Tzen Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 Ta chaps! Stegadon Green > Coelia Nightshade wash > Steg green edge highlights > Sotek Green Highlights > Temple Guard Blue Highlights > 50/50 white/Temple Blue highlights. All edge highlights. Hope that helps, when I eventually get round to a small traitor guard force this is the colour they will be in! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/28/#findComment-4236729 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathspectersgt7 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 The robes !!! Liked this set from FW the one holding his head is my favorite.

hushrong Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Ta chaps! The Amhara Ghal and the Gal Vorbak together just look awesome! That picture alone is swaying me to the ways of the Word Bearers. Join us! And we can rule the galaxy as fa... no wait... wrong setting... JOIN US ANYWAY! You have no idea the temptation. I have been wanting to make a diabolist ever since I saw the artwork. Plus, with Zardu, the sword slaves, Gal Vorbak, and the Mhara Gal their is just so much warp tainted seduction tugging at the heart in me. The psyker is also looking good! The robes look outsanding and I cannot wait to see him and the "ultimate brain-freeze" guy finished. I also know the feel about wanting a mini just to work on it. For me it was stuff like the 2009 Gamesday Chaos Champion for starters but I just saw a Ghostkeel the other day and...

Tzen Posted November 28, 2015 Author Share Posted November 28, 2015 I think I own all of the Word Bearers 30K characters now, and its for the same reason you mention hushrong. They are just so chaotically characterful! :D I also had all the Games Day models in blisters waiting to be painted a while ago, but I seem to have lost most of them whilst moving house :( Another quick WIP pic of my rogue psyker. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/psy2.jpg Still early days yet, but so far so good!

Tzen Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share Posted November 29, 2015 First of the rogue psykers done! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/psk1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/psk2.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/psk3.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/psk4.jpg There's been a few learning curves on this guy, but over all I am happy with him. Truth is I love the model so much it has been a joy to paint. I get the feeling the second one may not turn out as well due to it not being this guy!

Biohazard Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 He looks awesome buddy. I do love that model. I'm sure the next guy will turn out just as good though.

Tzen Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share Posted November 29, 2015 Cheers Bio. I think I will do the second guy with his uniform in the same blue as the robes. Don't think I have seen many traitor guard in those colours.

Warsmith Uveron Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Love it. That model is now going to be in my next Forge World Order!

hushrong Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 He came out great! My favorite little detail are the lifeless eyes on the head on his belt buckle.

Tzen Posted November 30, 2015 Author Share Posted November 30, 2015 Thanks chaps! Really glad you like! My personal favourite part is the vial of blood. Mainly because it took me ages to work out, and has turned out well in these photos! Looks nearly empty! :D Not sure if anyone else really notices that sort of thing, with their being two heads so two focal points.

Tzen Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 Ta Stepper! :D Quick WIP shot of the second of the renegade psykers! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/2psy1.jpg I really like this colour. I think it looks dark enough to say "bad guy" but still a legitimate enough of a shade to be used by a normal guardsmen. Maybe they were from a very dark planet!? Sorry the pics is a little blurred.

Daemon2027 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I always thought hat guy was a victim of the psyker, not one himself. Looking on the FW site it appears ive been wrong all these years! Again the fabric is wonderful, such a fantastic colour.

Looking on the FW site it appears ive been wrong all these years! Again the fabric is wonderful, such a fantastic colour. I don't think you are the first person to have thought that, and I know you wont be the last! :D When I bought them a friend I was in the store with pretty much said "you know that's the psyker's victim right?" until I pointed out the FW website and the fact that he has little cables sticking into his head and onto the weird ass collar thing he is wearing. This paint job may actually go all wrong when it comes to painting whatever it is that is going on around the head. I have literally no idea where to start with it. It's very very odd. I mean, it looks like a gas mask... but then it looks like it might be skin... or maybe it's both... :S Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/28/#findComment-4240186 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daemon2027 Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I think it's because he looks like a normal trooper. Maybe paint it as a mask.

GrandMagnus Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I can't say enough how much I like the colour of the cloth. Really, really nice looking. Maybe he's from a night world and that's why the colours are so dark ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/28/#findComment-4240238 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 Yeah, that's my thinking too! Before these minis I would never have thought about doing some renegade guard, but I may do a small force at some point in the future in these colours! :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/278640-tzens-word-bearers-wip-blog/page/28/#findComment-4240243 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share Posted December 1, 2015 The second renegade psyker is finished! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/psy2.2.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/psy2.1.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/psy2.3.jpg I haven't put as much time into this guy as I did the floating variant. Out of the two, this is my least favourite and I really just bought the blister for his airborne brother. However I did enjoy painting this chap much more than I thought I would, and I have been sufficiently enthused enough to want to start a renegade force in the future. Albeit just a small one to go along side my Chaos Marines. I think it will be some terrain next! Need to fill up my table with some more ruins... after that who knows... a Primarch keeps whispering the dark gods demands in my ears... so do some heresy marines....

Biohazard Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 He looks great buddy. Really like the eye lenses and the colour of the uniform. Would be interesting to see a Traitor Guard decked out like that.
