Warriors of iron... added pics to 2nd host


Recommended Posts

Finished up the CCW armed ones today, one more squad to go. :angry: When the last tactical squad is done, I'll post some pics of the whole group, then I'll get to work on more tanks. Getting kinda bored of mithril silver slowly... :unsure: Comments?

drool.gif Brilliant work. How do you achive your silver ? happy.gif
I thought I answered that earlier, but oh well.

Mithril silver base.

Wash with chaos black + tank brown(VMC)

Wash with chaos black+tankbrown(VMC)+dark angels green

Wash with Chaos black + just a little tankbrown, the mix should be almost black.

 

Then I paint scratches, pockmarks etc. with mithril silver.

 

wow they look really good just like the rest of your stuff, i really like the Chevrons, can you tell me how you did the?

 

Fiery orange base color on the chevrons.

Then I mix in white to the fiery orange for a successive highlight

Then I mixed in sunburst yellow for another highlight.

And finally I used sunbrst yellow +white for final highlights.

 

The army is progressing really well. Even if you used my least favorite chaos head, LOL.

I think it looks pretty good on a chaos marine, depending on how you paint it. The guy I made looks like he's been in warp for quite some time, and has had the ill fortune of having something less than nice happen to his face. Actually, he's got some cables running into his head in the back of his head, the idea is that his whole head is mostly bionic, and the flesh is having problems staying on. :rolleyes:

Brilliant Chronophague, just spectacular. You definitely have the gritty feel of the Iron Warriors down, while keeping the paintjob clean and effective- although I would've liked them better on darker bases to give the models even more contrast :)

Those are beautiful Chrono but tell me, what on earth is a lascannon doing in a CC oriented squad? tongue.gif

Counter attacking if the enemy assault elements get through. :D I still want the CCW squad to do something when when the rest of the army is shooting.

Very nice mate!

 

Quick question though, where is the head from on the marine on the far right? I'm guessing the standard chaos marine sprues, but I'm pretty sure it's not on the sprues I have!!

 

Cheers.

 

It's from the Berserkers box, just with the "ears" removed. The Khorne berserker box has some great heads one you remove their bunnyears. :D

 

Cheers

Superb! These will make one mighty fine army, Perturabo will be proud! If I had to force a critique out (I'm realy forcing it)I'd say teh flesh tones don'T stand out from teh rest of teh mini. But that can also be the effect wanted ;)

Yeah, I noticed it as well, my initial idea was to just make "pale" skin, with a purplish undertone. I really like the skin, but it sinks a bit more into the marine than I meant it to. But I'm happy with the result anyway. There's a few heads on the first 2 squads I need to update, since they have completely different skin. I could try a warmer colour(use a thin wash as the last color) and see what happens. ;)

 

Cheers
