Luther's W.o.S.P. (Works of Slow Progress)

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Excellent work on the Space Wolf.

[Chazzmos]

Hey Luther, you got a lovely ivory going on the 'wings' of the Chaplain dreadnought, any chance you can share what colours you used?

Sure, I used the Andrea Color white paint set. Just layered the base and highlight colours in order, coat of gloss varnish, coat of Agrax Earthshade Gloss.

I am a lifelong Space Wolves player but I've occasionally branched out into others (DA, SW, UM, Custodes).  

When Shadowspear came out, I realized there was a chapter better suited to this kind of warfare - but the Raptors appeal to me far more than the Raven Guard, so that's what I'm working on.

Your work is beautiful and an inspiration to me.

YASS! Welcome to the True Chapter – and thanks!!

 

I just finished my second captain, of the 4th Company – the highly decorated Captain Vale...

 

[Brother Desultor]

Stunning.

 

Now excuse me while I throw all of my brushes and paints out with the rubbish....

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Excellent work on CAPT Vale.

[LutherMax]

Thanks guys!

 

And now...

 

This was a very special project, for a very special girl. Emerson is currently fighting leukemia like a BOSS! Her dad is a good friend of mine and when Emerson took a liking to the Sons of the Phoenix space marine chapter, he asked if I would paint a model for her in that scheme. She chose a Redemptor Dreadnought as the subject and it has been a great honour for me to paint it for a girl who, despite everything she has been through, is never without a smile on her face. A true warrior.

 

You can read more about Emerson's story here, and even make a donation to help her in her fight: https://www.gofundme.com/help-emerson-fight-leukemia

The Redemptor looks great! You deserve my compliments for your modeling and painting skills; please pass on my compliments to Ms. Emerson, for her good taste. Edited April 4, 2019 by Bjorn Firewalker

Velvety smooth work there. I can't stop looking at the plasme coils. Just stellar. You sir are an awesome friend.

[LutherMax]

Thanks guys.

 

And now, a much dirtier Dreadnought...

 

[Brother Callidan]

Your work is top notch dude. Love looking at your stuff

[hushrong]

Your paint jobs and detailing is breath taking as ever!

[Sagentus]

the white plate on that redemptor dread is something else! 

[Bjorn Firewalker]

The Leviathan looks great!

[LutherMax]

Thank you for the comments! Much <3!

 

And now, I have returned to my first love, the Blood Angels, and devised a new and more streamlined way of achieving my signature scheme on the armour of this most beloved (or cursed?) of Chapters...

 

[keeblerartillery]

Explain! Now!

 

...cus it’s gorgeous! And looks like you have stepped into the oil game?

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Beautiful work.

You are correct! I have produced a very detailed PDF guide on the whole process - check it out!

 

No pressure to buy of course, but if you do, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed ;)

[keeblerartillery]

Hah! I couldn’t resist. Already did. It’s great quality man! I think I’m going to stick to your original method for the red, but definitely going to incorporate some of the other stuff into my BA!

[LutherMax]

Sounds good - and thanks very much!!

[keeblerartillery]

Disclaimer for all - it’s not that the new method for red is harder (in fact, it IS simpler), I just don’t have the paints for it. If you haven’t already committed to his first recipe, I highly encourage you to check it out and try it out. I have used similar methods when painting other ranges of minis to great effect. Solid work Luther!

[YoungWolf7]

Which paint range are we talking about? His previous was mostly Vallejo Air.

[Noctus Cornix]

This might seem a bit odd, but where did you get those candles that you used with the Redemptor Dreadnought from?

Do one for Relictors and it’s an instant buy from me!
