Master Chaplain Astador Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Hey guys, I just put some finishing touched on a TT miniature for a client. He wanted Lord Zhufor done for his World Eaters army. Unfortunately the pictures aren't the best, I'll take better ones tomorrow in the daylight. Base will be done by the client. http://i372.photobucket.com/albums/oo161/WarForgeStudios/page-2.jpg Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 That is a gorgeous deep red. Kudos on the worn cloak + freehand as well. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Great looking model, but the purple really throws me off. It looks out of place as shading, imo. Still nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallvictory Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Good contrast on the metals, I like that the recesses are not only darker but duller than the raised parts. I am actualy a fan of the purple shading on the armor and the red seems brighter than most, just the way I like it. Well done. Hard to tell from pictures but is that a web/slime effect between his tusks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 Cheers guys I apologize for the delay in replying. I was delivering the piece to the client today. Glad you saw what I was going for Nihm! :) Magic: The purple is actually shaded down to a regal blue in the deepest areas, although while uploading and editing the photo for final results, it brought out the purple more than actually present in the miniature. I took some new photo's and will have some up shortly. Small: Yes it is. There is also blood slime from the mouth and tusks and gore from the fist and axe shaft.

Aqatone Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 That's a great red. I'd love to see this colour on a high standard competition model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Maybe you will! :lol: I like the colours and perhaps when I have some time I'll do it on a larger piece that I like! Not sure what that could be though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Hate to ask for a trade secret, but how the heck did you do those skulls? That color is fantastic! :) A wonderful model overall, I'm sure your client will be pleased! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 Chaplain, I don't believe in trade secrets. The only secret I have is my miniature line that will be out next year. <_< I used Rhinox hide as a basecoat and added highlights with Mournfang Brown and Ushabti Bone, final highlights with Ceramite White and washed with Earthshade. The reason I don't believe in trade secrets is because each painter applies paint in different ways, so giving away your colour recipe won't always yield the same result painter to painter. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
