LutherMax Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 A commission for fellow B&C member catastrophe86, here is work in progress on Asterion Moloc. Ivanus is not quite so far along but I will post pics of him soon... http://www.braintyrefire.com/personal/w40k/Minotaurs/AsterionWIP07.jpg http://www.braintyrefire.com/personal/w40k/Minotaurs/AsterionWIP08.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kastor Krieg Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Painting of the metalwork looks awesome, the shoulder pad grey could use more shading perhaps? I'm unsure about the position and really confused by what he has under his raised foot - this looks like a mold overcast part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 Cheers for the comments. @ Kastor the red and grey are only base coated, the grey will be built up to white. The pose looks a bit weird at the moment but that bit under is front foot slots into a bit of scenery supplied with the model that goes on the base.

Thrillhouse Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 This is really amazing! Ive been doing my own minotaurs for a year and a half now, but im not really satisfied with them. Could you be persuaded to give us the recipe for the metal? Doubt i could make it work this good, but always exciting to hear how other people paint metallics.

LutherMax Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Cheers Thrillhouse, no problem, for the metal I use Rub n Buff. It's not a paint, more like a paste but you can drybrush it on. It tends to flick around a bit so best to do it first before moving on to the other colours. The process I used on these guys was: - Tin Bitz basecoat - Nuln Oil wash - Drybrush Rub n Buff Gold - Gryphonne Sepia wash all over - Agrax Earthshade wash on the recessed panels for depth / variation - Mithril Silver edge highlights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God-Potato of Mankind Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Unreal, completely unreal. The level of Minotaur love I see here is crazy! Well done to you sir, mind if I lock you in my basement and force you to paint for scraps of food and brief exposure to sunlight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share Posted January 3, 2014 That actually sounds more appealing than you'd think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Eremon Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 You know, I rather think that Asterion Molok looks more the titanic warrior of ancient legend without that cape of his. Maybe the cape makes him seem more regal, detracting from his image as a warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
