But then I wouldn't have them?

Then you wouldn't need to stress about scraping off the iconography - I'm just trying to help you

[Psychosplodge]

And you'd send them right back right?

[Wolfshade]

And you'd send them right back right?

Totes, I'd send those scrapings back

[Psychosplodge]

Seems legit, I'll get right on posting them. Armoured steel container and you'll sort the postage on arrival right

Progress report (of sorts)

Tactical Squad 5 - 5 x Primed, 5 x in brake fluid

Assault Squad 2 - Still to strip

Devastator Squad 1 - Primed & black
Devastator Squad 2 - Primed

So lots of progress, certainly more than the last time I decided to repaint.

Things what I learned:

- The [URL="https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Citadel-Mouldline-Remover"]mold removal tool[/URL] is really quite excellent and I look forward to using it on my Dark Vengance Marines soon
- [URL="http://shop.thearmypainter.com/products.php?ProductGroupId=15"]Army painter Pure Red[/URL] looks better on white then black or unpainted/stripped
- The [URL="https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Citadel-Palette-Pad"]Pallet pad[/URL] is not what I thought and so I am just using the lid from a takeaway as my pallet (seems fine and for the same price comes with free food)

It's not unheard of that many colours look a lot better over a white base than darker colours, unfortunately. Though, if you've got one, I use one of those clear CD-shaped pieces off one of those bulk stacks you buy.. you can take a moment and scrape it clean without much trouble in my experience.

And I understand the frustration of going into a repaint stretch.. I've got a decent sized marine collection with all manner of natures, and I just decided to turn them all over to Alpha Legion.. my CSM, my CA Marines, the Wolves I have, the DA I have, the BA I have.. gonna style them all as either Alphas or "stolen" units similar to their Tactical Flexibility option in 30K.

Disaster of disasters! I might be running out of prime.
This might slow down my progress somewhat.

Tactical 5 - all primed

Assault Squad 1 - In the fluid

Changed the fluid and I don't have quite enough fluid left to cover them all. Still 60 marines stripped in one tub not bad for £4 considering it would be £431 to buy fresh

[Psychosplodge]

£431?

[Wolfshade]

oops 331.

Assault squads are out.

Final tactical squad in the drink now.

You invested in an airbrush to do them all the same at once?
