Ahhhh.... i see it. Damn close up photos, bringing out all the imperfections!

 

[whittsy]

Here's the DV chosen with their Lord Eliphas. Many kills have these men been involved in.... mostly Dark Angels deathwing bikers. Muhahahaha

 

[whittsy]

this is my forgeworld sorcerer. He is unnamed as yet. I'm more than happy to take suggestions for names though. Something that fits his model. Thanks guys.

 

[Tawa]

Nice work all round there :so_happy:

I found the cultists to be incredible! What colours did you use for them?

Both are painted very simply.
Tybore's Thorn (Tybore is the cultist with the axe and claw and his retinue) is painted in Ogryn Camo then washed with Anthonian Camoshade with Nurgling Green highlights. The "rust" on the bronze was done with Stegadon Scale Green, then Sotek Green and finally Temple Guard Blue.

Duke's Raiders (Duke the one with the shotgun) Is also very simple.
Castellan Green with the Anthonian Camoshade and then highlighted with Elysian Green. Rust on these guys is done with Rhinox Hide, then Skrag Brown then Troll Slayer Orange.

This is the near completion rate of my sorcerer. He's just got a few touch ups to do on the spears shaft and the banners pole plus the base needs some sprucing up.

Why thank you very much!

As you will come to see from me is I usually start painting something, then change to another project. Its a flaw I have but I get these ideas and need to put them to use! I have half painted up some termis and my predator tank, then i change to my raptors, then my sorcerer (the one I have posted up here but still have not finished! UGH) Anyway, I punched out my raptors with the help of the new effect paints, hope you guys like them! (I had to reformat my hard drive so I lost all my pictures on my computer, I'm downloading Dropbox again so I'll post up some WIP pictures of them I have any.....)

I DID! YES!









SO basically its the usual Death World Forest base coat and Iron Breaker for the metals (I will be phasing out Iron Breaker and using Lead Belcher because A) Its better quality and B) It's better god damn quality!)



As we see here, Lead Belcher dry brush on the guns and chain swords. (much better quality!) Forgive the only 1 photo, they all look the same really and don't want to overload this post.





Here I've put the line of Elysian Green on the edge of the armour plates after a drenching of Agrax Earthshade (about 2 - 3 coats of it each model) Some of it looks a bit dodgey (thicker lines than other parts etc)because my very fine detail brush was up the shitter and my detail brush wasn't looking much better....





And then Temple Guard Blue on the vents and plasma just to break up the green, was an experiment, its a bit iffy in some parts but from regular "playing the game distance from the eye" they don't look bad at all. More photos of these guys to come in a post soon to come.

 

[whittsy]

And here they are competed (bar the drybrush on base and the vanilla helmet on the champions base.)



Here is some of the work I've done with Typhus Corrosion and the Rust paint, quite good effects.







And some closer looks at the blue vents/plasma.







The champion of the squad, probably going to name him Rocky, with his power fist and plasma pistol. He likes it in close, he's in the arse kicking business, and business is goooooood.

Looking good, the blue provides a nice contrast color for them and the rust has come out very well. Nice work. What's next?

I dunno. I can't really paint any of my big stuff atm because my spray gun is up the shitter . Started some work on my custom Lord with magnetised arms (only because I'm using him this saturday), but I'm keen to paint my termi lord (also with magnetised weapons) and my termi squad. I just don't know!

 

[Jacobite]

Spray gun? Invest in an airbrush my friend, it's worth it trust me, even if only for the reliability!

When in doubt flip a coin I say!

Yes, airbrush was what I meant to say. My old man buggered it somehow (temporarily living in with my parents while I claw my way back into full time work!). It works for about the first minute, then after that it clogs and doesn't spray. It's really doing my head in!

 

[whittsy]

For those of you who are interested in my work, I'm currently working on some obliterators (Mutilator models). My green stuff work is puss to say the least, but thankfully my brother has helped me out in lending me his bitz box (full of loyalist heavy weapons he hasn't used) so now instead of green stuffing dodgey looking cannons on, I can now green stuff BIG GUNZ onto them making them look like the stupidly over gunned monstrosities that they are! Pictures to come in the week. In the mean time, I've built up my 2nd plague marine squad and 3 bikers i got for christmas!








Bringers of Decay - biker squad



soon to be obliterators

and my sorcerer whos spear tip snapped off so i've glued a chaos knights halberd on

 

[whittsy]

My Autocannon Havoc squad WIP.









The last is obviously an autocannon, the 2 guys without guns will hold one of these badboys each.

 

[whittsy]

As in usual whittsy fashion, I've delayed painting to do more modelling....

As promised earlier in the thread I've modeled 3/4 of my Obliterators. Critisism is welcome but dont be too over critical of my greenstuff work, I know it sucks, but I just cant figure out how to make it look.... nurgley.. like so many other people >_<! Ah well, here they are.

















All, well most of the parts have come from my brothers SM bitz box, some are from my Havoc conversion stuff (so from IG heavy weapons teams) and sponson Heavy Bolters n what not. Hope the heretics approve of these abominations of life and see past my shitty GS work and see the trueness of them.... their ability to ... ahh... obliterate

 

[SwedeMarine]

Dont sell yourself short whittsy. I think the GS work you have done with these guys is awesome. It looks properly Nurgle as its pockmarked and lumpy. Exactly what i would have expected from a disciple of the lord of rot.

 

[cole.mvb]

Looks awesome the only thing I would say is the edges of the greenstuff where it meets the plastic look a little too ''smooth''. Maybe add another thin strip of greenstuff in those areas and, poke/drag & pull the greenstuff outward to kinda bring it together. The thinner the better though, it'll look like slime and torn/rotten flesh. I actually have a nurgle army back in Texas. Always nice to see other nurgle armies.

I did as you suggested and put a thin layer of GS on the edges and sread it out. Great tip. Cheers!

And he's the same tip put into place on my bikers
