Augustus b'Raass Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Glad you're back mate. To conform to your suggestion: :D I love the bikes. I haven't seen anyone convert these into chaos versions - and after your scoop I'm betting you won't stay up there for long. Great work!

Fracture Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 Hello again folks. Once again painting has been somewhat erratic but I do have some WIP pics to put up. The bikes are almost done. just some detailing and lightning to do. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/imagejpg2_zps04609128.jpg Work on my command squad is coming along nicely. These were meant to be for a painting comp on the Night Lords FB page but I still haven't got them finished. I've started using Vallejo for my metallics now, I find them much better than the new GW gold and silver. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/imagejpg1_zpse67b36df.jpg Completed updates soon. I totally mean it this time. Honest.........

Flint13 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Those are looking pretty darn awesome! I don't think I've seen the outrider bikes in midnight clad before. Would you mind elaborating on your recipe for bronze with your newly acquired Vallejo paints? It looks sharp.

Fracture Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Woohoo. Got the command squad finished. Really enjoyed painting these up and think the conversions came out nicely. It was a bit overcast today so colours are a little bit darker than in reality. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/P1250011_zpse2d04b63.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/2015-01-25142725-2_zpsfe0a609b.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/2015-01-25142624-2_zpsb78a3b86.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/2015-01-25142835-2_zpsef7ee400.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/2015-01-25142949-2_zpsa6fc0b04.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/2015-01-25143029_zpsb909c4ca.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v246/Damned_man/The%20Eighth%20Legion/P1250010_zps06be94d4.jpg Flint - Gold is as follows. Base of Brassy Brass followed by a wash of Vallejo brown ink. Re colour of brassy brass mixed with glorious gold. Highlight of pure glorious gold. Edge highlight of Glorious gold with a 50/50 mix with Runefang steel. Final light wash of GW's earthshade. I did take pics for a step by step for the skin tones I do but the didn't come out very well. If people are interested I'll try again and do one for the gold. Hope you all like the newest update.

MrBear Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Very nice! Those Reaver parts are really fitting for Night Lords. I've been thinking to order some myself but now the fight between me hobby and wallet became just a little bit harder...

Augustus b'Raass Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Gosh those are awesome. I'm really envious of your ultra crisp painting style, mate. That ghoulish skintone brings the VIII to a whole new level of creep. And I'll echo MrBear and say that those reavers truly are fantastic for Night Lords! :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286237-send-the-eighth-28115-command-unit-finished/page/8/#findComment-3934703 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Thanks for breaking down the recipe. I'd totally be up for a skin and/or bronze tutorial. Your Nostraman skin tones have an awesome ashy look that I don't think I've seen before. Also, nice giant chainglaive on the command squad. It looks quite lovely. Glad to see another example of Reaver torsos looking *way* better in colors that aren't Sons of Horus Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/286237-send-the-eighth-28115-command-unit-finished/page/8/#findComment-3935161 Share on other sites More sharing options...
