I backed the Warmachine Tactics Kickstarter last summer. I was only mildly interested in the game, but I was very interested in the limited edition sculpts for he Journeyman Warcasters that were some of the rewards. I received my physical rewards a while ago, but just got around to building and painting Tristan Durant, the PoM journeman. He’s not bad looking and I think he’ll find a place in a couple of my lists. I’m looking forward to getting him on the table and seeing what he adds.
His base was my second try at using crackle paste for a desert base. It turns out that the first time I spread it a bit thin and it lifted from the bottom and may be a little fragile in the long run. This time I spread it a bit thicker. It still lifted, but was thick enough for me to glue back down. I like the desert look it gives for a fraction of the cost of resin bases. I also played with the airbrush to give it a bit different look.
I can see why you were interested in this model...it's awesome...and your paint job look great too!
