Bat33.1 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I've put these up in the WIP pages with more pictures and details but I thought a cross post here might get some more partisan responses :D Angels Encarmine Baal Predator http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y87/paulj1965/GW%2040K/BA014Baalcrop.jpg Angels Encarmine DC test figure http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y87/paulj1965/GW%2040K/BA003crop.jpg I like the white DC and Sang guard look as something different and will be starting to build and paint some more units probably starting with a Rhino and a tac squad. Any thoughts on a 1750 pts build list? I have a SR on the way but it doesn't have to be in the list I'm just looking forward to building one :wacko: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221844-baal-predator-and-dc/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Captain Lucius Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 That white.............................It's like..................MAGNIFICENT! :P What be your recipe for it? The baal isn't bad either :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221844-baal-predator-and-dc/#findComment-2650550 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plague Angel Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 That decal (at least I assume it's a decal) looks very striking against the white. And that's a lovely shade of vermillion on your Baal — I'd be interested in hearing your red recipe. The battle-damage is a great touch. It's also interesting to see how the closed hatch looks; mine's built with the little Devastator peeking out of it. Great job!

Captain Juan Juarez Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 He looks a bit too clean to be in the Death Company, but a cracking mini. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221844-baal-predator-and-dc/#findComment-2650593 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat33.1 Posted February 7, 2011 Author Share Posted February 7, 2011 Thanks for the kind comments :) Plague Angel the chapter marking is indeed a decal from FW BA set. Brother-Captain Lucius the white was really straight forward - Chaos black undercoat followed by skull white both out of a can, the chaos black actually gave a slight shading effect to the skull white which needed a couple of thin coats to get it clean. next was thinned Vallejo light grey shading roughly 1:2 paint:water, paint armour joints boltgun, clean up with skull white, wash joints with badab black, again clean up with skull white if needed. Paint details and your done. I left the backpack off until painting was finished this was chaos black with thinned adeptus grey highlights. I didn't go too heavy on weathering just a light glaze of graveyard earth around the feet. I'm thinking he's just leaping out of his transport so not had time to get down and dirty yet ;) Pauldrons, power fists, older mark helmet... I dunno man, that's a lot of curves.

Bat33.1 Posted February 7, 2011 Author Share Posted February 7, 2011 Simples My ass! And yah along with Plague Angel, Stolen Also! Well it is compared to Heavy Metals 5-6 different colour layers to build up a white PA figure :huh: I will be trying a slightly different mix for the white on the next one by using a grey undercoat - lots of these about army painter, halfords,vallejo (my choice as they do a pre mixed ready to airbrush version in big 60 or 200ml bottles - followed by airbrushed white. I will need to do some list building first though - but a white DC Rhino is very, very tempting...

d@n Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 LOVE it! i would say the low lights are a bit thick though but low lighting white must be murder.

Bat33.1 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 LOVE it! i would say the low lights are a bit thick though but low lighting white must be murder. Not the easiest colour to work with I must admit, and it's pretty much a WIP as far as working out the technique for painting a white PA mini. I'm reasonably happy with the finished figure as I'm aiming at a tabletop finish and not golden demon :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/221844-baal-predator-and-dc/#findComment-2651778 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bat33.1 Posted February 8, 2011 Author Share Posted February 8, 2011 Those are some beautifully painted models there mate! Thanks praise always welcome :) On slightly different tack here anybody got suggestions for a sarge shoulder pad colours with Angels Encarmine? I'm not sure I can freehand the chapter markings onto a black shoulder pad with any great accuracy...

The Yncarne Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Great job on everything. Markings on shoulder pads... have you tried tracing paper? Use a hard pencil on tracing paper. Then place the paper on the shoulder pad while rubbing the back side. It should transfer over. I used that technique in the '90s for Eldar bike canopies and it worked well. Marine shoulder pads may be small, but I don't have any other suggestions.
