Nightmare84 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Thought I would post the test scheme for my grey knights. I didn't reall want to use metallics as I'm horrible with them. So here is a pic of quick tester. Far from finish and was quite rushed but you get the idea. So what do you guys think? http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h444/dpatchy5/Snapbucket/A6EB377E.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/268106-my-grey-grey-knight/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Master Caloth Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 nicely done with the color palette. And beautiful shading work! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/268106-my-grey-grey-knight/#findComment-3265897 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boreas Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Excellent work! The one thing I'd do to "pop" them is to paint light blue eye lenses (use to be ice blue, don't know the new color!). Seem like a detail, but it it makes a difference. One thing I like with grey grey knights is that, unlike silver grey knight, you can weather and "chip" the plates more easily. Don't be afraid to go overbord on some GK heroes!

Nightmare84 Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Have finished the tester except for the eye lenses. Realised I don't actually own any blue paints!!! Will put up a pic when I get some daylight here. I go overseas in 2 days so should be able to knock out 10 or so marines in down time.

Inquisitor Fox Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 When I first read the thread title, I thought I wouldn't like it and it'd look too much like a Space Wolf... I was wrong on both counts :) Excellent work! I agree about the ice blue eyes, they'd add a lot to the model :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/268106-my-grey-grey-knight/#findComment-3267032 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare84 Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Here he is pretty much finished. I noticed a mistake or two but just need to buy some blue paint when I return to sydney so I can finish him. http://i1110.photobucket.com/albums/h444/dpatchy5/Snapbucket/EE48E09B.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/268106-my-grey-grey-knight/#findComment-3267250 Share on other sites More sharing options...
notsoevil Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 A little splash of blue like you plan to add will really make this guy pop. The red on the psybolter is a bit flat still though. I suggest selectively washing it (meaning don't goop it on) with a darker red. But awesome all around.

Nightmare84 Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Red is actually highlighted in 2 stages and orange edged just doesn't show in the photo very well.

Nightmare84 Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Anyone have any experience with traveling overseas with models? Will I have issues with them in my carry on? You know how weird they can be now haha Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/268106-my-grey-grey-knight/#findComment-3267358 Share on other sites More sharing options...
