Boc's 2025 WIP Thread (CtA catchup, Deathwatch WIP 7/24)

[Boc]

Tzeentch Abominant, Slaanesh Despoiler, Khorne Lancer

 

Tzeentch will have some yellow paneling, Slaanesh white, and khorne black. I've got the gloss varnish on so will be taping off sections tomorrow to ideally finish paneling before going nuts on metal spraying 

 

 

 

[Boc]

Question for non colorblind people on the Tzeentch knight, what color should I do the trim? I'd initially thought I'd use silver, but I'm not sure if they'd stand out enough from the skeleton. Though the skeleton is going to have double rust washes, so maybe it'll throw the tint off enough that it'll be fine.

 

 

of course the lancer is standing on Ultramarines, because Ultramarines are nerds.

 

 

All the trim here will be gold.

[Firedrake Cordova]

Tzeentch's traditional colour is gold - if you used a darker one, it would probably contrast OK with the yellow and blue.

 

Having said that, a silver or gun metal would work too  

[Boc]

Wooooooooooo

 

Really happy how this came out. I used more layers of weathering and actually used ChatGPT a lot for keeping track of minimum dry times and other steps. At one point instead of "panel" I typed "Penelope" so ChatGPT now calls it Penelope.

 

So I proudly present Penelopia Diabolica.

Got a little bit more work in on the Lancer, but made the mistake of trying to put ink on top of a gloss varnish for the tip of the lance. I'll fix it tomorrow and then get on to the couple days worth of weathering.

 

 

I may have to try some free hand with a graffiti of "G-man sux"

[Boc]

And pretty boy has been finished.

 

 

 

The Slaanesh Despoiler is coming along well, I think I'll finish trim tomorrow and optimistically get to decals.

 

[Boc]

So CtA is where I tend to let my individual log die a bit, so let's do a little catchup post to consolidate stuff from there.

 

Despoiler all done

 

Two Black Templar Ballistus dreadnoughts done

 

Black Templar Impulsor done (cabin shots because I'm happy how they came out)

 

Black Templar Gladiator/impulsor done

 

And now the current WIP... a Deathwatch Repulsor and Gladiator.

 

Not much of a change up here from the BT, just used gunmetal to aluminum for the secondary color instead of the white volumetric. I'll be doing decals and initial oil washes tomorrow, I think I'll finish super late Friday or early Saturday.

 

 

That's it for now, I've got a lot of EC primed and ready to get cracking on while weathering steps are drying on these guys.
