Pyriel Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Finished after the jump chaplain. Also found this bugger lost in one of my bitz boxes. I remember having this mini bought cheaply from some guy but then the mini was over painted and quite ugly so I decided to speedpaint him up painting over the old colours along with the jump chaplain. I really love the mini though. You can see the sloppy paintjob being rushed here and there, I never gave the armour any attention what so ever so places like arms etc are butt ugly but I dont care, I love the mini anyway and he goes well with my termie firedrake squads. All the shooty termies are done now, will post pics a bit later. The only things I sculpted from scratch on this one is half the base and the combi flamer. The CF is a partial sculpt I made converting a bolter once. I grew to like my combi flamer and decided to cast it up at home and now I´m going to equip my army(ies) with about 15 of them, mostly on sternguards but also on a bunch of HQs and other elites. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1cm/chpt4.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1cm/chpt1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1cm/chpt2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyriel/1cm/chpt3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naysmith Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Horrible Paintjob! :lol: Id like to see a mini you just had time with to do a "good" paintjob. cya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyriel Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 Looks great. I'm curious, what is the process you use for the gold trim? Um, I think it is scorched brown and then adding golden yellow to eventually add white at the end of the highlite. The other gold I do is vallejo colours, chocolate brown with added yellow and white. A third more greenish gold (my favorite) is black and snake bite leather with yellow added and then white. Id like to see a mini you just had time with to do a "good" paintjob. Very well, here is an example of a mini when I have in excess of 50 hours to put into it. Also gold type 1 and 3 is seen on this one. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyr...ermie/test1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyr...Termie/test.jpg Another: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyr...iatures/11s.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Pyr...iatures/51s.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Of Malfeasance X Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Not only does that mini need a wheelbarrow to carry his balls around, but I am flattered beyond compare at your signature. Paint on! (edit) Holy :cuss , batman, I just noticed the crystals on the base. Whoah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potan Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 This is really awesome. Good colors and fantastic base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyriel Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 CMD: Been painting about I dont know, 7 years? But I paint very, very seldom these days, to busy sculpting stuff. Master of Malfeasance: Heh, that quote definately made my day, you should only know how close to the truth you are there :cuss Potan: Thanks dude. The base is a partial sculpt of mine and its actually painted by my gf, I am teaching her how to paint chrystals and lava and so far she hasnt disappointed me :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 just as awesome as your other minis :lol: I feel like it's lacking a few mushrooms though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burias-Drak'shal Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Fantastic model, and an equally good base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagrant Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 pyriel, i am always in awe of your models. i have been following your stuff for only a few months, but everything i have seen is amazing. you have a style all your own that i would love to be able to emulate.

Pyriel Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Sons of Horus: I figured one would be enough but then again you can never get enough mushrooms :P I know I know, I promised to make a mushroom and chrystal tutorial ages ago and I forgot. I am a very bad person. I´ll see if I can squeeze in a sculpt tutorial on how to make simple chrystals and mushroom bases that just about anyone can do at home. (just remind me if I forget again) Vagrant: PM me and I can give you painting help etc. Always fun to help people out with our shared hobby.
