Lestat Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Picked up the new Chaos Aspiring Champion at the weekend as I think it's one of the best models GW have ever produced. It is overflowing with detail and the pose and flow of the model is superb. Theres even a detailed base too complete with bits of Necron. Anyway, as I've been off ill from work today, I decided to sart painting him. http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss33/hellon2wheelz/DSCF0123.jpg http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss33/hellon2wheelz/DSCF0124.jpg http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss33/hellon2wheelz/DSCF0125.jpg http://i559.photobucket.com/albums/ss33/hellon2wheelz/DSCF0126.jpg Pretty happy with how he's turned out so far. There's still some work to do and I need to finish his backpack off. Any C&C is more than welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heralds of excess Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I really like your purple and gold! If i can make a suggestion I'd say that the main body loses a bit of detail because it seems to be just purple, maybe you could break it up with some spot colour?

Dez Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 That's what I was thinking too, maybe bring it up another level brighter with more highlighting? That model is great, nice way to spend a day off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have a play around with trying to get the highlights lighter without going pink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heralds of excess Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Have you considered painting the tubes going into the chest a different colour? Kinda like this (shameless promotion): http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/o782/Supermunkie1/Warhammer/CIMG0032.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering blue, but there is already a large amount of blue on the model. Scratch that - just had an idea of going for a bone colour to match the horns and tabard/cloth.
