Nah he's finished. I'd never use the guy if I'm honest, it just didn't feel right to have him all under coated and not painted!

 

I finished this guys recently:

And on a more power armoured note I then moved on to Brother Artemis. Or well, that model but painted in Ultramarine colours:

Killing time now till Space Marine (the game) comes out, and uni starts.

With my time off over xmas, I've started on Ahriman.

 

Early days yet, and cos of the light the picture isn't great. Just thought I'd pop a post down!

 

Very very very tempted to paint his robes blue, but his armour red.

I would try and change the color of either the robe or the armor so they don't mix together like they are right now. You could make one of them lighter, darker, more purple, ect.

 

It looks fantastic otherwise.

Thanks guys! Glad you like it! :D

 

I don't actually mind the paint job on it, but I really want to get him in finecast and paint him differently. With his armour red and his robes blue. I still think Ahriman is a bit of a traditional Thousand Son at heart, and I'm hoping in the next Chaos Codex to have a small force of the rubric marines following him about! His red armour showing his allegiance to the the chapter etc etc.

 

Plus this model is so old now, and it was a particularly decent cast of him. Would love to get a nicely detailed resin cast! :)

Just popped these in the work in progress thread for feedback, but it's technically a "finished" mini.

Great model ;)

 

By the way, you say that you do a 1:1 mix of Mechrite Red and Blazing Orange as a highlight, but how do you apply it? As an edge highlight? Or maybe as a diluted layer, leaving the pure MR in the deeper parts of the armour?

 

Cheers,

It' all edge highlights mostly.

 

Nothing special about em or anything. I now and then use a glaze over the edges to bring out the extreme highlights on the head or shoulder.

 

Standard stuff!
