Chaplain Desmodus Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Phew, they're all done, finally. Took me a while, but that's what being a father does to your hobby, kids. :tu: Next up are the 22 stealers from Space Hulk. I'll rush them, hopefully I'll have them playable by March 27, when it's game-time for me. So here are the pictures, comments and questions are welcome as always. -_- Follow this link for some detail pictures of Sgt Lorenzo, posted earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Fury Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Fantastic! Really very nice looking, and I really like that red. -Fury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJB Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Beautiful work as always, was expecting to see them painted Flesh Eaters when I clicked on the topic though... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Gorgeous. I like these better than the studio paintjob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraRich Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Great stuff. Im working through mine and know the joy and pain of these models. I know what you mean about trying to paint while been a father! On the plus side my 2 1/2 year old has picked up a brush and started painting some of my older figures. (this involves dunking the brush to the bottom of the pot and covering the figure) Keep up the good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxsterling Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Flat out righteous. I hate looking at peoples' awesome Space Hulk models because it reminds me I don't have a copy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Claissen Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 As usual, perfect model. With the hardest colors to paint, like yellow or red, you always get a perfect finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Desmodus Posted March 11, 2010 Author Share Posted March 11, 2010 Thanks for the positive feedback so far. ;) Personally, I'm especially happy with the cracked cruxes (Charadon Granite, shaded with Badab Black and Devlan Mud, highlighted by adding Astronomican Grey to Charadon Granite), the gems (Liche Purple, Warlock Purple, then WP + Skull White) and the worn metal (all kinds of metallics and shades). Well, the red is rather nice too, I agree. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Disgustingly amazing models, your clean painting makes me very envious! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, no. I've retired the FE's after ten years of service. Instead, I'm starting a proper BA army finally, based on the colours from these guys.

IronKobra Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Absolutely gorgeous! I'll be looking to these for some ideas when I get to panting mine! I Like the bright red especially. Not so common anymore on BA'a. Old School! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El-Diablo Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Fantastic job on these Des, very smooth work, especially with the red. One question though, how have you done the purple Genestealer flesh? Looks far more natural that you'd usually see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One question though, how have you done the purple Genestealer flesh? Looks far more natural that you'd usually see. Hey thanks. IIRC, it's Hormagaunt Purple, shaded with watered-down Leviathan Purple and Badab Black, then highlighted by adding white to the basecoat. Some additional washes in between layers, I think. Nothing fancy, really. I would have used Fortress Grey instead of white, but the blasted paintpot was all dried up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garden Ninja Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I think the only criticism that I can come up with is that there's no close up of Lorenzo! Beautiful work, very good job on the jewel effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
