So do I, this is a mk 4 venerable, I hope I do him justice, I'll magnatize him but for the entry he will have multi melta and c.c.w with flamer, next month may well be a plastic iron clad gathering dust or termies.I love dreadnoughts. This is gonna be good.
That particular shade is Army Painter Alien Purple, darkened with their purple wash, I have become a fan of their stuff.Loving the purple. What a great colour!
Cheers mate! I'd love to take credit but it was a quick google search helped me with that result, and it is pure simples, blue wash, purple wash, brown wash, slightly overlapping them.Very impressed with the scorched metal effect on the multimelta. Looks great.
I used 4ply medical gauze, You can get it in any pharmacy, a little goes a long way, I have also seen a guy cameoflauge a Tau using small squares of kitchen roll dipped in thinned paint and then layered onto the model.I quite like those camo cloaks! What did you use for the material?
Yeah the poses are all squatting for a poo to be fair. I had very few marines, the only other guy I knew who was into warhammer was a few years older than me, and moved onto other hobbies of the xx chromosome type, the loser! The banner my friend is actually a cut out from White Dwarf. I never had Rogue Trader and unbelievably binned all my original warhammer fantasy battle books years ago, no one in my area that I knew had the faintest interest in it or at least never admitted it to it, I was a solo nerd. Only got back into the hobby when I went to Iraq and found White Dwarf on sale in the Naafi, a sure sign from the gods to ammend my wayward waysI had a box of those guys, and my copy of Rogue Trader is in the attic in a ziplock bag. I must admit I was never a fan of them. I always thought the proportions were a bit off and the poses awkward. Nice work on the banner though.
Its gauze used for wound dressing, cut into strips tacked onto the mini, then watered down paint on the gauze, which also helps stick it to the miniI am really impressed with the work on the scouts. Would love to hear how you created the camo netting. I am always drawn to scouts that are not in full colors of their regiment or chapter. They would stand out in that cover!
I think I will, I wanted a utilitarian real world look with the furniture on the weapons green and metal parts black, but as you can see in the pic it very dark. The boltguns are not glued in as I was toying with the idea of either converting bolters or buying umbra pattern onesThe purple and white really is striking. Looks great. Are the bolters going to get some Bolt gun metal?
