Payce Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 The daemonforge on the belly is really very nice - is it possible to ask for closeups and possibly the recipe? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somar Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 okay, here is a quick rundown on how i painted the thing: -prime black -dry brush the whole thing with tin bitz -dry brush the whole thing with shining gold, not too heavy. that is what makes the gold look somewhat old. -paint all the flat recessed areas black (probably the most time consuming stage and later you WILL find some of those areas that you missed) -for the tubing at the neck and in the rear, paint with bolt gun metal, then paint the tubing covering blood red, then give it a wash with devlan mud dry brush the tips of the spikes and the whole claws with bolt gun metal -for the glow effect paint the demonforge things with mechdrite red, including a bit of the surrounding area. then only the recessed ribs blood red and paint successively smaller areas in orange, yellow and white. (i used all foundation paints for those, do not apply them too thickly). then give the whole area a yellow glaze, then do a small line of white in the middle again. done. for the eyes and nostrils, paint the inside white, then touch up the edges with gold and hit it with devlan mud to take the shiny out of it. then fill the cavity with a bit of red ink. that's about it.

Shuggnuggath Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 It's tempting to do one upside down deliberately. Its like some kind of unholy hybrid mole/frog/dragonfly beast ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somar Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 it actually is a shame, the underside has a bunch of variation as opposed to the top, the demonforge vents, the neck wiring, the armor on the rear limbs, but once it is on the table nobody sees those things.

smallvictory Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Haven't seen one of these things in person yet, but it's easy to imagine this one flying above the table top, good job. Is this the first model of your legion? The hard contrast should look great on the table with a whole army done the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somar Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 yes, this was the first model of my 2000 point black legion army. i will post some pix when i get some done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Beautiful job on the paint, man! Looks great! Still a butt-ugly model though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
