Capt Carl Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 So these are part of my ETL vow. I was too eager to post them to wait until the whole vow was done Here's a Leviathan Dred. The Emblem on the yellow shoulder is my coat of arms and will be showing up on a lot of my models from now on Here's a little tac squad and here they are together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavianCool Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Looks great. I was considering collecting Fists for HH but the yellow put me off. I would like to see some closeups though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Carl Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 You can click on the images for a bigger image. For some reason the comp I'm using right now wont copy and paste the pic addresses so I can only include pictures with the media button. Don't be afraid of yellow. Its easier than people think. Well, the bright sunflower yellow is harder but a nice smooth amber (like what I have) is pretty easy with the right paints. White primer (but I've even had good results on black for smaller areas), a couple coats of slightly thinned averland sunset (I rarely need more than 2 or 3) then a coat or 2 of Lamenters yellow glaze turns out really nice.

Thanks for the advice! I was using a really dark undercoat and no matter how many coats I applied it looked awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Capt Carl - great stuff, always love seeing fists painted well i really dig the split scheme on the big guy, a very well done idea! i love the tac squad black face plates, they look very menacing @ DavianCool - using a white undercoat then a base layer of ushabti bone,then blacklining with agrax earth then an all over wash of Casandora yellow glaze makes a really nice yellow very similar to below - @Capt Carl(apologies for the pic,no intent to hijack your thread,if you don't want it here just let me know and i'll remove it no problems ) Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Looks ace. The copy/aste issue could be to do with you using Internet Explorer? Thats the only time I have that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
