Brother Pheidias Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I'd always pictured Keshigs in Tartaros, but the modified Justaerin (is that right?) look superb Looks like regular old Cataphractii to me. Justaerian have more spikes, and I belive cabling on the chest. Funnily enough, the Keshig of Jaghatai is described as wearing Cataphractii armour when Ilya Ravallion first go to the Khans chambers...

I'm tempted to get into them but I'm afraid they'll a.) lose their luster if I "affix" it or b.) dust off when I place the models in their cases I'm also debating what I should do for bases. The white begs for a sandy, dusty base, but I also like SWM's swamp bases with water effects.

You've hit an awesome happy medium with it. I look forward to more! The lines between the red and white are so clean on everything as well. What do you do to have it be so?

You've hit an awesome happy medium with it. I look forward to more! The lines between the red and white are so clean on everything as well. What do you do to have it be so? Full disclosure: I am a lazy painter :P but that's not always a bad thing I think. But it forces me to try other methods. I see many beautiful paint jobs and ask people about them, but they take wayyyyy too many steps for me as I want to have a painted force to play on the table with. Honestly the secret is learning to master an airbrush, it helps so much with the blending. http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/1DDCD11A-B817-46FA-9CE9-B8D7089A4812_zps4yr9mppp.jpg I tried cleaning up the eyes^^ I didn't realize how sloppy they were till I saw the pictures on a large screen :P Like I said, I'm lazy and/or broke, so the eye lenses came out of such a mindset. I mixed White Scar with some Sons of Horus green to get a light bluish-green that I liked. I was actually hoping for a jade green, but I liked the new color so I decided to stick with it! I copied the same technique for my sicaran viewports but used a wash of coelia greenshade as there were way too many recess. As for the red/white...I actually hate it. I screwed up the masking and allowed red paint to flow underneath so I had to go bad with a white scar/Typhon ash mix to correct it - close up you can see brush lines :( As for the weathering, it's my attempt at trying to make a skavenblight dinge. I mixed black and grey with a hint of brown to get a mud/dirt effect Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333326-brotherhood-of-the-sacred-sun-ws-plog/#findComment-4732953 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about doing a tutorial next anyway so I'll keep you abreast. I think I would recommend using a grey base rather than a brown base like I did for my white Scars - I feel it's more fitting for WEs but I'll definitely post my method for you!

depthcharge12 Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 I've gotten a few requests on how I do my white so I just wanted to put it up for anyone looking for a starting spot :) you will need an airbrush though! (It's half the battle in all honesty) So I start off painting these WS Keshig guys with Zandri Dust air over a Vallejo black primer: http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/0A70F601-E33A-46DC-BA01-62541D646F6E_zpsl7n4eqlc.jpg Then, I add some white to the leftover Zandri dust in the bowl, trying to get a lighter khaki color. The first Zandri coat you can be wayyyy more liberal in application, but you want this second coat to be a bit more precise as you need to think about shading and shadows. It's about a 50/50 White Scar air to Zandri dust thinned down (will require a visual judgement call): http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/3E3485ED-A3B0-4495-B1E0-73BB57CFFED6_zpscwgt50zg.jpg You can see the difference in the first and second model from the right contrasting against the ZD layer: http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/0CD47001-5E81-4CB8-B524-02A8A4370219_zpshdesuozp.jpg Next I do a 75/25 mix from the leftovers in the bowl WS/ZD. It's not this pure white as it just needs to be mixed, I just wanted to show the proportions: http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/AF3A3D76-394F-48DD-83AB-354797FE3C83_zpsbdk79tel.jpg You can see the difference between the three in the foreground and the lighter contrast to the previous coat (two in the background): http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/2524336E-89FC-4DFF-B132-5F65F724896C_zps0gziaudm.jpg Finally, I hit the topmost areas from nearly a 90 degree angle from the model with pure WS: http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/4C6A000F-48A5-4BC4-90DA-8A7A5B179180_zpsf56p6wza.jpg And here's just a good close up to illustrate the shading effects so it doesn't look caked up or ham handed :P http://i911.photobucket.com/albums/ac316/treacyjohn2/6EF63B3E-01A9-487F-8BDD-DE81C3406A23_zpsjwojynhf.jpg I hope that helps some of you! There are different ways to tweak it, but it would work well with DG and WS, but I'd recommend a grey instead of khaki for a WE undercoat :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/333326-brotherhood-of-the-sacred-sun-ws-plog/#findComment-4738706 Share on other sites More sharing options...
