AshenKnight Posted November 29, 2013 Author Share Posted November 29, 2013 I got a second guy almost complete as well and I think he's even better than this guy. Either way I won't upload him until I get the full squad done - with proper photos and it should look quite nice. Either way, very happy with where I'm at. :) It's damn hard to agree on a standard, the painting these days is so outrageous on these websites that sell them you set yourself up with a self-expectacny failure!

geektom Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Looks great! If this is how you are starting off, you will be awesome. You are right about how the Internet has raised expectations, but it also provides sites like this one where you can get advice and inspiration! Keep it up!

GhostMalone Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I like it but my one issue is simple; I hate grey knights :D And until they remove the fluff where draigo (a space marine) carving his name into mortarion (primarch deamon prince of nurgle) heart I will refuse to play them like them or collect them. But yours is good ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booyah Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Hiho, third modell ever?? I hate you All jokes aside, my third modell was "painted" with marker pens. Now seeing this I´m thinking: Holy s***, already doing some kind of osl (last pic, terminator's hand with the nemesis weapon). Unbelievable! If you are already this good I can't wait to see what your able to do in like a year or so. Keep going brother -Boo- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhetoricus Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Looking Fabulous AK. Impressive stuff. I think metals are definitely an area where my skills still let me down. I should do something about remedying that really. Keep it up bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olgerth Istaarn Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Can you post the recipe for the metal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshenKnight Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 It's pretty basic. Black prime. Mix black and boltgun and thin it down, go over all the model. Wash it reasonably heavy with black nuln oil. Go over with a fresh, slightly thinned boltgun on all the raised SURFACES. Hit the raised EDGES with a mithril silver highlight.

Olgerth Istaarn Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Sorry to be daft, but what is nuln oil? Is it what Chaos Black is called these days? And thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Badab Black was the old name for it. Black wash basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
