Mr. Nipples Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 The test mini, basically just the armor eg: rust and scratches is done. Just finishing up the scheme for the main armor, and damage. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1528.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1529.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1530.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1531.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1532.jpg Mandatory FLUFF: basically they are nurgly warband, established a long time ago, they dont care at all about their armor so its old and rusty and chipped, all they care is it works. The Rhinos are numbered for each squad they belong too, 1 being the oldest in service so that will be the most battle damaged and so on. you can see the paint factory I have going on, I have one more rhino not pictured for a total of 5. and a predator. The Baneblade will be next. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1501.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1506.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1505.jpg These still need to get the rustyness added. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1502.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1503.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1504.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1507.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1508.jpg C@C pleeease.

Metal Fingered Villain Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I still think they need some brighter shines to em, some white highlights thrown in here and there, they are too monocrhomatic. Something is needed to make me pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wokkers Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 i *love* that rust effect. its looks very good. my only crit would be the highlights - but as you have already pointed out, they are not done yet. Could you give a brief tute on how the rudt effect was achieved. In particular, in this model: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1503.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matador Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v218/JasonHeuser/DSCF1505.jpg Did you use coffee for the rust technique? No really, I am diggin' the work you've started on these. Always look forward to your posts. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Nipples Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 H I actually used a method involving Marmite. its quite nasty, but it works very well. I can post a tutorial on the new rhino im doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metal Fingered Villain Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 you basically just basecoat the rhino in the rust color, then spread the marmite on where there will be rust spots then paint around it with the actual and then, when the marmite is washed off the rusty splotches will remain.

wokkers Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 marmite? thats incredible! hmmmm.....i wonder if vegemite will work the same way :D at any rate i will look forward to the tute. thanks in advance mr nipples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firestorm40k Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 HI actually used a method involving Marmite. its quite nasty, but it works very well. I can post a tutorial on the new rhino im doing. Yes please; I for one would really appreciate seeing this step-by-step :) marmite? thats incredible! hmmmm.....i wonder if vegemite will work the same way ;) Apparently you can; Sheep from Warseer & The ammobunker forums uses it on his tanks to get his weathered effects :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryppers Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I believe the principle works like this; http://www.brushthralls.com/Old/BattleDamage2/index.php I recognised the technique as soon as I saw it, but.. Marmite? I would never have suspected it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SquigBait Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I have done similar things with some of my IG tanks (yeah I know, heresy as this is a power armor board) utilizing rubber cement. Basically I undercoat it with either bare metal or rust depending on the age of it, then randomy daub on the rubber cement on areas of damage and high wear, let that dry then finish up painting the rest of the model as I usually would. Before the finishing washes and whatnot I rub my finger over the areas with the rubber cement and it pulls up in that wonderful chipped and worn paint pattern. Quick, easy, and relatively painless.

Mr. Nipples Posted August 31, 2008 Author Share Posted August 31, 2008 Hopefully when I get home from work tongiht my rhino will be ready for the onslaught. I found some rhinos in an old box and this one is like 5 years old so the painting and conversion work is terrible. The best way is to strip what I can and make it the most weathered tank I have. For that I will make the tutorial should be around here in the next few days. MFV has the basic Idea with his description though. aioannou-Yeah school starts on tuesday, college though back for my senior year in art school. emperor's hand-Ill post a pic of my army when its nearing completion I just basically started painting it mostly.
