+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 hey Guys! I have just started collecting Space Wolves and I will be posting the finished painted figures in this plog. Any comments are welcome! Here are the first miniatures I have painted: 2 grey hunters, 1 Bloodclaw (my first painted SW figure), 1 Scout and 1 terminator. Soon to come, after applying snow on the base, will be a Runepriest. http://i.imgur.com/MxBZKU7.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/8sO3cUW.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/UDqPE7T.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/38Ohoum.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/XW9mULx.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297408-space-wolves-by-adam-vi-legion-vlka-fenryka/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Wow, very nice and cleanly done. Is it the lighting or have you used different greys for the rune priest the wolf guard & the Blood Claw/ Grey Hunters?

+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Only the Runepriest has a different grey, the others have the same paints used. I'm still experimenting with this type of photos, and I hope the results will be much better in the future.

Firepower Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Ah, good old robin's egg blue. You've done some great shading/highlighting with it there. Things are pretty comprehensively awesome here, really. If I were to plant a flag in something (and I must, by solemn oath) I would say that blue is a less than ideal color choice for power weapons on Wolves. I know I know, ice frost blah blah. But blue on blue, even slightly different shades, doesn't really 'pop' like people (typically) expect power weapons to. Sticking to a cool color scheme in purples or greens would lend interesting results without being too glaring I think. Going with a red or orange or yellow would just make them compete with the iconography and make eyes unhappy :P That one is all personal taste though.

Sohail187 Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 great stuff love the models. Whats the method for the pelts? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297408-space-wolves-by-adam-vi-legion-vlka-fenryka/#findComment-3823589 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted October 4, 2014 Author Share Posted October 4, 2014 Firepower - thanks mate! and thanks for thinging constructively. Actually, I thought about it, but in the end I decided to do the blue power stuff - it's just too fluffy for me, ice frost blah blah exactly ;) But thanks again for your thoughts, I appreciatge them and count on more such expressions in the future (you never know what awesome idea might come out that way :)) Sohail - it was Dryad bark on the whole pelt, then layer gorthor brown on a smaller part, then baneblade brown on an even smaller part, and then karak stone on the lightest parts. Then come the washes - reiksland fleshshade on the whole pelt, then agrax earthshade on the darkest colours. Then drybrush: baneblade on (more or less) the parts painted dryad bark/gorthor brown, and then karak stone on the rest. And voila!

Brother Cambrius Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Looking fantastic brother! The paint job is exceptionally smooth and I love the touch of giving the Runepriest those eerie glowing eyes. On the blue power weapon subject, perhaps to break up the blue, have you considered adding a richer bronze onto the weaponry to add some warmth to the models and have a contrast to the grey and icyness? Maybe as an example, instead of steel for the weapon housing, use a gold/bronze/brass colour? Keep up the awesome stuff!

+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 Thanks! The recipe is: Base Mournfang Brown, Washed with Reiksland Fleshshade, Washed in lower parts with Agrax Earthshade, then drybrush with Deathclaw Brown, Then Drybrush Troll Slayer Orange and a final highlight with Flayed One Flesh (this paint is from the 'Eavy Metal Edge range, I heard it is the same colour as the GW dry paint for highlighting skin).

+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 Hey Guys! Just finished my second termie with bolter and chainfist, hope you like it.

Donkalleone Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Are you Using an Airbrush or how do you get the smooth Transitions?

+Grimdark Prince Adam+ Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 I use GW Lahmian Medium to thin the paints down and apply smooth transparent layers. I actually have 3 bottles of prepared colours for this (Fenrisian Grey, Russ grey and Drakenhof Nightshade for washing), each greatly thinned down with lahmian medium. Although I don't know the exact recipe - the consistency should be something similar to milk. This really speed up the process of painting, as previously I always prepared a small amount of paint before paiting, which took a lot of time.
