KYR GKIKAS Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Lets talk about Deathwing.Has anyone tried the new colour range to paint the Deathwing?Can anyone share with us the experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puck Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I use the Vallejo Modal Air paints using and as a tutorial. The end result looks like the following Don't use the new range because consistency through out my army is hard enough to achieve without GW switching colors on me.

Adeptus-Alaska Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 well, I haven't used it on the DW yet, but I did use it on this guy http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i438/furioso-prime/20120731_132628.jpg for the robes, and it was a little tedious..... I think I'll used Elmo's DW recipe, it's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

march10k Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I've used the terminatus stone drybrush stuff, but not on deathwing. I'll just keep using my existing method. Why change what works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I follow the old fluff about how after they killed off the genestealers and hybrids, they white washed their black armor and put no markings other then what the scratched in. Now I do a bit more so they are not just white but still try to make it look worn and white washed. http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/ll62/DeathbyDread/deathwing.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandalphon Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 http://www.coolminiornot.com/pics/pics16/img501e0dd04e767.jpg I always start with bestial brown, then layer up some bleached bone. Then i wash with badaab black in the deep recesses. Then i'll get into all the details, metallics etc. Once it all dries build up some more bone and skull white and wash again with gryphonne sepia. Touch up edges with skull white and then get weathering. I definitely prefer them whiter and not 'old vanilla ice-cream' like they've been painted in WD..

Isiah Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I definitely prefer them whiter and not 'old vanilla ice-cream' like they've been painted in WD.. Agreed. The GW ones always look too custardy to me. I think it has to do with the strange orangey colour they insist on using for the recesses. I prefer a more contrasty look. If anyone has the latest White Dwarf, check out the single DW termy on page 75 by Dan Harden. Much whiter/cleaner armour (still using a slightly darker orange for recesses though) but strangely more 'gimdark' and menacing in character. Some nice battle damage too. Pretty much how I like the DW to look. Btw your squad looks awesome sauce. @Dread: Yes I've often pondered how it might look to mimic black plate covered with a hand-applied white over-colour. It would be difficult to pull off without them just looking like poorly painted models. It's all to do with the size/scale of the white coating looking 'right' for the relative size of the model. You seem to have made a pretty good fist of it with yours. Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvih Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm scared to even think about painting the DV DW termies in a light color, as I'm ultra-slow and not-so-good even with my simple Black Templars :D Pre-shading, post-shading... uh oh. Well, I suppose in this sense it's good that it'll take a long time until I've finished all the BT models and have to contend with the DA models :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I haven't painted entire Terminators with the new line, but I did do a bit of bone work on the leg supports of my Ven Dread in my WiP Stoneburners thread in my sig. It should be one of the last comments in the topic. I think I went through how I did it (though I would definitely increase the last Screaming Skull highlight a lot on Deathwing and finish it with the edge highlighting in pure White Scar). If you have any questions, I'd be more than happy to try my hand at answering them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemid Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I paint mine kinda similar to Dread, very heavily drybrushed. The first batch came out extremely white tinted (though it's warmer than in the photo), the newer ones I've done are a shade more bone colored. Flesh wash or Bestial or Scorched brown undercoat, heavy drybrush on Bleached/Ushabti Bone, with Skull White on top. http://i.imgur.com/bnJOq.jpg?1 http://i.imgur.com/2cTDH.jpg?1 This one (Belial) is painted ontop of a very light brown, a la Elmo's method but without the washes. I think I like the darker bases better: http://i.imgur.com/MRjHe.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This swell not-so-little guy from Hitech: http://hitechminiatures.com/null/product/info/51 I chopped his sword hand off and gave him a GK Daemonhammer. It was a very good match for wrist diameter. I've also ordered their standard bearer, their "nathaniel" (eagle hammer), their "raphael" (SB/PS, I'll chop it into probably claws), and a guy from Scibor to make an equally relicarmortastic command squad. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fits very nicely amongst a Terminator squad, actually - certainly better than the OOP Terminator Captain. He's a LITTLE bigger, but I think it suits him just fine, being the Master of the Deathwing and all: http://i.imgur.com/9MYVY.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eeps Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Bases on mine like this: After priming, Zandri dust and then Ushabti Bone with an airbrush: http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2012/8/20/403837_sm-Belial,%20Dark%20Angels.JPG Then chuck on a pretty thick coat of Seraphim Sepia: http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2012/8/20/403838_sm-Belial,%20Dark%20Angels.JPG Once dry it should look like this: http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2012/8/20/403839_sm-Belial,%20Dark%20Angels.JPG I've let it pool a bit on the shield in places, but its not the end of the world. Drybush Screaming Skull over the top. Lots of passes with not a lot of paint seems to work best http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2012/8/20/403840_sm-Belial,%20Dark%20Angels.JPG Finally, a quick final drybrush with Praxetl White to get the high highlights. Again very dry drybrush. http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2012/8/20/403841_sm-Belial,%20Dark%20Angels.JPG I'll finish the rest of the model and show the scheme in a similar way in the near future (when i can stop myself playing LoL).
