The Red Duke Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Wh hasn't anyone commented these? The painted one is really great, how did you do the NMM? hoping that the rest comes out as good One more thing, the highlight on the sword hilt is rather thick.

aNex88 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 That GKT is really awesome. Love the NMM you did on it. Only thing I got to say is that the scribbles on the purity seals seem a bit thick, but having thinner scribbles is just my preference. Besides that, awesome job.

Brother Tual Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 cheers - I will layer it in a bit more - To be honest - I was starting to rush it a bit on the sword.. The NMM on the gold or greys? The gold is a cheat - I can do it properly but it takes alot longer for me.. http://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p449/brother_tual/IMGP0746.jpg The gold is a mix colour based on shining gold - I added browns and yellows with a bit of green till I got a brass colour that is not so metallic.. I just highlight it with bleached bone and work it down with babdad black wash (watered down a bit) and just reverse layer/blend/tone it.. then touch up the edges with bleached bone again and a touch of white here and there.. the sword hilt got a bit too much on the go over.. The grey is not really NMM - I didnt follow any real principles except for on the sword.. Its all just blending dark grey through to light grey and a white highlight.. I worked my babdad black magic on some parts that were too bright and left the legs a little darker - The red is what really worked out well beyond my expectations.. thats just red gore glazes on layered grey with blood red blended on the edges..

ben rolls Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 what a gorgeous mini! wish i was half as good as that. how long have you been painting? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160536-gkt/#findComment-1883815 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Tual Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 the scribbles on the purity seals seem a bit thick noted - I will try harder ... I find my paint dries way too fast.. I might add a bit more water to my mix and do it ttwwiiccee to get finer lines.. Umm - not too long, I started playing Nov 06 - so around then.. I collected when I was younger - second ed - but I only have un painted models with missing arms and stuff and damaged codex/books with pages missing - i must have been a prat.. I paint in stints (normally just before a tourney! - which I have next week - and then two in april... but I will use the same list for all three I think...) so, on average, I would paint two models a month, if that... I have about 60 painted models? 30 tacticals - 10 scouts + various tanks and dreads + characters.. have a look at the UM forum or the hall of honour for my latest UM...

KJB Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Love the red on the storm bolters - I have 2 Terminators left to paint and 8 power armour Knights... This might be the inspiration I need to get off my ass and get them finished! As for the purity seals, I got some incredibly fine tipped art pens and have been using them, bit easier than the brush/paint method Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160536-gkt/#findComment-1883829 Share on other sites More sharing options...
