timwrightii Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 The spawn is finished and I'm super stoked at how awesome he came out if I do say so myself. Enjoy him in all his flesh sucking, gut pooping glory! http://i.imgur.com/vILjkl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/rhlNSl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ttBwll.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Tty0el.jpg http://i.imgur.com/avokDl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/jRmKEl.jpg Here is a close up of some if the hand detail.

timwrightii Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Hobby update. The conversion project is nearly complete. A couple last bits to go and the army will be ready for priming and painting. Here is one if the biker champs with fist. Of course there are plenty guts and sores. Also reading the fluff of the bikes gave me a few ideas. The idea of the bikers becoming one with their steeds (they call the bike steeds in the fluff, I was onto something before I even read it!). Moar bass strings to the rescue. http://i.imgur.com/4NyDEl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/NDeTJl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/y1YVAl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/nBf39l.jpg Conments and criticism welcome (and encouraged!)

Grimm. Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Jeez, is that a low E bass string in the last picture? That must have taken some work to get it to sit in place! I use old guitar strings for cabling and they can be tough enough. That is pretty sick greenstuff work too, I use milliput at the minute as I have quite a stash. I got some of the liquid greenstuff and it's pretty good for patch work. Keep up the good work and i'd be interested in seeing this stuff painted.

timwrightii Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 I finished the spawn this morning. Wanna see? Of course you do! http://i.imgur.com/j69iil.jpg http://i.imgur.com/SoKuxl.jpg I'll break down how I painted this bad boy up. I'll describe colors I used as best I can but I use numerous paints from multiple ranges. First it was primed black. The skin was painted with nurgling green mixed with a bit of leather to give it some flesh tones. I then painted Ogryn Flesh wash into the deep areas, so not to cover the whole model in wash, this saves a highlighting step and keeps the final color true. Using a wet pallet I used the same skin color but cut it with a tiny bit of white and painted almost all of the skin again, leaving only a bit of wash and original base showing. I feathered the paint on very thin so it doesnt make a hard transition. I did this again with a little more white so as to leave just a little of the previous layer. I did it one more time, about 50/50 white to skin. Lastly I picked out very sharp edges with about 75% white to skin to make the creases pop. All the sores I washed with red then violet. The muscle I painted blood red with a tiny bit of white. Using the wet pallet I keep adding in more white as the layers went along. While painting each layer I keep the brush strokes in line the muscle striations. The last bit was nearly white where the light would be hitting it to make it pop (gotta make it pop!) The finger nails and teeth I painted the same as the skin, but used leather to bone to white paint. Wet pallet makes this so easy. I'll have to show you. Video idea! The guts were very easy. I slopped on a very thick wet layer of red/grey. While it was still very wet I added a yellowish green in some areas, spreading it out, basically mixing the colors on the model (wet blending) then did the same think with grey in different areas. I then washed it with flesh and highlighted with a lighter version of the red/green/grey mixture. Lastly the tongue I played around with a bit. It was originally a pinkish red, much like the muscle. I however changed it to the more blueish purple. I used about 50/50 blue to red with some grey. This way I start very dark and don't have to wash it. I then layered up mixing in more white each layer, leaving only a little bit of the previous layer behind. The rust I based Scorched brown then added rust brown then rust orange pigments. The blood was done with Tamiya Clear Red. This stuff is basically a thick translucent gloss varnish. I painted and stippled around all the muscle. I went over it again with the same clear red with a tiny splash of black. This makes the red less translucent and gives the red detail. The skeleton mouth goo was done with hot glue, then covered in the same way as the muscle with the blood effect. The base was painted a slightly lighter and redder version of scorched brown mixed with a bit of leather. It was then washed with mud, then drybrushed with a lighter version of the base color. The little mushroom thingys were painted leather, washed violet and then highlight with leather then a final highlight of leather/bone. Then the base and feet were covered in a dirty brown/green pigment, then a lighter dirty green pigment. Lastly I put a gloss varnish on the tongue and guts. So there you have it. Simple!

Dez Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I love it, such creative conversions. I have to resist starting mine overt again, I've already begun painting ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/page/2/#findComment-3288188 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimm. Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 That spawn is proper sick and vulgar. Just how I imagine they should look were we unfortunate enough for these things to be real. A video tutorial on the wet pallet/wet blending techniques would be pretty cool. awesome work!

Lieutenant Steel Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I love the Gluttony Spawn- which model line is it? I'm having one those moments when I know I've seen it before but can't place it... It makes a fantastic Nurgle Spawn though :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/265778-typhus-and-bikers-themed-army-wip/page/2/#findComment-3290758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
timwrightii Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 It is the Gluttony Demon from the Helldorado range. Thanks for the comments guys. Yes, that is a mold line, didnt catch it till it was too late. The model is metal and I thought I scraped it down enough. Oh well, it's no where near as noticeable on the table.

timwrightii Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 This. Is. Going. To. Take. Forever. 3 hour zombies. Does this look infected? Greenstuff stage: http://i.imgur.com/VhjOPv9l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/C3659X8l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Brsyeh6l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LdAZUD3l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ehh1HREl.jpg Behold Sir Whippy Guts! http://i.imgur.com/smGHmS5l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/O6redlPl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/vI6OyrBl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/tG2lO5Zl.jpg I'm going for a two fold style with the zombies. A bunch, like Sir Whippy Guts here are in nice orange prison jump suits. The other half are going to be in a charcoal style army uniform. Weathering powders are da pooped! Before you yell cheater just know I highlight before powders, so yes, even the boots got highlighting.
