Inso Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Lovely work on those tanks :) (and the time spent on the rivets was definitely worth it ;) ) Â I think you need to have a break from tanks and paint some infantry in that gorgeous chocochip camo now :) 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269375-wip-thread-711th-ccab-chocochip-rats/page/31/#findComment-4074953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 I would love to but I am still committed to 3 medusas and a Wyverns worth of rivets for the ETL.

Father Mehman Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Well, looks like I missed another birthday. Hope you had a great one !  Both of those 'Blades made me a bit teary, just seeing them together like that. Think of all the death they will dish out to the Traitor, the heretic, and the xenos villainy. It's almost too much for words ! 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269375-wip-thread-711th-ccab-chocochip-rats/page/31/#findComment-4076468 Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmo Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the birthday wishes but it does not cut any ice with the Commissariat.... Get back to painting for the ETL! Bowing to popular demand, here is a tutorial for my blue spotlight lenses Paints (Paint compatibility guide) Regal Blue Mordian Blue Ice Blue Blue ink Matt white Gloss varnish Method 1. Paint a base of Regal Blue 2. Using Mordian Blue, lightly drybrush a triangle from the centre of the spotlight to the lower edge 3. Lightly drybrush Ice blue over the Mordian Blue 4. Wash with Blue Ink. This will help to blend the shades together 5. Paint a Matt White "T" on the top corner and a white dot just below a shown 6. Paint over with the Gloss Varnish Edited June 8, 2015 by elmo 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269375-wip-thread-711th-ccab-chocochip-rats/page/31/#findComment-4077478 Share on other sites More sharing options...
