Muller Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 I succumbed... I bought GW's hand flamer spray thiny today when I was buying my 9 year old brother his christmas present (not going to wreck havoc for my parents whom will have a living hell trying to get "Midvintersblotet" out of his head if I introduce him to pagan history/etc. now ), which is a Black Templars Codex. So now I'll be able to paint these in bulk, they will still get the same amount of time, but I won't have to spend so much time mixing the colors correctly over and over again. By this weekend I should have another one finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Noble Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 How about a paiting recipe? Thanks! -J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muller Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 The original recepie for painting these guys isn't mine, I got it from this guy. Mine contains less grey and more brown though. Which can be seen comparing our minis :) But yeah, originally I have taken his basic 3 first steps and then adding more washes than he does to get a more brown-ish and weathered look. (And I don't paint battle damage, personally I like to actually scratch the model where i would want battle damage and then paint it black and metal. A tutorial for the snow, the blood and the wolf colors will be up along with the next figure (sometime this weekend hopefully) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 they look great and I totally agree with you about what GW did with the new SW hair. most of the new heads GW designed look more like they belong in a empire fantasy army or to some vagabonds in mordenhiem. I will do what you did and GS some hair onto them myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessisbest Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hey, those models look pretty good! :) Oh, and I agree with you on the somewhat "hobo-ish" look, but it adds to the SW's coolness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muller Posted January 2, 2010 Author Share Posted January 2, 2010 I've been gone for 2 weeks, spent some quality time around different places here in Sweden. Enjoyed some nice game hunting, and just enjoyed the snowy outdoors in general. But now I'm back and I've been working some on my 2nd space wolf. He's far from finished and I'm veeery uncertain on the wolf pelts' colors. I've also bought myself a Vindicator which will get some heavy work eventually. Anyway, here's the Grey Hunter, when he's pretty much done I'll do the blood on him and then also toss up the blood tutorial at the same time. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolfPIP005.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolfPIP004.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolfPIP003.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muller Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 Alrighty, today I was SUPPOSED to study, but well, that went out of the window and in flew a cold harsh breeze. That's right, I'm pretty much finished with my 2nd wolfy. I redid all pelts, and finished them off with a nice bright contrasting red (this model will be the centerpiece in his pack). I then finished off the skulls mounted onto the chainsword and the bolter, and when I was in the 7th layer I discovered that the tan i was working with was not Bleached Bone, but Kommando Khaki -Nice surprise! (That's why it looked so darn dark, luckily for me I felt it looked better that way than by using the same bright color I use on the ornate Bolter Wolfhead decorations on other marines)... I still haven't decided if he will get black or blond hair, his base is already done so all needed is the blood effects on his chainsword (which I'll do after the hair) and then he's done. http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7026.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7027.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7028.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7029.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7033.jpg I also finished my Wolf Priest (building/sculpting) today since I got the top of the staff I needed in the mail yesterday.. I removed that pesky hourglass and replaced it with more furry godness ;) http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7003.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7004.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP7005.jpg Comments and Criticism wanted and appreciated as usual.

Dorns Padawan Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Love the paint job there dude!!!! Love the colours of the armour & the white faces certainly give them a real daemonic look! Some nice free-hand on the cloak as well :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muller Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 A little update: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/Completed%20Wolves/Wolfguard001.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/Completed%20Wolves/Wolfguard002.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/Completed%20Wolves/Wolfguard005.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/Completed%20Wolves/Wolfguard006.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Lookin' great man! I'd love your recipe for the gore, that looks awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall_Brant Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I'm digging the Corpse Painted faces. Might have to steal that for my 13th company. IMO the armour could benefit from being smoothed out. It just looks a wee bit rough. Also maybe a highlight of skull white on the teeth as well just so they don't look like their wood. My 2 cents ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muller Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 The paint is very smooth IRL, it's the camera that junks up the pics colorscale (I'm down to using my compact digital instead of my Canon SLR), I'm sorry for that (And my dalight bulb recently busted so I'm forced to use a warm light one fot the photos ATM). The recepie for the gore is in my minis blog (see my link in my sig here). EDIT Some better pics that shows how the armor looks (though, not on this model): http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolf002-1.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/SpaceWolvesWIP2Done190Done007.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/IMG_4830.jpg http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/SWE_BadAss/Space%20Wolves%20WIP/IMG_4832.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
