Great work :) Now do more :D

That red is looking really solid. Have you given it a Baal red wash? It really helps to deepen the colour.

I know you probably haven't finished it yet but a Mithril Silver edge highlight would really sharpen up the gold.

I can't wait to see some more progress.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Yeah I gave him a Baal red wash towards the end to try and smooth some of my scrappy blending. It really helped. Thanks for the tip on the gold I have been wondering what it was missing. I still have a few things to finish on him ie backpack,base and some fine details. As I said before it has been a loooooong time since I painted anything so I'm quite pleased with my efforts here. I'm really excited about seeing the whole force painted up and cannot wait to see the Dread finished. I'm saving him for last though.

I am still working on my WE Ive just been hammered for time lately but I bought myself a Defiler kit and a Land Raider kit last week. Im now on leave from work and have been playing and come up with this so far. :evil1: This is going to take a while to build and its gonna cost a feckin fortune but its something Ive had in my head for a long time. Im hoping when done it wil be quite reminiscent of ED-209 and the old Space Crusade Dread. Nothing is glued yet.

I know its not much yet but let me know what you think folks. Any hints and tips for the rest of the legs would be appreciated as well.

 

Been working on my Daemon Prince today. The gs will be smoothed out and there is still a lot to be added but thought I would show some WIP.

Thanks guys. Unfortunatley the GS on the DP's helm wasnt as smooth as I thought it was and shows a bit through the paint but I dont really mind. Ive also noticed a couple of mold lines but Im not going to bother with them its just something Ill have to be extra vigilant for in my next DP build.

 

Quick update on where Im at with the paint.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the support. Kizz I've had all these ideas rolling around my head for a while but haven't had time to sit down and crank them out. Im hoping to finish the DP this week as well as my first squad of Zerkers. Once those are done I get to paint my Dred! :D

 

The DP is the first time I've painted a model this big.

Here's where I finished last night. Today I'll work on his base and then finish his sword arm and wings.

I've been waiting to see that Dread painted since your very first post in this thread! Can't wait :D

Nice use of the Ogre gut plate as a WE shoulder pad for the Prince. Clever. Solid job on the skin as well.

What colour are you thinking of painting the sword? I'd suggest a 'fiery' look to make sure it stands out.

I was going to try black with a green ghost fire running up the middle. Not sure how well it will work though. I have a couple of spare so may practise on them first. Yeah I'm itching to paint the Dred as well but I want to get at least one squad done first then I can reward myself with it. ������

Glad you like the shoulder plate. I've seen a few guys use that plate to represent the WE symbol so I can't really take credit for it. I wanted the DP to be wearing almost gladiatorial style armour and the gut plate and dark elf head dresses were what I came up with. I'm going to build two more DP's as I want to build both Angron and Doombreed so I have a few more ideas in me noggin for those :D

 

Started the metallics on the 2nd Zerker. The guy next to him is going to be a test scheme for my Scythes of the Emperor force that I'll eventually get around to.

A quick look at how he stands just now. Im having a really hard time deciding what to do with the sword though ( as in I have NO idea) so any thoughts or suggestions are encouraged. Im completly stumped. :BangHead:

The base so far.

Thanks for the replies guys. Mr.M Im glad to be back I see youve started at least 3 different projects in the time I was away haha. Really like the look of your Ultras.

 

Anyone got anymore suggestions for the sword? Im quite liking the plain black but feel its a bit too plain.
