I'm quite fond of them, myself ;). Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/183265-complete-zerker-squad/#findComment-2167526 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Ah... renegades- what are they called? I was initially confounded by the sight or IW Beserkers. But they look nice. Good table top minis. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/183265-complete-zerker-squad/#findComment-2167579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakiq Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Looking really nice there, the blood in combination with the dark metal gives a suitably gritty effect. @ Grey Mage: My awsome psychic powers tell my that their name is Iron Grasp. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/183265-complete-zerker-squad/#findComment-2167592 Share on other sites More sharing options...

StratoKhan Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 I like the different colour scheme, it makes a good change to red. The half-bionic sergeant head you used looks great there, almost as if the model's face was being eaten away by daemonic metal. I think that a few washes on the metallics followed by some more highlighting would really improve the look of your troops, I did this when I painted my WHFB Empire Knights and it looked a lot better once I added dark and light spots consistently. The bown inner pad could do with some dark lining around the edges of the pad rim, if you find it hard to do with a brush, a sepia or black fineliner felt-tip pen (0.1 or 0.05 mm) is easy to use and once you dull down the shine with a light wash, it looks nice. Also, I must admit to not being totally convinced by the blood effects on the weapons. Here's an excellent blood effects tutorial from the Librarium, you might not want to spend more money on the Tamiya red, but maybe you can use it as a level of realism to aspire to. If you do a fair bit of Khornate stuff I'd say it's worth investing in that Tamiya pot.

Gv0zD Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Nice work! I really like the uncommon look of your zekers - silver instead of red, no bunny ears, they look .... a bit 'fresh' B) Really, it's a good squad you have! But I have one little comment - as StratoKhan said, the blood on their weapons could a bit more eloquent. Make red more dark and thick, so it would achieve more gore-look.

For the blood affect, I used Tamiya Brand Clear Red paint, that I mixed with a bit of black ink. Tamiya is a thicker, congealing paint, that provides a very realistic and rich gore effect. Cheers.

If you want to achieve the dark red like on my mini, you will need to mix some black ink into the red (just play around until you get the right shade). However, note, you want to use black 'ink' not 'paint'. If you use paint, it will reduce the wet-look and make it a duller color, which is not desireable. Ink, however, does not do this.

Dammeron Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 A very unusual and very effective way of painting Khorne Berserkers. The novel paint scheme and the simple conversions make for some very characterful models. I imagine it'll look great when applied across an entire army.
