Granite Guardians (Repaint Obsidians Guards)
Hello there fellow scapers! I've been looking through a ton of threads on here and I couldn't find anything kind of guide to repainting obsidian guards into granite guards
Could anybody point me in the right direction to finding a thread or guide to this repaint? Custom cards and AotP Customs! https://www.heroscapers.com/communit...87#post2144287 Custom Jungle and Painted Hives https://www.heroscapers.com/communit...ad.php?t=50108 |

Re: Granite Guardians (Repaint Obsidians Guards)
Just to be sure, you do know that you can just buy Granite Guardians right? You don't have to repaint anything yourself if you don't want to.
I don't know of any guides, but to get a basically accurate paint job I'd go with. 1. Paint the OGs a medium grey color. 2. Paint the crystals/flames a dark green. 3. Give the whole thing a black wash. 4. Go back and highlight/touch up with the first 2 colors as needed. My Repaints and Mods: Updated 1-13 My Custom Cards: Updated 4-15 My Custom Superheroes: Updated 1-13 My figure images for online games: Alliance figures, Utgar figures My Etsy Store |

Re: Granite Guardians (Repaint Obsidians Guards)
I was thinking about doing the same thing a while ago since I had only 1 squad of OG and just 2 of the GG. But I ended up picking up a 3rd squad of GG at a tournament so my OG are still red. I'm really glad I didn't go through with it as the OG are worth a whole lot more that the GG. I'd recommend hitting up the trade thread to see is someone would trade you some GG for OG's. With 6 squads of OG you have enough to spare for a trade and should be able to get back more GG than OG in any deal. So instead of painting 3 OG into 3 GG, you might be able to trade 6 OG for 9-12 GG.

Re: Granite Guardians (Repaint Obsidians Guards)
Hey, I think I have some extra GGs.
Would you like to trade GGs for the OGs? |

Does anyone have a picture of their backs they can post. I have some resin duplicates that were 3-d printed, but I don't know what to paint green on their backs. Every image I can find on the web is of their front.

Re: Granite Guardians (Repaint Obsidians Guards)
It’s kind of a pain to put pics on here but it’s pretty straightforward so I’ll just tell you. First one. Big belly chonky guardian has a tuft at the base of the back of the neck, the only other spot is on the lower left elbow visible from the front. The medium waist sized dude has no foliage on the back side. Just the stuff seen from the front that wraps around a little. The skinny waisted one only has one tuff on the backside of his right elbow. That’s pretty much it. There isn’t a lot going on, on the backside of the models. Good luck and happy painting.
