o3gan Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Im painting my rhino BA scheme but have gone a bit overboard with the blazing and fiery orange blending and now it looks too orange for BA anyone got any ideas of how to bring it back up to more red. I was thinking blending blood red from the under side of the rhino towards the top link to my rhino here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemal Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 A few washes of Baal red would probably help unify the colours and deepen it a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techmarine.Varrius Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 The Baal red idea is good, plus add a few glazes of a dark green ie thraka green or da green in the crevices and places where it would be dark. A few light glazes of a purple or scab red might work on the rest of the panels as well, it could add more blue taking away the yellow-ie-ness(?) to an extent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Maybe even some Ogryn Flesh washes, as that has a sort of reddish tint too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o3gan Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 Just done the other panells now and they look good, if i baal red wash the bad side will i need to do it to all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venerable Jazzman Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 It would probably tie it together better if you washed the whole Rhino, otherwise it's going to look a bit haphazard again. Less is more when it comes to highlighting, especially with something like orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o3gan Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 Less is more when it comes to highlighting, especially with something like orange. yes i did alot less on my other sides and they looked so much better, i didnt blend as far with the blazing orange and i only did an extreme highlight with the fiery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Fury Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I use washes over top of my highlights all the time. Looks good to me. you might actually have to go back and retouch the very extreme highlights on the corners. Here is a pic (a poor one) I took a while back for somebody: http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll275/RedFury77/40k/100_0861.jpg My highlights don't end up very 'extreme' but I like it. -Fury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o3gan Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 its fully painted now and i think all the metal areas and the eagle on the front have made it look more red + my marines are quite bright anyway so i think its uniform. i think im going to keep it. ill get some pics up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
