The Sekhmet+HH Emperor's Children: Imperial Fists Deathwing 12/4/24

[Valkia the Bloody]

I like how you have done the Deathguard. This looks great, even if "simplyfied".

[Terminatorinhell]

Absolutely sublime work, I really should get some tortuga bay stuff too. I like their terminators and MKIII

Absolutely fabulous!   

 

The "gold" tone on the shoulder pad trim looks great - would you mind sharing which colours it is?

 

I like the pallid head for the un-helmeted model, too  

Thanks! It's Decayed Metal and Elven Gold, with some silver for the highlights and Inktensity Green for the shadows.

Your work is truly inspirational and displays a level of talent to be admired and perhaps one day emulated. In fact, you have inspired me to dust off my long shelved Emperor's Children project - shelved because I'd never seen a purple that matched what I wanted. Until now.
Is the recipe/process for your current purple armour on your Instagram? I started following you the other day and did look through your posts but there's so much glorious content that I found it difficult to focus on that one thing.

 

***EDIT***

Since my last post I've been back to school and learnt to read properly - so I've found the aforementioned recipe/process on your Instagram page...

Thanks! Really glad you like them. The purple is Purple Lake ink from Daler and Rowney with some Inktensity Violet ink in the shadows. All of it is done with the airbrush over a white-black pre-shade.

Good day sir,

 

I hope this finds you well :) 

 

I'm looking at ordering some tortuga bay stuff as frankly, it looks sublime and scales so well [tartaros I'm looking at]. For the terminators, have you used regular terminator arms with them and regular marine arms for the upscaled marine armour?

 

Thanks in advance :)

Yeah, that's exactly right. Regular terminator and marine arms on the Tortuga minis.

I've just finished building and painting a plastic (resin is so much better) Contemptor for the new Death Guard project that I'm starting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you like how he turned out!

 

Thanks for looking

I keep zooming in to check they ain’t alphas in disguise

[Firedrake Cordova]

Really nice work on the Dreadnought. The aging and weathering is very well done

 

Are we going to get a full army shot when it's done?

Of course! That probably won't be for a while though. I'm planing to paint lots of Infantry, so this army will probably take me a while to work through.

The dreadnought and marine are superb. I’d be very interested to see the painting guide to see how it compares to your original DG scheme from earlier in this thread.

 

looking forward to seeing more DG. Will you be mixing Tortuga bay models with the new MKIII plastic marines? Upscaled Grave Wardens would be delightful to see

I think the new plastic MkIII look terrible, so I'll be mixing the Tortuga with old plastic MkIII bits 

[Brother Dallo]

Always a pleasure to see more of your stuff.

[Magos Kasen]

Your models are always an absolute inspiration!

[Kizzdougs]

I just finished a Leviathan to go with the Contemptor! I'm really happy with how he turned out 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you like him!

 

Thanks for looking 

[Magos Kasen]

Incredible work mate!

[Firedrake Cordova]

The posing, base, weathering, and hazard stripes on the hose are all top notch - I can see why you are happy with the result 

Edited November 23, 2023 by Firedrake Cordova

[Varyn]

Absolutely stunning!

[Kizzdougs]

I've finished the first ten Tactical Marines for the new army.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you like them 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Absolutely gorgeous - the hazard stripes, weathering, basing - all top-notch

[Pearson73]

The Tacticals look ace, cool to see you take on a rather different legion to the IIIrd. 

[Kizzdougs]

I took a quick break from the Death Guard and painted up this tiny Rhino 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you like him 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Nope, sorry, I'm not buying it. That's a regular Rhino with an "epic" Instagram filter, and that's a giant Mk VI marine next to it.  

 

Seriously though, that's very impressive work for something of that scale - the chipping, mud, highlights on the glass ...

[MithrilForge]

That's pretty darn awesome (Although I'd expect nothing less from you ) are you planning on doing the whole force to this level....who am I kidding ... of course you are !!!

such tiny decals ...

 

++EDIT++ is it contrast paints ??

Cheers, M

Yeah, it's Imperial Fists contrast over a pink and white pre-shade.

 

I don't think I'll paint anymore Epic minis. This was just the free Rhino that GW was handing out as the model of the month.

[Pearson73]

Tremendously impressive work on the Rhino given the scale.
