Ovidius Incertus Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 There are not enough thumbs in the world to give those dreads sufficient thumbs up! Stellar work.

LutherMax Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) Thank you very much Ovidius Back to infantry and I finished another five Intercessors today. This takes me up to 15, so I can field 3x squads in a Battalion detachment but ultimately I will have 30 so I can max out those squads.

marine7312000 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 They look great. And its nice to see I'm not the only one that has an issue drilling the barrels in the exact center.

LutherMax Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 Thanks guys! Welp, I promised when I sold my Blood Angels that I would never wholly abandon the Sons of Sanguinius. The opportunity to come back to them was presented by Indefragable of these very halls, who after buying a few items from my collection commissioned me to paint these two Xiphon Interceptors. And very enjoyable to paint they were too! I hope he likes them and that they serve him well. We'll find out in a couple of weeks as I'm delivering them in person!

Brother Desultor Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 I have to say that not only are your painting skills exemplary, but you compliment them perfectly with your photography skills. In a digital age, that's so very important. I must look on your blog site to see if you still have the photography guide up there.......

Bjorn Firewalker Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 The Xiphons look great! I like the subtle weathering effect. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/282574-luthers-wosp-works-of-slow-progress/page/25/#findComment-5044575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hushrong Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 The primaris Raptors look sharp! Very well painted! The xiphon is also quite the looker.

Dantay VI Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 The raptors are gorgeous However the Xiphons are amazing, but for me the best part is the pilots and the glow from within the cockpit. I am in total awe... How the heck did you do it?

LutherMax Posted March 31, 2018 Author Share Posted March 31, 2018 Thanks for the comments! I have to say that not only are your painting skills exemplary, but you compliment them perfectly with your photography skills. In a digital age, that's so very important. I must look on your blog site to see if you still have the photography guide up there....... The guide is still up (https://www.themightybrush.com/how-to-photograph-miniatures/) although now I have a Foldio3 lightbox, which is awesome! I will post a review at some point. All the principles and the other equipment remain the same as when I wrote the article. The raptors are gorgeous However the Xiphons are amazing, but for me the best part is the pilots and the glow from within the cockpit. I am in total awe... How the heck did you do it? I started by painting the whole cockpit area and pilot a very dark blue (Vallejo Model Air Insignia Blue, to be precise), and then I sprayed the 'dashboard' and pilot white, building up in gradual coats and making sure the direction of the spray came from the lit controls. I sprayed the cockpit glass with many light coats of FW acrylic ink 'Dark Green'. Light coats are important here because the plastic is so smooth and shiny, and you can quickly build up droplets or running with the low-viscosity ink.

KrautScientist Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I was always pretty underwhelmed by the Xiphon model -- until I saw your paintjob on it, that is. Utterly fantastic!

sockwithaticket Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I really like where you deployed the black panels to break up the red.Paint, weathering and transfer work is top notch as we've all come to expect.

Guest Triszin Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Could you let me know how you do the weathering? I am working on tau myself right now that have a similar color scheme to your green Marines and they are just awesome.
