Dragonlover Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Holy crap, you're doing each bit individually? Or was that just so you got maximum spray coverage? Dragonlover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 I basecoat individually, then paint limb by limb. I like to make sure I get everywhere when I paint and with a model as large and detailed as this I find it hard completely assembled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 My test mini. Didn't want to start painting the big guy till I was certain on a couliur, made sure the guy had some flesh bone and armour To make sure Ican test all colours and be happy with it http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/IMAG0196_zps33f03f2a.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 I just had a thought that perhaps this guy should have a cannon instead of a flamer and be played as a defiler instead of daemon Prince for size reasons, I would very much prefer him as a Prince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon0321 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 That would be a cool defiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 That's what I'm beginning to think. And I'm hoping when I'm done I can enter it in a painting competition and I have a feeling they have to be based apropriately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrundle87 Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 Okay so I've been flatout the last few days. Busy at work and preparing for Christmas so I have achieved very little, However I had to see how my imagined colour scheme would look so I painted the head to see the bone and flesh and a shoulder paint to see the armour and trim. http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/IMAG0208_zpsf7448c58.jpg http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/IMAG0205_zps71c5e079.jpg I know it's very little to go on but any thoughts? I think the red may need to be duller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Mustard Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 a dark red or light brown or even purple wash could be nice on the red to make in more profund or a lining to separe your metallic parts It´s hard to tell from your pictures it could be the lights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrundle87 Posted December 27, 2013 Author Share Posted December 27, 2013 So since I've made the decision to turn this guy into a defiler rather than daemon Prince. Much better idea I think due to size reasons, I've had to make a few alterations, I've changed the flamer to a cannon whigh I have no photos of but here's some others, replacing the wings, still need some GS in there http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0221_zpszcck7smt.jpg And um think shoulder mounted twin linked heavy bolters, not entirely sold on that idea yet though http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0222_zps6wuotpsp.jpg http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0223_zpshndbgajf.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Looking amazing. Excellent kit bash and green stuff work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Honestly, I am 100% digging the shoulder heavy bolters. I think if you just added some kind of clamp to the side of them that integrated into the torso as well as a belt feed down to a drum near his butt (which would add some girth to the thin waist area the daemon prince has) it would look the business. The dreadnought backpack is a nice change as well, really like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon0321 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Really like the heavy bolter and dread back engine back is nice also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrundle87 Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 After a cypher distraction, finally starting to get some paint in the big fella , http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af171/skrundle87/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0246_zpsht3n3fxy.jpg Thoughts?

Skrundle87 Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 I'm realising I'm not happy with the pinky flesh look I don't think, I think I will be altering it back to the way my test mini is a greyer flesh colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Going with the darker flesh sounds good. Maybe get a different colour into it too with the shade. Give it a slight unnatural look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrundle87 Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Any tips on a good way to go for that look? All I've got in mind for it is maybe a blue wash with some grey flesh highlights? Or maybe a black wash with the same. However that'd give more of a dead flesh look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon0321 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Blue wash or purple might do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
