Spear of Achilles Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Hesitant to use blue-green metallics, but they are shaping up. Need a better light source :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spear of Achilles Posted December 25, 2015 Author Share Posted December 25, 2015 Thanks...now for their three valks,,,I'm wondering if this shade is charcoal grey or gunmetal with satin coat...there's a lot of purple in the shade and I've got nothing like it in my pallet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommodusXIII Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Mechanicus Standard Grey has a strong purple tint to it, if that helps. It looks like a good match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spear of Achilles Posted December 25, 2015 Author Share Posted December 25, 2015 Axalta RAL 5008 Grey Blue powder coating looks pretty close http://www.simplycoatings.co.uk/ekmps/shops/simplycoatings2/images/axalta-ral-5008-grey-blue-polyester-30-matt-powder-coating-20kg-box--1505-p.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Totally expected Ad Mech guardsmen. Damnable bait and switch thread titles :P Anyway, interesting idea. Not easy to make out the details in these photos, though I do like the metallic-beetle-blue sheen on the shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honda Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Umm...what is that exquisite looking chopper from? Your troopers are looking pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spear of Achilles Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 Umm...what is that exquisite looking chopper from? Your troopers are looking pretty good. That's a King Raven from the game...its a metal kit available on Ebay...right size for 40K valks too... Adding Ciansword ends for the Lancers...have to hit everything with anti-shine cause the old minotaire paints are glossy on drying.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spear of Achilles Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 So, got the three Valkyrie "King Raven" 's, the Company Command Squad and door gunners finished up today http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nsMvXxpYFWc/Vo9o64SzVfI/AAAAAAAAB38/Zge-thpHTXY/s1600/0108160206.jpg http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_j8VuaUO27A/Vo9o6mAFPZI/AAAAAAAAB34/gaKjial7EVY/s1600/Flyer.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Qh_A1cSmw5s/Vo9o7YcrO4I/AAAAAAAAB4A/hclz9BNMYDc/s1600/flyer2.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-nY31-b7G7pg/Vo9o6Xx-wOI/AAAAAAAAB30/irSOQ7aAY3g/s1600/Flyer1.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-aOvlFrt00_o/Vo8k-88GNII/AAAAAAAAB3Y/lZYhfkz949Y/s1600/Command.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IZhIEMWWWhQ/VoeHpCUquYI/AAAAAAAAB2w/24Qdq7l3jis/s1600/Door-gunners2.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-T5fFwqW3SNQ/VoeHotWQalI/AAAAAAAAB2o/oRpHsdR6HwU/s1600/Door-gunners1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommodusXIII Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 What grey did you end up going with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spear of Achilles Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Grey Blue from Model air...which is funny, because they also have a color called Blue Grey. Mostly because I got this for Xmas :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spear of Achilles Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Ok, finished the two vets and CCS up and the 3 valks are done...I could spend forever weathering them, but then I'd have to cahrge him more that two vinyl battle-mats. Airbrushed some matte varnish on to kill the shine of those minitaire paints...now just need to make a do-it-yourself light box and get a good camera :) http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-fF2b_8SMmLc/VpB1v1W59fI/AAAAAAAAB4k/rJ3ymyx7eBI/s1600/Cog1.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-jxANu8upGTI/VpB1vhrozBI/AAAAAAAAB4g/wq94YCqkyzk/s1600/cog2.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4SB-370Mpjc/VpB1v3qkYlI/AAAAAAAAB4o/svSrHRZ8M6c/s1600/cog3.jpg http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-L47pbC63GNM/VpB1wB8KIfI/AAAAAAAAB4s/BCzkgCExTvo/s1600/cog4.jpg http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-e-tleHmTNAc/VpB1wJH8h2I/AAAAAAAAB4w/GoKEPENEdnc/s1600/cog5.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
