Advice on colour scheme


Recommended Posts

Hello!

 

My future army will be for Grandfather Nurgle, so I have done some quick colour schemes.

Plz give me some c&c on the ones I have done, they are just very rough at this stage.

The 'GreyUncleanOne' is the best out of those shown, but I have a new scheme for you to try...

 

1. Spray Black.

 

2. Proceed to paint all the power armor, and all the details on the power armor, white. Leave the trim black.

 

3. Heavy, heavy wash of Devlan Mud.

 

4. Paint the trim Catachan Green, as well as some of the tubes and the upper portion of the backpack (the lower portion of the backpack was supposed to be painted as the power armor was.) Also paint bolter casings Catachan Green

 

5. Paint Chainmail onto the metallics. First give a Badab Black Wash, and after it dries a Devlan Mud wash to the metallics.

 

It's a really cool scheme, I think you should try it and see if you like it. I'll try and post pics for you later.

quick advice - i wouldn't buy a new camera, as the current one seems to have fine depth and color - rather I'd invest $20 in a tripod and, if your camera doesn't have self-timing, a remote. even on a tripod, the pulse in your hand can shake the camera, the act of pushing the button, as well as the flip of the shutter (if it's SLR) or even nearby footsteps. To me it doens't look like you have a bad camera, it looks like it shook while you were shooting.

Ah,so thats the problem then,I have a tripod but have to try out the self-timing then.

 

Thx for the good advice, never thought that was the problem.

Did some work on my photography skills :Troops: (thx to Iron Phoenix) better pictures, but daylight is gone so the colours seems a bit off.

Anyway looks like I have a long way to go to improve my photo skillz...
