tagsta Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 It looks fantastic. The metals and the blue look really smooth. But Ganuus is right, something needs to balance out the yellow. I'm not sure what it is, whether you need more or less yellow elsewhere on the model... But if you can figure that out it'll be pretty much perfect. That was the shot I've been waiting for. It looks ace, man. Though I would have to say do something to even out the yellow balance. Make something on it's left yellow, or repaint the Plasma Blaster. I just think that it makes it off, and takes away from the head. did a test fit with the paper banners enough compensation? http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/warhound2-1.jpg May I request on how you did the yellow? I am going to be painting a tad, and I'm in search for the easiest/best way to paint it! Thanks! white undercoat. 1-2 layerrs of yellow ink followed by 1-2 layers of vallejo bad moon yellow cheers =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ganuus Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I assume since he's using Bald Moon Yellow from Vallejo, he's likely using Vallejo's Yellow Ink as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavaman Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Nice work :) How was the fit & amounts of flash on the model? I've got one of these badboys here and one whole side was out by a massive 30mm, i can only put it down to some numpty at forgeworld not letting it cure fully before removing from the mold.... makes me wanna go down there and commit murders. whats the diameter of the base btw? i've just ordered one @ 13'' hopeing it'll be good. one more thing... what have you done with the eyes? / windows on the thing? are they in, i can't really tell. i'm thinking to try and tint mine a rich yellow colour so anyone who can advise of a technique for this, i'd be gratefull Lavaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(snip) Lavaman With a miscast like that you need to call Forge World customer service... ask for Simon. Calling from the US you would dial 011441159168177. Not all cells go international but it works on mine. You can also e-mail them with a pic of the miscast part (again attn Simon K.) and they should take care of it. I have been buying from them since 2000 and they really will make it right. Sinsinatus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
