Kaled Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Thanks Do you mind sharing recipes for your skin/fur and wing membrane? Also the rocks.Sure. I used GW paints - the old range, haven't yet got any of the new ones yet. The wings were Chaos Black, highlighted by adding Codex Grey and with a wash of Devlan Mud. The flesh was a mix of Khemri Brown and black, washed with Devlan Mud, then highlighted up to Khemri Brown, with a little Dheneb Stone for the top highlights. Fur was Scorced Brown with a Devlan Mud wash and Bestial Brown highlights. The stone was painted Codex Grey, with a wash of (you guessed it) Devlan Mud, and then highlighted with Fortress Grey and a few highlights with Skull White on the very highest points.

Tiny Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Thanks heaps for the recipes i think my night terrors just got bumped to the top of the list! Could i also bother you for your recipe for white? Your molly looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaled Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 White is tricky - in my opinion it's perhaps the most difficult colour to paint. I usually start with a very light grey (if I want a cold white) or a very light brown (such as stone or bone) for a warm white. I find that a watered down wash of black or brown is often useful to define the areas of shadow that I can then shade with successively darker shades of my base colour. Then I highlight up to pure white for the highest areas. Hope that helps. I look forwards to seeing how your models turn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Yeh definitely agree that white is the hardest. I usually build up from deneb stone, space wolves grey or shadow grey. Prefer stone for the warmer white. Thanks again for the recipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 I have always had trouble with Cold Whites as opposed to Warm Whites and of course black in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaled Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Evening all, Just got a few minutes to share a couple of pictures of models I've finished over the last week or so. First up, a trio of Necropunks; And second, the Dead Rider; - Back - (Blue horse inspired by this one by poweranimal84 ) I'm supposed to be playing tomorrow - might have to see if I can fit these guys into a Seamus crew... Next on my painting table - a couple more Canine Remains and some Crooked Men. - Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiny Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 You've hit it out of the park again. Love your skin tones on the necro punks. Basing on dead rider is above and beyond as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rameses Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Those Necropunks are out of this world! I love love love the eyes... sinister! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Fantastic paintjob on those and some great looking bases too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaled Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Evening all, I haven't updated this for a couple of weeks, but I've been busy painting and have finished just about everything for my Seamus crew... First up, a couple more Canine Remains - I hadn't really wanted any at first but have really enjoyed painting both sets. The I painted a set of Crooked Men - I should probably have taken another picture of these so you could see the sign behind the one on the right. I then painted a trio of Drowned. These were also my first experience of modelling a water effect on their bases - it turned out pretty well and I think it really fits well with the models. And finally for today, a group of Punk Zombies... The only model I have left is Avatar Seamus, who I started the other evening. After that I plan to start a Rasputina crew so I can have a break from painting dead flesh and can do some nice wintery bases. As always comments and suggestions for improvements are welcome. - Dave 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omenbringer Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Another great batch of minis Kaled. I am pretty sure I have said it previously but your undead skin tones are awesome (the female drowned especially). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaled Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Afternoon all, Update time. First off, I finished my Seamus crew by painting his avatar; Click for a pic of Seamus, his avatar & totem I was about to start on Rasputina and crew, but instead decided to quickly paint up (alternate) Nicodem and Mortimer At some point I should paint up some a Vulture and some Mindless Zombies (and maybe some of the Heresy ones - either these or these) to round out the crew... - Dave 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wings Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 The Seamus Avatar looks fantastic pale, and the accents of colour work really well in bringing him to life. Also your black is superb. Nicodem looks oh so cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaled Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Thanks! Black is one of those colours that's surprisingly hard to get right - it's easy to over-highlight it and end up with grey instead. Nicodem's coat was highlighted with grey, but for his hat I used blue for the highlights with just a touch of grey in the top highlights which tends to look blacker than highlighting with grey. I really love the alternate Nicodem model but since we already have a Nicodem player at the club I can't I imagine me using him too often - I'd prefer to stick to masters that aren't already in use - and I decided to grab Mortimer while he's still available separately.

dgraz Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Couldn't agree more on black being hard to get right. You nailed it though. Really nice work all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stochastic Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I am stunned, love those highlights and shadows. Gotta give exstra credits to Teddy's teeths and heart, including the doves. I personally love that you have used clear colors, and those shades and fadings, damn... Love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 And you continue to impress. Hard to pick a favorite but the Seamus trio is nearer my heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
