Sherrypie Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Excellent work once again, the blue is an interesting variant for a Mortis scheme and your weathering is great. Out of curiosity, do you add it on after main colours or use chipping methods beforehand?

winterdyne Posted December 10, 2020 Author Share Posted December 10, 2020 I normally do weathered paint jobs 'clean' first, then gloss, decal, and add the weathering at the point so everything blends in. I don't normally varnish the decals before doing chipping / overpaint work and just topcoat everything together. However I should do, really, and if I were doing competition / high grade work I probably would. Definitely would if I were using oils. The blue is something I don't often do for black (especially not quite so saturated), so thought I'd give it a try as I wanted a different feeling black between the armour and the banners. I quite like it, but the white backdrop does make it seem a bit stronger than it is in hand. The process on these was: Prime black. Airbrush zenithal passes metallic black up to steel. Stipple red-brown and orange for rust. Agrax the feth out of it. Drybrush up. Basecoat panels by hand (black / mephiston red). Sketch highlights and blend back. Glaze down red with Fleshtearer red contrast. Basecoat gold. Skeleton Horde Contrast over the gold. Highlight gold. Edge highlight with gold/steel mix. Gloss. Do base while waiting for gloss to dry fully (leave it a day at least). Decal. Chipping (edge highlight mixes for panels, darkish brown mixes) Streaking (thin browns, various). Attach banners (I tend to do batches of these in advance for each variant of titan - saves inevitably messing up a sheet of decal paper). Airbrush dusty filter over leg panels, a bit on top but not much. Touch up base /rim/edge. (Still need to play with the base colour on the 2nd reaver as I've obviously forgotten what I did with it and didn't write it down.) Top satin varnish.
