Ganders Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 So I've recently joined the 30K revolution and eventually chose the pre-Heresy Death Guard as my legion of choice. Specifically the 11th Chapter of the 6th Great Company of the 14th Legion. I'm going to use this thread to post what I've done so far and the things I will continue to work on. Any comments and constructive critisisms are welcome.

furstyferret Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Great looking Death Guard you have there! Loving the photo effects as well. I'd love to be able to do that with mine.

ckpmax1108 Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 Amazing work Ganders. I'm really digging the creamy white mixes and umber washes you have. Would love to see your Mortarion in other angles too!

Ganders Posted November 25, 2015 Author Share Posted November 25, 2015 Thanks ckp, I'll post more of him soon.

Warmasterwillie Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Excellent work my fellow death guard brother! I see you’ve opted for not much weathering effects on your min’s, was that a creative choice? What did you us for the photo effects? I might have to have a try Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316199-ganders-pre-heresy-death-guard/#findComment-4235851 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganders Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 Thanks Willie. Yeah I just went for little or no weathering when I first started my death guard and I liked the look I stuck with it. I have a Flesh Tearers army that is incredibly weathered and a Grey Knights army that is in factory floor condition so just depends on my mood. (Both in my signature) I do like to make the Death Guard bases particularly grimy and damaged though. Also the photo effect is from an android app called Photo Studio which was a free app of the day a while ago when amazon did such things.

Warmasterwillie Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I'll have to check and see if it’s available on IOS, im pretty much a noob to miniature photography so need all the help I can get to make my work look snazzy. Do love the bases, where did you source the bits for them?

Ganders Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 The bits are literally just bits and pieces from my bitz box, and cork mat.

Ganders Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share Posted November 26, 2015 Finished the bases. http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii160/gordonayr/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20151126_231101_zpskjyupg4z.jpg And I use a mix of 60/40 sepia and lahmian medium with a highlight of pallid witch flesh. Its a slight variation on the forge world recipe from their website.

Urauloth Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 These are fantastic, excellent work on the modeling and painting fronts. I really like your bases, by the way - how are you painting them?

Ganders Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 Thanks for the feedback. The bases are primed black, then drybrushed with mechanicum grey, then slaanesh grey, then ushabti bone then finally with pallid wych flesh. I then paint the metal areas with leadbealcher and drybrush them with runefang steel. I also add in any extra colours such as the emperors children's purple shoulder pad in one of them. They are then given a healthy wash of earthshade. The rust effect is done by stippling boombull brown, then stippling bugmans glow over that then finally stippling fire dragon bright. And that's it.
