The Night of the Wolf

[Lord Blackwood]

I like 3 and 6

[betrayer41]

Haha wait..... there's only 5

[Lord Blackwood]

Sorry 3 and 5

 

My bad.

[betrayer41]

Haha no worries just wanted to make sure I had it right

 

Those are my favorite as well.

 

The problem with basing them like my wolves is that I ordered in bulk my wolf bases from dragon forge. They're amazing bases but the backlog and turn around time is terrible. So I can just order bases here and there for my custodes

Here's two more still a bit two. I still have the red hair part to do as well as spears. I have 3 more like this but the washes are still drying. I tried to change up the poses a bit. Enjoy!

I like all the bases...

[Dantay VI]

Your models are looking really impressive.

 

I still reckon though that shattered dominion AoS bases would look good, as they might be a nice blend between eldar-y webway and 30K Imperial, the set with 40 & 65mm bases would do Custodes plus dreads, while the 32's and 25's could cover SoS plus other stuff?

[betrayer41]

First ten are done, minus their blades, cuz I'm still figuring out how to paint them.

 

Hoping for a lot mor custode goodies next weekend, enjoy!

I love yer work on the big golden boys D:   So vibrant and striking.  

@ u @  YOU HYPE FOR INFERNO  BRUH 

[betrayer41]

Finally getting some washes and prigments on.

 

They're not nearly as shiny as this in real life, it's the lighting. I am really liking the way they're turning out. The first pic is what I'm goin for! Comments and criticisms are welcome, thanks guys!!

[recon0321]

Looks great to me

[KBA]

Looking pretty damn good! As far as that source material you're going off of, the strong metallics is a hit. I think you might benefit from going a little more on the blue tint, and in my opinion, Forge World's Grey Knight Steel mixed in a little with your recipe would look strong.

 

All in all, very nice kitsch-free wolves

[Corswain]

Russ is looking sweet and that metallic is mind-blowing. Probably the closest thing I've ever seen to a true metallic finish. Outstanding stuff!

I'm really looking forward to Inferno to see what you (and many other Fraters) do once it's out. Exciting times ahead! :)

[betrayer41]

Thanks Fellas. I am very happy with my switch from grey to "metallic grey I think it is working out better than i had hoped. Obviously still learning and tweaking things as i go. But i think it's pretty close to the Artwork.

 

I am BEYOND excited for Inferno. I wasn't expecting to like the custodes and sisters as much as i do. But i am really REALLY happy with how the metallics on both the sisters and custodes turned out. I will be buying pretty much anything and everything that They put out for sisters and Custodes

[recon0321]

Custodes need at least their own box...like a squad of 5 with multiple options...

@betrayer did you go over the Metallic grey your using now?

@betrayer did you go over the Metallic grey your using now?

 I a, hoping for atleast upgrades to be shown next weekend.

 

Do you mean how i achieved that color?

[betrayer41]

So......... this happened Edited January 27, 2017 by betrayer41

[recon0321]

Yea how did you achieve that color?

[betrayer41]

It is primed black.

 

Then I got Vallejo metal color burnt iron and applied it in bursts. You can just over the model very light bursts all over the model until it's more of a grey. If you do too much at once it looks too much like silver or gunmetal.

 

Then oil washes and pigments

[recon0321]

How well do airbrush paints work just using a brush?

[betrayer41]

I prefer airbrush paints over brush paints. Paints need to be thin, and airbrush paints are already thin

Ok so tweaked it just a bit.

[recon0321]

That's great so they're already thinned!! Will have to try it out...I like the metallic look even though there are other legions with these types of colors they all look unique

[Cadmus Tyro]

Looking great at usual bud, what medium do you use for your pigments?

[betrayer41]

To lock them in place?

[depthcharge12]

I love it! What did you do for the rust? Was it pigments?
