Firepower Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Looks wicked to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theduke08 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 Thanks Firepower. There are some subtle purples and sepia in the armor but the light and poor camera dont really show it. I painted 2 Custodes in the traditional gold scheme from GW and was not really digging it. I really like lil legends studios Custodes and how much darker they were in terms of golds. Now I need to determine what accent colors im going to go with? Purple would pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nostromo Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The marble effect is astonishing - thanks for the tutorial. And i like the alternative color scheme MUCH more than the traditional one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theduke08 Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 The gold was something like this. Based with blighted gold from P3 from my airbrush. Highlighted with radiant platinum from P3 from my airbrush. I used a fairly diluted wash of agrax on the whole fig. After this I use sepia and purple washes for the deepest recesses. You can add some highlights of the radiant platinum and your choice of silver to the armor as well. I really, really like P3 paints. They are very smooth and are typically thinned much more than GW/Vallejo paint in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betrayer41 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Wonderful, just oredered some platinum, that is the exact highlight im looking for. Questions for your airbrush what do you thin the platinum with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I'd suggest painting the hand grips on the Guardian spear another colour as the red is too bright and attracts the eye to the spear rather than the main areas of the model. Otherwise, looks good. :tu: Theduke08 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theduke08 Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 I thin almost everything with windex. Some people are afraid to use it through their airbrush but ive never had an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frostbit3 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Maybe switch spear and plume to purple or a deep blue. Love the armor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
