Prot Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Yea, so this is about my 5th or so Ultra army. I'm doing a bit different take on the recipe. So far I'm liking it. Here's what I've managed to do so far: TheArtilleryman, firestorm40k, Brother Captain Sirus and 25 others 12 16 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/381620-my-new-ultra-army/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrawlingCleaner Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 Absolutely sublime work, Prot. That blue armour with chipping and the checkerboard is bloody gorgeous!

Firedrake Cordova Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 They look great - the chips and dings are really nice, and the checkerboard on the power fist (with chips) is really nicely done MithrilForge and Prot 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/381620-my-new-ultra-army/#findComment-6002366 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson73 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Excellent as per! The Captain's sword blade is particularly well done.

Prot Posted November 16, 2023 Author Share Posted November 16, 2023 9 hours ago, Sgt.Sangha said: The bases look amazing! Mind sharing the technique? Thank you. It's a pretty easy system I came up with. I use the base recipe (just with different colours) for most of my armies now. I take Vallejo mud... any kind/colour since it gets painted. And various cork bits or resin I have laying around and I just slop it on the bases. Then I start with mid/dark browns, oranges, yellows, white and I put spots of them on a dry palette. Add water, and slop the colours on and mix and match as you see fit to give a sense of different minerals/rust etc on the ground. Then after it's dry it's a matter of simple drybrush in progressive lighter colours until you're happy. (I take some of my base mixture, add water and coat the feet/shins of the model to ground them in their base environment.)

MithrilForge Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Looking Great, I do love this take on the Ultra's indeed, that fade on the Blue is really nice, your Painting just keeps getting better and better. bases are cool and really help the models pop!! another lucky buyer in the near future ...
