amazing work you have here...

 

i love the understated look to these models..very crisp, very clean with just the right amount of detail painted to each model to make them look interesting!

 

good to see that you have kept the deathwing armour very crisp bone white...i.m.o the way deathwing should look!

 

cant say enough about the quality of the landraider...its awesome, for me thats a 10 for the paintjob!

 

great work and cant wait to see more

I see stuff like this and it makes me feel >< that small about my own abilities... but then I feel that I can learn a great deal from how you have done the weathering and highlighting. It's something I really want to add to my work but it's something I find scary. Ah screw it, I'll add it to one of the lists of things I will just get on and do this year that I've put off in other years. Great work, very inspirational and I really enjoyed seeing the work evlove. Please show more.

Amazing work! The modular design on the weapons sponsons really catches my attention. Would love to see a few pics of the Land Raider with the Hurricane Bolters and Assault Cannon mounted!

 

The client's only got the one land raider in this commission; but it was the idea that if he got another 'raider or the upgrade set he could have a choice of weapons.

 

The white is actually really easy; it's not white. The main colours are deneb stone and VMC ivory; with spot washes of devlan mud to shade.

For the terminators, it's deneb stone airbrushed over black, with increasing amounts of VMC ivory. Finally, spot washes of devlan mud are used for deep shaded before VMC ivory, deneb stone and black are used to smooth it off and blend new highlights where needed.

 

I used a dual action AB-130 type airbrush for the land raider. I wouldn't like to try preshading with the citadel gun, although it'd be ok, if a little awkward mix-wise for the zenital work as on the terminators.

Spent the morning so far taking some nicer photos of the Land Raider and some consistent photos of the terminators to shove up on my blog:

Did the banner on Belial yesterday.

Done as a conversion of a standard Terminator Captain metal miniature. The metal figure is substantially smaller than the modern plastic Terminators, so he's been mounted on a largish piece of slate to bring the height up a bit. Combined with the banner he's imposing enough. The robe and heraldry has been sculpted with greenstuff. The skull on the banner pole was also sculpted, to cover where the feet of the Eagle that was removed from the pole were.

This was a fun commission, although I'm going to resist the urge to say 'hey let's magnetise everything' to a client again. It's a lot of work.
