouraged too easily and have a false impression that they are the only ones who make mistakes. It’s a valuable lesson to know that everyone makes mistakes and it’s how we overcome them that makes us a better builder/painter. Thanks for sharing!

  • @rossvolkmann1161
    @rossvolkmann1161 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just want to say that I really appreciate that you went to google to look at images for inspiration. We all stand on each other's shoulders in advancing the art form and I think the 'research' phase needs to be acknowledged as a normal part of the process. I do this all to time to find things that have been done (or not done yet) and it's important to show to aspiring painters.
