our_baz Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) Through a twist of fate, got a cheeky couple of hours in today. Got most colours down, then realised I used the wrong blue for the commissar, on my previous I used an really old bottle of deadly nightshade which gives a slightly glossy end product rather than the flat I've got here Edited June 15, 2015 by our_baz CyderPirate, elmo and WarriorFish 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

our_baz Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) Completed commissar for ETL vow, added a photo of the current commissars in the Life guards, in daylight as the desk lamps were making them look darker than they are. You can also see the difference between the two blues I used in the light.

Vel'Cona Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 All I can think when I look at this pic is "If I take out that other Commissar then I'LL get the power sword!"Â Ulrik_Ironfist and our_baz 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) UPDATE: final four here we go. White done, applying rest of base colours not the neatest work I've ever done put gratifyingly quick progress. Mind also wandering to second vow options: 10 scions new paint scheme, different to my normal could be quick to paint. Could also drop to 5 man squad. PCS in ceremonial uniform (mordian models) CCS in combat uniform (Cadian models) Thoughts from the barracks?

WarriorFish Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 They look great, I'm really enjoying all the Bullgryns so I'll have to get back to my squad once the ETL is over :tu: As for your next vow I want to see some Stormies :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) UPDATE: hoping to have these guys done by Sunday. Another colour added to the list that hate using drawf flesh. As you can see, skin bar highlights done. Silver laid down and muddied up with agrax. Also started weathering on tracks.

WarriorFish Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Nice work, the white is looking good so I can see they're almost done :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Cheers WF. I really wish they were done! Got an itch to start a new project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 They are massive models, I underestimated the work required a bit for mine so it must be that much worse when doing lots. However it is all clearly worth it as you've created a colour scheme that fits in neatly with your army so they're going to be a great feature to any battlefield :) What are the next projects you have in mind? I've got a few ideas for after the ETL but I've not decided yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus some PA based ideas running around my head!But must get these brutes done first. WarriorFish 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

our_baz Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 UPDATE: These guys are great fun to paint but soooo big. Seems like its taking forever. Silver done, tracks need quick ironbreaker drybrush, skin still needs highlighting. Started putting the blood red down, haven't got as far as the bone 'ead yet, eyes failing for the night. Tomorrow is another day! WarriorFish and scatmandoo 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Keep at it baz, they'll be done before you know it and it'll be more than worth it :D our_baz 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

our_baz Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 No visual update tonight. Bodies finished on slab shield wielding bullgryns. Said shields now attached and base red applied. Bone 'ead just has highlighting and brute shield painting. Oh and forgot bases! Think Sunday completion is still on. Thanks for all the encouragement guys.

morroccomole Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 I also use white for the cloth of my infantry uniforms, and I am curious what you use to wash or give depth to yours? Someone told me a mix of 1 part nuln oil : 2 parts water would work, but how about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone told me a mix of 1 part nuln oil : 2 parts water would work, but how about you? Fortress grey base, followed by dry brush of white scar to help pick out the depth. The thin coats of white keeping grey in the recesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morroccomole Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Either I don't have the right brushes, or I am just retarded, but I have never been able to figure out how to properly drybrush Edited June 26, 2015 by morroccomole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Either I don't have the right brushes, or I am just retarded, but I have never been able to figure out how to properly drybrush :unsure: I used a citadel medium on the bullgryns, and an army painter small on my grunts. Best advice I can give is apply paint to tip of brush then remove ~99% of the paint on kitchen towel. Then brush over model at 90 degrees to any crevices.

our_baz Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) #Update# Warning Image Heavy Complete test model for Scions for ETL vow.
