Ashen Griffons, a homebrew chapter by BBJ

[space wolf]

I love the detail you put in the little badges on the bladeguard. How on earth did you paint a skull that small?

[Inquisitor lorr]

Your colour palettes and execution are just perfect. I really am jealous of these guys - they look brilliant. Love the whole scheme.

[Guest Triszin]

Lovely grey on the armor!

I believe that is a decal, space wolf, but I would be very interested to know if it is freehand, because I've NEVER been able to get anything done that finely and I'm very interested in some tips...

 

BBJ, the pieces you have produced already are awe inspiring! You've got a damn mastery of your colors, that's for sure, and your cloth texturing is fantastic!

They're mostly decals from the transfer sheet that came with Indomitus, a few bits are freehanded but mostly decals.

[The Mad Hermit]

All of it is incredible.

 

All of it.

 

Not to take anything away from the miniatures at all but... I am CRAZY IN LOVE WITH YOUR BASES.

[blackbabyjesus]

Some work in progress on the outriders, another few hours and they'll be done and I'll have only 2 models left to paint from indomitus!

That's the product, I use the geek gaming basing glue. Takes about 20 seconds per base!

[Llagos_Tyrant]

The scheme and your great paintjob really makes all of these models pop. Great work!

[blackbabyjesus]

Finished up the outriders last night, captain is up next and then I need to figure out what to do with the Judiciar, I really don't like the head on that model, so will probably change it.

[Shovellovin]

Great work on the outriders!

 

How are you applying the static grass to your bases? I recently tried static grass on a base for the first time. The result was not good. Any tips you’d care to share?

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Excellent work on the Outriders.

[Graymane]

I knew i had seen this paint scheme somewhere!

 

Absolutely superb. I love your work so far and look forward to seeing more!

 

Cheers,

I literally just dip the bases in this stuff;

Thank you! I’ll give that stuff a try. 

[blackbabyjesus]

Sorry for the mega delay, I got sidetracked by the Badab War and also Epic Armageddon!

back to the regularly scheduled grey and yellow :D

[Sherrypie]

The various textures on your models are a pleasure to behold, especially the cloth and leathers.

[Pearson73]

Super nice paintwork on display here, I like the colour scheme too, the warm yellow works nicely with that dark grey.

[Freakshow668]

My god! That is beautiful.

[space wolf]

Beautifully painted. Really like the detailing on your leather!

[Brother Dallo]

That’s a lovely looking model. Kudos.

Finished off the ten man intercessor squad this afternoon. Had another go at painting a black skin tone, I think this one was less successful than the last.

[Ovidius Incertus]

These are great.  Uncluttered scheme and very tidy painting.  Just enough weathering. 

[Bjorn Firewalker]

Fine works, blackbabyjesus.

They look a bit like my own chapter
