Yesterday I continued to paint the remaining of my Hackpaw regiment (fur and cloth already had receive a base layer). I expect to be able to finish the riders this week. I'll have to do intensive multibasing then.

Today I finished 3 riders. The 2 of yesterday plus another one.

Today I painted 2 more rat riders. A few more highlights are still required to finish them.

Yesterday I finished the multibase painting and glued the blight on it. I also painted one rider of my hackpaw regiment.

Today I base coated the multi base. It seems that 3 layer of diluted PVA glue is the requirement to get a smooth top surface.  I also continued to paint my hackpaw regiment. Even If not totally finished, I'm now confident they will get playable for the next tournament. As theirs giant rat mounts don't feel like "enough evil", I'm considering to print them some sharp armor piece. However, I have to be careful as the unit only have a 3+ defense which mean very light armor. I plan to try to print helmets such as the one held by the league of legend champion, marauder Alistar.

Yesterday I sealed the rocks on the multibase using another layer of diluted glue. My test with liquid greenstuff was a failure. Greenstuffed surface was very rough, and green stuff were almost totally removed when I tried to sand it. I also tried to use Game Workshop PVA instead of my wood glue, but while it dry faster, the glue also whitdraw away from the edges, which led to a partial cover of the base. I also started the base coat on my ratkin Hackpaws Regiment. I'll probably craft or print some horned helmet for the giant rodent to make them look a little more dangerous...

Today I applied the second layer of diluted glue on the regiment base. I will start to paint it tomorrow. As I finally get certain I'll play an Hackpaw Regiment, I let down the shock troop models I debased the last few days for later, and started to build up additional mounted rats. For now, I used some Halloween toys as mount for my Ratkin army's characters. Just have to put some normal warriors on top of them to get standard mounted Ratkins I guess... Here come one of the mounted enforcer I usually play :
