[Dolchiate Remembrancer]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

out of likes :(

[KrautScientist]

Wonderful, simply wonderful! I love that lamp so much -- like a demonic anglerfish's lure...

[Montuhotep]

Mind. Officially. Blown.

 

That is all.

[chaplain mortis]

You should have left it at just being plastic/greenstuff...it now looks even more disturbing painted up lol

Love the work on the robes and that lamp...ewwwww

Good luck with your vows..you gonna be vowing the BIG demonette next?

[Squeaky]

Wow the flesh tones and just the obsidian/spectral looking glass shoulder/visor are amazing!!! (I would have liked it but... Ran out! IOU one like

[deathspectersgt7]

WOW !!! Blown away.

[disease]

your models are delicious

[daemonclaw]

wow thanx guys it looks like this fella didnt fall short.i just decided to do something different ,and am very pleased with the reaction as he is so far removed from a usual helbrute.

forte@ thanx man for your continued comments

 

chaplain_blackord@thanx that made me chuckle

 

krautscientist@ thanx thats what i was going for but didnt want it to overshadow the rest of the beastie

 

paladin7221@ thanx 

 

chaplain mortis @cheers dude,i think i needed this etl to push me to paint him or he would have stayed greenstuff like so many other ideas lol,and i have had the FW daemonette for a couple of years now so maybe she deserves to be in the next vow

 

squeaky@thanx glad you like the pads and faceplate ,i decided that since the whole idea of the helbrute was different ,i would try a new paint scheme,it was a gamble on a one off model but i think it works

 

deathspectersgt7@thanx brother

 

disease@thank you

heres a bit more work done on the arm this timehttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN9991_zps99d79f81.jpg

No problem about the comments at all. Your thread is inspirational.

 

And that is looking amazing. Great base too. No comment on the free hand as I'm too busy sulking on how good it looks.

 

Edit

Right. I'm officially confused now too. I saw your in progress Kakophoni in the ETL and you said "more pics in my wip". Can I find them...no! And they look great too (as always Mr Consistent).

[daemonclaw]

That one pic you posted looked really good. Especially the way you've done the material round the waists. I automatically went for flesh but now wish I went the route you seem to be going.

[daemonclaw]

thanx my man ,origionally i was going to go all flesh loincloths which is why two guys have got them but decided to add a bit of diversity

here belated are some other pix http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN9988_zpse3fe4ffb.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y30/daemonclaw/DSCN0003_zps7f7460cd.jpg

Can see you have a few areas where the resin is showing through. Apparently a bit of varnish can help with that.

 

Really liking the colour choices. Especially with all the little details on those things.

[daemonclaw]

yeah i saw them after i took the pictures and am redoing them now along with slaaneshy squirls and 3d battle damage ,thanx for pointing it out though cause its things like that can easily be missed

cheers 

[Forté]

More of your swirls. I'm jealous now.

[chaplain mortis]

Kakophoni looking great! Nice purple..shame they are not the 10k year old variety haha...good stuff!

[daemonclaw]

and now a question to the resin fans

i found that even with a thorough wash and basecoats i found that as i was painting these guys i kept rubbing paint off just by touching them .

is this something that happens ? or do i have to use gloves to stop the oils in my fingers reacting to the paint.

with the big models i did i used plasti-kote and didnt have a problem but am reluctant to use it on the smaller models as i dont want to obscure any small details.

any help would be greatly appreciated

cheers DC

I had a similar issue with areas on mine where the primer hadn't reached. I'd washed them in warm soapy water with a toothbrush to scrub everywhere. It was only a second spray aimed at the areas and a bit of brushed on varnish that did it.

 

I had read after that car primer (Halfords seen as you're in the UK) is pretty good and apparently what Forge World use most of the time.

 

As for handling. I put pins in my models now and attach them to corks so I rarely touch the model at all but still have a good hold on something.

 

The bases work really well to set them off. Lovely marble finish too. But what are they made from?

[daemonclaw]

thank you brother forte,your insight has been most helpfull.

it looks like i need to stop putting my grubby fingers on my models now

and have just picked up some varnish and plasti_kote primer so heres hoping

i will also take note of the second primer spray ,crazy i never thought of that

as for the bases it is just plasticard painted in irregular lines to imitate marble and then cut into squres and reassembled on the base in a more irregular pattern (and easier than bathroom tiling )

once again cheers for your help and comments

[deathspectersgt7]

Man I can not keep up, EC? did I miss something?the Sigils look sharp.

[Forté]

Cheers DC. It was the part where you cut the plasticard into squares that threw me. Marble I'm ok with ;)

[chaplain mortis]

Nice looking..did you steal bathroom tiles to make your bases hehe

Try airbrushing satin varnish on your models before priming..that should help

All looking good mate

[Dragonlover]

As I gazed upon the face of Chaos, there was a sound as of wailing and gnashing of teeth... from my wife, who officially wants to steal your hands when she starts her Thousand Sons. This whole thing is incredible. Any plans for a Heldrake?
