Drunken Angel Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I ordered a Caestus Assault Ram on New Years Eve from forge world, its arrived last friday I assmebled it over the weekend and got the foundation work done. This is the first large resin model I have ever done, I am going for the weathered look. here are a few close ups. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y223/Weathered/CaestusWeathering_zps166eb57b.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y223/Weathered/Caestusoverveiw_zps02bec6b0.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptphoenixck Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 not bad at all! I would suggest rubbing graphite along some of the edges as it gives it the used look. Give IA Masterclass a look over as well. Good luck an'all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 It sure looks like it's been through a lot - well done Drunken Angel! Look fwd for more of this wear and tear! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azatoth Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I agree that it looks fine. I do suggest to add a wash layer or two, to increase contrast. It will make all those edges pop out better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Aye, a controlled wash of diluted Biel-Tan Green/Argax Earthshade Shade would really do the trick. Good start :tu: Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Angel Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Thanks for the advice and encouragement guys I am feeling my way on this one I probably should have picked something less ambitious to practise on but I am still enjoying this project hugely and have learnt a lot about the damage/weathered technique, maybe build another Caestus after this or break out my third Storm Raven. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y223/Weathered/P1140003_zpsa74660f0.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y223/Weathered/meltastrike2_zps1cfc442f.jpg Washes in progress on the melta hits that did no damage to the ceramite plating the 5++ invun held Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
