dinklebumm Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 i wanted to try one of the fincast models so i decided id get this guy. i dont really like the normal silver grey knights so i decided i want like a dirty metal/goldish look. so i came up with this and i think it turned out better than i thought it would be.I still got to do some weathering on hios armor and paint the rest of him. http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-08-28144947.jpg?t=1314568921 http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-08-28145000.jpg?t=1314568918 http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-08-28145014.jpg?t=1314568926 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sword brethren Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 very nice start, really like the metallic colour rather than bright silver. is the model finecast or metal, just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinklebumm Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 Haven't been able to do much on this guy cause i've been busy with school and work but i did manage to get the cape finished. I have to cleanup the armor cause i got some baal red on it in some places. here are a few pics. the light was kinda bright in some places so sorry if its kinda tough on the eyes. http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-09-02235545.jpg?t=1315033376 http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-09-02235624.jpg?t=1315033374 http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-09-02235700.jpg?t=1315033385 http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-09-02235741.jpg?t=1315033387 http://i709.photobucket.com/albums/ww94/dinklebumm/2011-09-02235803.jpg?t=1315033392 Ill try and update as soon as i can this time.

Dosjetka Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 How did you achieve that metallic colour, if you don't mind sharing your recipe? I may try that out, as it looks great :P Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWulfen92 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 This mini looks great. The silver colour look more like what I would imagine Grey Knights to look like. Keep up the good work. Would love to see an army in those colours <_<. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinklebumm Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 How did you achieve that metallic colour, if you don't mind sharing your recipe? I may try that out, as it looks great I first base coated in boltgun metal, then i highlighted where the light hits with mithrill silver, after that i washed all the silvers in gryphonne sepia. To make touch ups if u make a mistake i take a drop of boltgun metal and add gryphonne sepia to it till i get the right color then i add water to the mix, u may not have to add water cause the wash already thins the mix but i find that without it, the wash wants to separate from the boltgun metal.
