Captain Herminius of the Steel Scorpions

Recommended Posts

Firstly, thanks to everyone who has commented on my Scorpions so far especially Ah-Shaulah!

 

Terran born, Captain Herminius was the sole survivour from the 1st company squads during the Battle for the Undying Faith. Carried back to the last thunderhawk by Ancient Horatius, Herminius made a full recovery and was promoted to Captain of the fourth company of the Steel Scorpions.

 

Hope you all like him, C&C welcome but please remember he's only tabletop quality.

Also, which head is that? The conversion is very nice. Good work.

The head is part of the original Veteran model that makes up the majority of the Captain, the wreath and plume are plastic (the latter coming from the Dire Avengers box - not sure where the wreath is from though).

Wow thanks everyone i've not had comments that positive before.

 

This type of metal is really really easy. Start from a black undercoat and heavy drybrush (or just paint it) of Botgun Metal. Then just use a heavy wash of Badab Black, don't even water it down. If you want to go a step further then highlight with chainmail.

 

I'm all for short cuts when painting a whole army quickly. My gold is just painted with the old shining gold then given a flesh wash. I think you can still get the gold but i hink it's been renamed. If anyone knows what it is then please let me know.

 

Command squad is in the process now so stay tuned!
