Firepower Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Ditto. The guardians are wicked. How about a recipe for the metal? The smurfs are a real 'BAM!' tone of blue, very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceangrave Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Thanks guys :blush: The metal is done with GW paints as opposed to the other brands; 1. Leadbelcher 2. Drybrush Ironbreaker 3. Drybrush Runefang Steel 4. Nuln Oil wash (cleaned up, not too sloppy, unless u wanna do more work) 5. Ironbreaker re-highlight 6. (Characters Only) Runefang edge highlight 7. Army Painter Lacquer (honestly, a really important part, evens out the tones) 2 thin layers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Validar Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I wish I could paint exactly like you do. Very clean, not over the top, but finely executed. You seem to make a decent time versus paintjob thing that could end up in an army. Man, /jealous like you wouldn't believe it. Makes me a bit sad that your bases do not in any way live up to the model. You need to improve that slightly for it to look like a complete work. Premade bases like microarts seems the obvious choice, but you can do tons yourself. Just a bit uneven ground would help (you know those small pieces of wood mom/girlfriend/wife uses for her potted plants? They look exactly like stones on a mini) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see you and lots of folks work wonders with it, and it goes right into those neat little nooks and crannies and crevices, but with me those places seem to be the last place it wants to go. ;) I wonder if I can blame that on cruddy brushes, too.... Anywho, thanks. I'll have to see what I can do with this if and when I feel like springing for the AP Lacquer. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love your work! thanks :cuss I try to make him look good, being my main HQ for this army until i build one of my own, and the sword was done with the Reaper ultramarine triad (then add a bit of white at the end) just in alternating strokes, reaper paint blends reallllll easy so the only water i put into the paint is the water that the brush absorbs when u clean it between colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oceangrave Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Thanks man, right now I am working on the rest of the ultrasmurfs for my client, real quick, takes like 20min per model cuz its just easy drybrushing and then metals, tabletop quality, not like the extents I put my own stuff through.
