Vadskær Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Good evening Chaps :-)Well, kinda scratched the diorama I mentioned above. I couldn't get the base to fit the two models as I wanted, and it really took a lot away from both of them, as they really stand out when viewed from the right angle, but not so much only from the side on. So, here they are, both of them, but separate:Ultramarines 4th Company Captain and Dark Vengeance Chaos Cultist Both fun to paint, no conversion work at all! I kept the Space Marines base quite simple, as there was quite a lot going on already. The Cultist got a little more elaborate base to complement his muted color scheme. Enjoy :-) /vadskær http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6505_zpspkgwpntn.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6509_zpsw5lyxulc.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6515_zpsjav44pl8.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6539_zpsfcd3mys0.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6527_zps9cxjlkeg.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6534_zps2fwxhb8y.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6479_zpstojc60cr.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6484_zpsarz2e8do.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6491_zpszpeqlcrj.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6495_zpsoptbw8sa.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6499_zpsxnbwtcti.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vadskær Posted July 31, 2016 Author Share Posted July 31, 2016 Lo and behold, for I have returned yet again :-DHey Guys! Again a very long break from anything productive. Exams and tons of work killing time and energy for painting. However, managed to finish two little beauties, the first of which I'll present below. This Deathwing Terminator was a pleasure to paint. Tried out a tad bit darker bone color, to get the contrasts of the highlights to show up more. I think he ended up being quite okay, considering I'm a bit rusty in the painting-proficiency these days. Enjoy! /vadskær http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6544_zpssgn3n4rx.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6549_zpsuvrpnwdf.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6556_zpskfun2yfy.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6568_zpsqpdabybb.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6574_zpskvp3jpwg.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6578_zpsx2glzxqb.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6583_zpsijvtqznd.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoULyons Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 @MosesGunn - thanks a bunch man, glad you like them :-) Alright chaps, here he is: The meanest, angriest and bad-ass Interrogator Chaplain - Asmodai :-) Finally finished. The sculpt is fantastic, but oh boy Finecast is a miserable piece of crap to work with! So may flaws that I lost count - some of which you couldn't correct without scraping off some of the very brittle detail. Not a pleasure to work with no Sir'e! Enjoy - over and out :-) /vadskær http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_5012_zps22d9cc22.jpg How'd you do the robes on this guy? I've been trying different colors and can't seem to get a nice look like this. These models are all fantastic btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I start out from a black undercoat, then do a Khemri Brown basecoat over several layers, and from there just begin to mix in Ushabti Bone, working my way up to pure ushabti bone. The shades are thinned washes of Agrax Earthshade and seraphim sepia. I begin to highligt it from Screaming skull, adding in white scar over a few mixes until i get the effect I desire. Often less white on a robe than on a DeathWing Terminator armor. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vadskær Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Goodmorning Chaps, Whilst painting in full speed on a Space Wolf, I finished my base for the Ultramarine Suzerain. So here he is in all his show-off-amour-glory. It's interesting to shift from the new GW plastic sets, which are fantastic, to Forgeworld resin, which is also fantastic, but, dare I say it, are loosing the battle of the best quality sculpts to plastic! /vadskær http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6620_zpsp6o06okc.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6593_zpszhxiu6kr.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6600_zpscjwyigzl.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6606_zpsrh3zz1b7.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6612_zpsyegchu9x.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6615_zpskvvnsvhq.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vadskær Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hello Chaps, Hope you're enjoying the weekend. I know I am - and I finished this little beauty last night. It was a pleasure to paint, and the myriad of details, different textures and objects made it a fantastic project. Very pleased with the outcome. Enjoy my version of Ulrik the Slayer :-) /vadskær http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6627_zpstbjq0du4.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6633_zpsuaebnbzc.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6638_zpsyqlmqyfi.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6642_zpsheem3dcl.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6648_zpsvfy7drqz.jpg[/url] http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6657_zpshxhtijro.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot for the kind comments Guys! :-) Much appreciated. Good evening Chaps. I must say I'm in love with the new Deathwatch Space Marines! They are wonderful in their detail and offer so much to a painter. Here's my first of the batch :-) I'm heavily inspired by Paul Norton (check him out on Instagram or Facebook) and his style of painting, which is some of the very best I've ever seen. /Vadskær http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6688_zpsoa5pdb56.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6689_zpsofq0oyxr.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6694_zpsuy9uklnc.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6703_zps0m77iwat.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6707_zpsvbisjq17.jpg http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/t410/vadskaer/IMG_6713_zpsjuejtbg7.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothical Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 What colours are you using for the blues on the Invictus Suzerain from August? It's a really interesting tone, especially with the bronze/brass trim (and if you could share your recipe for that too I'd be grateful). I've been unsure about those models myself, having only seen them on the Forge World website, but you have convinced me that they look stunning. Great work. The basing on Ulric and the Deathwatch Marine are fantastic, the tone really helps set the model and they are interesting enough to not be boring but not so busy as to detract from the model itself.
