For anyone interested - from plastic pieces to finished painted model took around 4 hours,

the base took an extra hour including choosing bits and drying time for the glue.

 

As White can be a pain to paint and this is suprisingly quick to do...

 

Weathered White:

- Undercoat with Codex Grey

- Zenithal Spray with Skull White Spray

- Blended Wash of Codex Grey toward shadows and into recesses

- Blended Wash of Desert Yellow toward areas which would see a build up of dust

- Blended Wash of Graveyard Earth as above but less wash used

- Wash of Dark Flesh into recesses

- Blended Layer of Roughly Equal Codex Grey mixed with Skull White

- Irregular Edge Highlights and Battle Damage Highlight with Skull White

- Battle Damage overlaying the White with Dark Flesh

Very nice! The scheme reminds me almost exactly of Desert Eagle's Desert Eagles (:P) but the painting/weathering is extremely well done!

 

Edit: That sounds like a criticism, doesn't it? Not intended that way, it's a really nice scheme! :tu:

Zincite, Tomlev 40, Zxyogi, Grimdarkness, UltraRich - Thanks Muchly...

 

LostBritain - I gave the recipe above, some advice would be to make sure the "washes" are thinned to the point that the paint is just becoming translucent and after applying, smooth any obvious "watermark" with a clean brush so you get a nice blended transition, the other important things would be to make sure each wash is dry before applying the next and obviously, practice will help you improve...

 

Ludovic - Maybe some more white marines but unlikely to do the exact same scheme again, I painted him in my local GW for a "design a chapter" competition so will likely remain a solitary figure... The temptation to buy a whole load of Mk5 from forgeworld and use this white for a load of PH Worldeaters is pretty strong though... Maybe if some extra money comes my way soon... :-)

 

Lysimachus - I know the models you are referring to, I'd be lying if I said that they weren't an influence as they are really cool models.

 

Thanks again for the feedback...
