esinhorn Posted November 21, 2012 Author Share Posted November 21, 2012 It is called the hairspray technique This tank is lightly done,mostly just scratches done with toothpick Here are a bunch of yahoo images of my WW2 Winter Camo themed Guard tank company This is the technique with using a flat brush(key is the white camo must be thinly sprayed) 1st Merican Lancers http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/imag...amp;fr2=piv-web Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262272-dark-heart-of-cthonia/page/2/#findComment-3243865 Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted November 21, 2012 Author Share Posted November 21, 2012 Kind of,he gets a bit crazy with it applying with a brush,I just airbrush 2-3 coats. I think the brushwork is overkill. But the idea is the same. Look into Missing Lynx articles,AK Interactive,Mig Jimenez( the master of weathering) to start. Remember the Forge World guys who make these tanks are WW2 fine scale modelers first http://missing-lynx.com/rareworld.htm Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262272-dark-heart-of-cthonia/page/2/#findComment-3244049 Share on other sites More sharing options...

esinhorn Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 I reworked the banner bearer,stripping him down and giving him a repaint. I used two decals on the shoulder the Legion numerals under the Eye of Horus. The decal sheet I have is a little on the thick side, to combat this I dip the decal into micro-set for 10 seconds instead of water, then go over that with Micro-sol once that dries, flattening everything carefully with a napkin and paintbrush. I replaced the helmet trophy with a piece of brass-etch I have made some purchases lately that will see this army absolutely blow peoples minds. You guys know how I love Tanks and Flyers :P http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/489d91a4810883df1d1d988e0d896c4a.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/7462dbdb48fc6b19967112b774de4878.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/3757611dc0d8c770f03df72143ae91c3.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262272-dark-heart-of-cthonia/page/2/#findComment-3246142 Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted November 26, 2012 Author Share Posted November 26, 2012 I have been alternating between Termies and Terrain I finished the second Cityfight tile the Shattered Plaza.

I picked up my Defense Line.Very simple to crank out. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/e48c632a334aca039e0f4ac2b323de8c.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/b58c632a0ffc6c2bf1a2394190d27051.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262272-dark-heart-of-cthonia/page/2/#findComment-3246728 Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted November 27, 2012 Author Share Posted November 27, 2012 I finished a section of trench line. Pro-Tip if you hate the Cadians use MIG/AK/FW Mud Weathering powder over the same grey basecoat you use for the walls. It obsures enough detail to make them much more anonymous and more like corpses. http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/6648bd98a87e7f819ea33e80a186d445.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/8e0e7b564824090055e5de68c196e45c.jpg http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc52/Esinhorn/4e187327854683e45f464a396be0836b.jpg This bad-boy just came today took the good ole #17 blade and reoved all Death Guard detail and adding SoH brass in its place.

Beef Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Having looked at your work I can say thats some real nice painting, my only gripe was your standard troops looked really badly painted until i saw your vets without helmets and realised your painting is awsome, I relaised what caused me to think the models were painte to a basic standard. The green looks way to chalky, almost like its been drybrushed. If you could get that sorted the armour would then match the rest of the models (face/pauldren/etc) in terms of professionalism (sp) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/262272-dark-heart-of-cthonia/page/2/#findComment-3249102 Share on other sites More sharing options...
esinhorn Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 I know what your talking about,probally the streaking fluid I used to weather the armor.
