My Cassius count as WIP

 

Still trying to decide on shoulder pads for him. I'm thinking the mk3 style raised rim pad in the CF command pack and something with a skull...

 

Let me know what you guys think

 

Thanks

Aaaah paint....these are really nice, you've really captured the dark blue tone of the CFs...the only thing I would say is thin out the extreme highlights in terms of width and placement.

 

But all in all these are great...

Thanks guys for the praise!! They are the first minis that I have painted in over 8 years and have been a massive learning curve for me. I've just stocked up on some black primer so there will be more to follow this coming week.

Thanks DF! I'm currently using a GW Detail brush for the line highlights. I think I will try maybe a thinner brush and "cut back" the highlights with the base colour to thin them out for the next batch.

 

Next on the assembly line is 2 rhinos and the las plas razorback. Im just waiting on some more Forgeworld goodies!!!!

Very nice. Your Fists are looking tight!

 

Thank you very much sir! I am working a lot at the moment so I hope to get some more painting done before the end of next week.

 

Looking very cool B) What blue did you use?

 

Ludovic

 

Thank you!

 

The blue is super simple:

 

Necron Abyss

Line highlight with ultramarines Blue

Heavy Asurmen blue wash

 

If anything needs more shading i hit it with a a bit of badab in the recesses.

 

I rely heavily on the current GW washes and foundation paints. They are amazing!

*UPDATE!!!*

 

After a long time away I finally managed to make some time for paiting.

 

I painted my counts as Cassius (as of yet un-named) chaplain for a painting competition at my local GW.

 

I didn't place but it got me to paint it so good times!!!

 

Heres some (bad) pics of him:

I have also nearly finished the first squad and will be updating in the next week or so.

 

Thanks!
