winterdyne Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 The weathering on the chassis is all done, bar the dust / mud layer which will go on right at the end. I decided against oil washes at the last minute and decided to use simple spot washes with devlan mud, streaking by pulling the brush down. 'Rhynstetten' is a client request and is the current campaign for this army. This Land Raider, number four, currently attached to the deathwing is named 'Nathaniel'. http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9a.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9b.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9c.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9d.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9e.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9f.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9g.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP9h.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okidus Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 stunning. what color/colors did you use to weather the side hatches and ramp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted September 30, 2009 Author Share Posted September 30, 2009 Boltgun metal, devlan mud, VMC black. Elsewhere scorched brown as well. Metals are based on tin bitz, brought up to VMC natural steel via boltgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted October 1, 2009 Author Share Posted October 1, 2009 Updates - still some chipping and washing to do on the cannons. http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP10a.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP10b.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP10c.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_WIP10d.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeffWolf Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I think you'll produce a stunning army. you've certainly got the talent and i'd love to see more of your work. from what i'm reading not many people appreciate how much time, effort and skill you've undoubtedly put into it which is a shame. are you planning on doing anymore deathwing? i'd like to see at least the conversions on pg1 and a heavily converted "redemption" squad or something. (just a thought). how did you achieve such realistic weathering techniques? if you're willing i'd certainly love to hear from you about it. pm me ^_^ Deff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 The weathering is a combination of sponge and stipple techniques (both detailed in numerous places) and some very simple spot washes and blends with devlan mud. I wanted to use a technique that I could easily duplicate on the terminators themselves, which meant than salt chipping wasn't ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GumbaFish Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 This is shaping up very nicely, I rather like the green stripes it makes such a large surface much more interesting than if it had been just all white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashen-Shugar Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Some excellent work going on here. I just love seeing so much effort put into making a fully customisable mini, and the paint job really tops it off, even though its not finished.. BTW, what airbrush are you using? I need one to do my own tanks with but I don't want to dish out huge money needlessly... the one you're using seems to be what I'm after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 I'll refer you to this thread: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=164808 Which lists what equipment I use and the basic techniques. Note I use *VERY* thin paint for the filter passes that go over the preshade (which is thicker at around 2:1 water-paint). I also thinned my paints on this tank with windscreen wash on this job, just to try it. Works nicely. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stCoBattleBro Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sweet LR! Nice work on the interior, always nice to see the extra effort there as opposed to glueing everything shut. Can't wait to see more! *Edit - a big duh on my part ... posted the above only after reading the 1st page, then I read the 2nd ... the exterior is great! Great weathering! I need to get an airbrush ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 Land Raider's done, except for some filter dusting which will come after I've done all the terminators. http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/LR_done1000.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterdyne Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Some work on the commander, Belial. They green stuff'd panels have come out looking better than I expected. :-) The basecoat is a little thick. I'm hoping I won't have to strip it. :-| http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/Belial_WIP3a.jpg http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/Belial_WIP3b.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeller Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Beautiful work. There is just something right about seeing LC sponsons in the front and the detail paid to the LC cables is a great touch. On Belial, is that Deneb stone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Yeah. After using it to retouch the land raider it became apparent that it's pretty much the midtone of the preshade job. So I jumped straight to using it as a basecoat for the terminators. I'll apply very gentle glazes of the chocolate brown I used as a preshade to shade it down a bit, and devlan mud washes in the recesses. I'll highlight up by dusting with ivory.

Zeller Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 In the pictures about midway down the page showing the rough weathering it appears that you are stippling boltgun. Is this right? What happens after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted October 7, 2009 Author Share Posted October 7, 2009 On the bulk of it, it's just boltgun metal, sponged or carefully stippled, followed by spot and blended washes of devlan mud. That's it. Quick and reasonably effective, though not 100% authentic. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterdyne Posted December 18, 2009 Author Share Posted December 18, 2009 Got back onto this commission for a while - using the same technique as for the Ultramarines I'm doing (zenital pre-highlights with an airbrush) this is the resultant test fig for quality check purposes. I've had to use a blue background as my camera seems to complain with the low contrast against a white backdrop at night... He still needs a few touches here and there - highlighting the lenses, maybe a few spot washes. http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/turiel_wip.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 Finished off the first of the squads. These are fully magnetised, and will have alternate weapons fits available. http://www.winterdyne.co.uk/maz/images/commissions/deathwing1/deathwing_sq1_done.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
