Agram Group Build Project #4 (part 6)

Marko Paunović, 2nd May 2022

In this series of articles, we will follow our Goran, Kruno, Dalibor, Nino, Jelena, Domagoj, Borna and Marko in making a diorama / game board for the side game Full Tilt from the '90s. The board and miniatures are part of the new UMS “Agram” project called Agram Group Build which was created so that more people could participate in one joint project at the same time and learn something with fun. No prior knowledge or experience is important. With our experienced miniaturists, everyone will learn something.

Although there was no plan to work on the terrain, Marko caught some time between instructions and put the base layers on the base. He started with a thatched roof on which he put a base coat of ocher paint and after drying put a wash of darker shades.

After that, he put the basic layers of paint on the texture of the earth, in two shades.

He was accompanied in the hobby section by Kruno, Bero, who came from Hamburg, and Jelena, who came from Seattle.

Bero was on the "receiving end" of the instructions and painted BB and Malifaux figures, Kruno cleaned the trees he swiped from Sljeme, and Jelena painted the audience for our project # 4.

In parallel with the hobby section, a demo was held at the Heavy Gear Blitz. Goran explained the basic rules of the game to Domagoj.

And during that time, 40k was played on the mezzanine!

If you are interested in participating, contact us at ums.agram@gmail.com! We meet every Wednesday from 18-22h in KD ZZTK on Trg žrtava fašizma 14.

	Like the previous two times, we started the last part of this tutorial by shaking the paint on a vortex mixer (colloquially called a jerkmeister).

	  

	This time we went through the topics of highlighting and layering. Basically, these are the same thing, because they are based on highlighting the more protruding parts of the miniature with gradually lighter colors in a smaller and smaller area, so that certain details of the figure attract attention.

	  

	It is not out of place to mention here, as this was Daniel's third painting lesson, that he had already mastered the strengthening of the hand, as well as the use of the stand for painting the figure.

	  

	With the colors Basic Flesh, Golden Skin and Light skin, he highlighted the bumps on the face.

	  

	He highlighted the golden metal parts with Viking Gold paint, although the lines are not thin enough, the author of these lines believes that he managed well, considering that it was the first time he did something like this, which counts as fine motor skills.

	Then he highlighted the metal details on the chains, paws and weapons with Heavy Metal paint.

	Finally, he used Deep Red and Antares Red to highlight the folds on the back of the cloak.

	  

	All in all, an interesting experience for me as a teacher, as well as for Danijela as a student. He was definitely interested in painting miniatures, however, due to the lack of space and time to pursue this hobby, that interest will wait for better days.

	In the hope that better days will come as soon as possible, I want to thank him for his teaching and patience, as well as for his time.

	Kao i prethodna dva puta, posljednji dio ovog instruiranja smo započeli protresanjem boje na vrtložnoj mješalici (kolokvijalno zvani drkmeister).

	  

	Ovaj puta smo prolazili kroz teme highlighting-a i layering-a. U osnovi su ovo iste stvari, jer se zasnivaju na isticanju izbočenijih dijelova minijature postepeno svjetlijim bojama na sve manjem području, kako bi pojedini detalji figure privukli pažnju.

	  

	Ovdje nije zgorega spomenuti, kako je Danijelu ovo bio treći sat bojanja, da je već dobro ovladao učvršćivanjem ruke, kao i korištenjem stalka za bojanje figure.

	  

	Bojama Basic Flesh, Golden Skin i Light skin je istaknuo izbočine na licu.

	  

	Zlatno metalne dijelove je istaknuo bojom Viking Gold, iako linije nisu dovoljno tanke, autor ovih redaka smatra da se dobro snašao, obzirom da je prvi puta ovakvo nešto radio što se ubraja u finu motoriku.

	Zatim je bojom Heavy Metal istaknuo metalne detalje na lancima, šapi i oružju.

	Naposljetku je na stražnjoj strani plašta bojama Deep Red i Antares Red istaknuo nabore.

	  

	Sve u svemu, interesantno iskustvo i za mene kao učitelja, kao i za Danijela kao učenika. Definitivno ga je zainteresiralo bojanje minijatura, međutim, zbog nedostatka prostora i vremena za bavljenje ovim hobijem će taj interes pričekati neke bolje dane.

	U nadi da ti bolji dani što prije dođu, želim mu se zahvaliti na učenju i pokazanom strpljenju, kao i odvojenom vremenu.

	I fixed five Space Marines on a wooden slat of approx. 40 cm length with patafix (six could have gone without any problems). In this way, I was able to apply the black spray primer to several figures at the same time and thus significantly speed up the preparation for painting.

	  

	Top Tip Plus: When you pick up bakery products yourself in supermarkets, don't throw plastic gloves in the trash! Use them to protect your hands when spraying the primer on the figures.

	Na drvenu letvicu duljine cca 40cm patafiksom sam učvrstio pet Space Marinaca (moglo je ići i šest bez problema). Na taj način sam mogao nanositi crni prajmer u spreju istovremeno na više figura i time osjetno ubrzao pripremu za bojanje.

	  

	Top Tip Plus: Kada u supermarketima sami uzimate pekarske proizvode ne bacajte plastične rukavice u smeće! Iskoristite ih za zaštitu ruku prilikom sprejanja prajmera na figure.
