I'm ready to see a Gold Land Raider

Now imagine the silver = gold

 

Taken from this thread

 

I think thats the best idea, the land raider is quite good in how it has lots of layers on the armour to break up the big flat areas. If theres some good contrasting colour to stop it looking like a big gold brick I think it could be a really cool scheme to use.

 

Grab some of the details off the cities of death sets or the Sister of Battle vehicle accessory sprue to add some relics and stuff to it, that way it looks like its a mobile holy relic of ass kicking! :)

Talk about a very chapter specific user name mate! :huh:

I must say, 30DC+A has my favorite name ever.

 

But hey, did anyone else see someone post a gold LR in another unrelated thread? I believe I saw that, meant to mention this thread to the guy, decided it would be off-topic so I should PM him, then forgot about it...

OK then (this'll take a while) i have sprayed the model chaos black and had undercoated it with tin bitz. then i had painted it with shining gold and i am now wondering whether i should wash it with delvan mud. any help guys?

If you haven't used any other method of shading yet, I'd say definitely wash it with Devlan Mud. But don't simply wash the whole model as it will cost you a whole pot and will often end up looking blotchy once dried. Rather try painting the wash into all recesses. It doesn't take as much time as you'd believe and it's much easier to clean up with Shining Gold afterwards.

 

I imagine some dust and scratches would look good on a vehicle that shiny but can't tell without seeing it.

Yeah, that one. It's hard to tell what I think though because of the area surrounding the 'Raider blending in with the Raider itself. I'd want to see it on the game-board with the rest of the army to know whether it looked acceptable or garish.

/sigh

 

Twilight jokes don't bother me as much as some people who get all "RWAR WORST BOOK EVER VAMPIRES ARE RUINED I HATE TWILIGHT BLAAAAAAARGH" over them. They aren't funny, but they aren't offensive or annoying in themselves, either.

 

The only thing that bugs me about "lol Blood Angles is the army for Twihards amirite??" jokes is that they always seem so random and immature.

Naah, BA with too much gold smacks of Twilight. BA with lots of red are how they were meant to be. Barring Dante and Tycho, of course. You'll notice I've only been snarking off in the threads involving gold BA armies.

I'd say quite the opposite, Blood Angels are cool vampire the roundhoude kick Twilight in the face. i think a golden land raider would look cool if it's done right. Plus, the emperor and his custodes had gold land riaders, why can't the Blood angels.

One of the kids at the local GW has a gold LR. I'll try to get some pics of it
Here it is, told you it was gold
