Ishagu Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I've been collecting a 30k army for a few months now and have a decent sized SoH and Mechanicus force. I wanted to showcase a few of the models in my collection, and also to give praise to a particular painter. I paint most of my own minis however from time to time I feel that my skills, although decent, can't do certain models justice. I contacted Richard from a studio called Superbly Painted Miniatures and the results speak for themselves. He's the one who painted my second Horus model (shown below), the Contemptor Dread and the Event only Navigator. You can see how the Justaerin Terminators I painted just don't compare... So... here's a few pics :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295091-just-wanted-to-showcase-a-few-models/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I wish I could paint flesh as good as that. He does good work.

Fire Golem Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Man whoever painted that Horus is an artist... And your Justaerian look pretty damn good too!

Ishagu Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Yeah, once I'd seen his work I knew he was the guy to paint a showpiece like the Primarch!

Reyner Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 How was the green done on Loken and the ones you painted? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295091-just-wanted-to-showcase-a-few-models/#findComment-3775747 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 How was the green done on Loken and the ones you painted? Fine layers of Sotek Green, washed with Nuln oil or another dark oil, and then highlighted again in Sotek Green. The result is very similar to the FW art and pictures and achieved without mixing and matching multiple paints.

Reyner Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Nice :) an actual simple SoH green that I might be able to pull off. I'll give that a go.

Russ Brother 92 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Firstly your other minis are beautifully painted - secondly I must commend your choice of painter, the face and armour on Horus are quite simply astounding.
