Fracture Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Finished him last night. I'm in love with this kit and thinking about working on a 2nd one at some point. Used the new Khorne red for the base and was very impressed. As always, let me know what you think as it keeps my painting drive going. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture024-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture026-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture025-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture027-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunThirster Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Awesome i love it. Neat paint job, colours are spot on, decent pose and a nice base.. Seth would be proud. If he was mine, id probably add some kind of decal on his right knee, just to add some detail to one of those large blank armour plates. Cheers!

Son of Carnelian Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Holy Throne of Terra! Now that's a Contemptor! I am still thinking of getting one for my Flesh Tearers over the summer and now I have some inspiration to draw from! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Beautiful red you have there. Wear and tear is nicely done and not too OTT. Awesome sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EPK Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Well done! When I first read the title I was hoping to see some sort of giant rotary buzz saw-type weapon in place of the DCCW... so get on that for your next one! Do two of them, count as blood claws. It's okay if it's only a regular Dread and not a Contemptor, I will not hold it against you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fracture Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 I know what you mean EPK. I've already done this for my DC dread. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture100.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture101.jpg But for Contemptor blood talons I want to make dread sized ones of these which I made for an assault sgt. Not figured out how to do it yet though. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/Flesh%20Tearers/Picture002.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPK Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Ah, well, very good then... carry on. They all look great and I'm sure you figure out conversion based on what I see there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 This is really quite delicious. Flawless paintjob. Have to ask, how did you do the weathering on the black areas? Also, how what colors did you use for the base? So simple yet so striking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhg033 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 lovely work there! DC dread and marine are great too. out of interest, did you follow the khorne scheme on the GW website or did oyu do your own? i'e tried doing FT before nad they came out a bit to BA red for my liking.

Fracture Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 Thanks for the comments guys. Glad he's gone down well. @Reinhard. The base is codex grey, thin wash of scorched brown then a dry brush of fortress grey. For the statue bits on the contemptor I started with a base of adeptus battlegrey and ork hide shade and added bleached bone to high light. Black areas are done with a base of boltgun with scorched brown simply followed with boltgun leaving a bit of the base colour showing. I might then hive some of the deeper dents/holes a brown/black wash. @Ihg033 For the red I started out with Khorne red, found this has great coverage over black. I then washed it down with Ogryn Flesh and Baal red together. Reapply the Khorne red and add blood red to highlight up. Finish with another wash of ogryn flesh and baal red to tie it all together. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
