Studio Silvernale Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 OK well the Reaper paint blue steel I used for my Executioners was discontinued, so I tried a new mix. The original type is on the left, and the new on the right. Plus I got cast bases for them. http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/320/e/d/mk__ii_v_2_by_kasumidoll-d5l830d.jpg My photography still sucks.

Shuggnuggath Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 To be honest I think I prefer the blue of the guy on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EgoDraconumNigrorum Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 The new mix looks good, its only a fraction of a shade lighter than the previous one on the left, so its all good. - EgoDraconumNigrorum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Silvernale Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 I was concerned the new one was too blue and looked more like metallic crimson fists. Plus I got tired of fighting with the decals and made a rased badge with greenstuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Silvernale Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 Yay update time! I still have some detailing to do, like all the spotlights and give the captain a 40mm base. I used Vallejo "brown iron oxide" powder to weather the greaves and such. I still can't take pictures for poop. Veterans get the bronze packs, while RAF get gunmetal. I made raised badges on the pauldrons for the chapter icon decals I made. http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/346/a/f/executioners_01_by_kasumidoll-d5nvik0.jpg http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/346/b/a/executioners_02_by_kasumidoll-d5nvilq.jpg http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/346/4/b/executioners_03_by_kasumidoll-d5nvipm.jpg http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/346/d/f/executioners_04_by_kasumidoll-d5nvit3.jpg http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/346/6/a/executioners_05_by_kasumidoll-d5nvli5.jpg http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/346/0/0/executioners_06_by_kasumidoll-d5nvljl.jpg http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/346/3/1/executioners_07_by_kasumidoll-d5nvizq.jpg http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/346/8/c/executioners_08_by_kasumidoll-d5nvj2a.jpg http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/346/2/0/executioners_09_by_kasumidoll-d5nvllc.jpg **edit forgot the champion and changed to better pics of the chappy and libby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknown Chronicler Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 wow I really like those colours, and that banner is epic!

NightHunters Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Really nice work brother! As mentioned that banner is fierce, tell me it's free handed? Edit: Sorry one last thing, with them being Executioners, why no axes on the Cap. And Champ? Just a question tho brother, blades look good :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Silvernale Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 The banner is in fact, a decal I made. =O Many cultures used a sword for executions (plus I have no axe bits). ** PS as awesome as your work is, if you think my stuff is good, then I'm thrilled =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studio Silvernale Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Almost done with an objective marker; Fafnir Rann, founder of the Executioners. Since they are based on the Conan novels, I thought I'd do a little homage to the original Ahnold movie where he got the Atlantean sword. http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/365/9/1/executioners_13_by_kasumidoll-d5pusi6.jpg http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2012/365/a/6/executioners_13_1_by_kasumidoll-d5puskq.jpg http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2012/365/4/a/executioners_13_2_by_kasumidoll-d5pusms.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Apostle Thirst Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Your painting is pretty good (even if that banner isn't a true freehand* :lol: ), I'll definitely be watching :woot: *It's still pretty awesome though, you should make more. By more I mean tons. I could seriously go on about it and you will undoubtedly hear lots of praise from people who skipped over the 'not a freehand' part, so please, listen to our misguidedness and do lots of banner transfers :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Silvernale Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Heh the funny part is I made up like 4 pages of potential banners as decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
company veteran Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 how do you make a decal like that?? i must know! awesome work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Silvernale Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 how do you make a decal like that?? i must know! awesome work. First I find the artwork I like. I put it into a MS Word document and size it exactly for the size of the banner. Get some clear decal paper for laser printer and take the file to Kinko's and make them print it out (that way if it jams up the copier its not my fault). Then I use Micro Sol to make the decal conform to the banner; this part takes a few uses. I use a cotton swab to smooth the decal into all the folds and whatnot.

Studio Silvernale Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Update time! Yes, that is a Carcharodon helmet on the base of the one. I figure these guys are Badab War vets, and the chapters they fought a lot were the sharks and the Minotaurs. http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/010/a/1/executioners_19_x_by_kasumidoll-d5r3l8k.jpg http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/010/7/8/exeuctioners_15_x_by_kasumidoll-d5r3l4j.jpg http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/010/d/4/executioners_11_x_by_kasumidoll-d5r2gtj.jpg http://fc05.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2013/010/4/3/executioners_16_x_by_kasumidoll-d5r2gl0.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studio Silvernale Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 Reinforcements! Poor Howling Griffon....

NightHunters Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Great progress brother, I'm really liking these alot! In particular the MLRS look on the Whirlwind is great use of the old metal mini! Also coming back to Axe vs Sword thing, you are of course quite right, cultures will use all sorts to behead, so arguement from me there just for some reason I always felt the Executionors would favour the axe, what with having "Exicutionor" style axe heads as their chapter symbol :D None the less, still look great with the swords brother!

Studio Silvernale Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 If/when I get some assault squads they will have chain axes if I can scrounge some up. The MLRS was a good use of a tic-tac box =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeardMonk Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I know this is a few days old now but im interested in the stuff your doing. Im slowly working on a Executioners strike force, using the IA - Badab War as reference for the colour scheme. Metallic/Silver, Yellow Shoulder insert. Various details on Sergeants/commanders in gold mix. Method - Chaos Black Spray undercoat, Drybrush Boltgun Metal, 1 wash Asurmen Blue & 1 wash Badab Black. Lysander yellow on shoulder insert. Mechrite/Blood Red mix for parts of Bolters etc. Chainmail/Mithril silver mix for shoulder trim. Im trying out a few different methods for Gold details. Im sure these methods are fairly standard but they are quite easy for me having just got back into the hobby. Im working on an AOBR squad that I aquired on the cheap-cheap.

Studio Silvernale Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Well the yellow shoulder pads are assault squads. Green are tactical, purple are devastator and red are recon/scouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHunters Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Inspired use of a Tic Tac box! Did the old WW launchers need much filing to fit? Also think that a chain axe assault squad would be mega! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also think that a chain axe assault squad would be mega! Actually the WW launchers were a perfect fit. I didn't have to do anything but trim one of the nubbies off the back end to line the two halves up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
