Boomstick Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Got the biggun's done for 33ss, here's my Hodgepodge Emissary, Genbu/Izamu, and Alt. Nekima. Hopefully my BF order gets here this week and I can plow through the Raspy crew as well. Any thoughts? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like your work but since you asked for thoughts: I think Genbu could use a little more color up front. Just my humble opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomstick Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 @H4ml3t thanks! I'm a big fan of your work as well! I tend to agree on more color in general. In this case there's a reason for it: My Ressers I try to do in a mostly monochrome style with a point or two of color. Genbu and other dual-faction Ressers are tricky because of this and tend to end up in an awkward middle ground in regard to color. I think I may add color to the wrap on his sword hilt in this case. Think that would help alleviate the awkward middle ground, or is there another aspect that jumps out to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your idea to put color on the sword wrap will work nicely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franchute Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 @Viruk I'm speechless how well painted they are! How did you do to get this fantastic blue grey? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viruk Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Thank you, glad you like it It's really hard to give the exact recipe as I was adjusting things on the fly. Rakarth Flesh mixed with black and blue wash was used a basecoat in a few thin layers and I kept adding palish shades for the highlights. Later I kept adding various glazes to get a deeper tone.

thatlatinspeakingguy Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 @Viruk I think I will follow your colour pattern on Bishop for my Tara crew, it's brilliant. Btw. there is something wrong with your painted model count: 4781 can't be the correct number, or you have a time vehicle stored in your garage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H4ml3t Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 I get a feeling of satisfaction when I finish painting a model and I like how it came out. Other times, I feel like I deserve a Medal just for assembling the &*!@ thing. Mysterious Emissary assembled and awaiting paint. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizuriel Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Well originally was going do the Lynch box, but painting on translucent plastic is proving to be very annoying. So for now going work on my Nephilim 11 + 2*6 + 3*4 = 35pts of models. Going try and end with a bang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viruk Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Three more minis, it's been a productive month as they bring my total to 50 soulstones (20 for two Bishops, 7 for Burt, 7 for Forgotten Marshal, 10 for Ryle , 6 for Johana). 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H4ml3t Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 I finished the Mysterious Emissary completing my initial pledge for the month and bringing me to 31ss so far. I'm traveling (with my paint and models) but don't have my light box so these pics of the Emissary will have to do. I'm going to start working on Mr. Tannen, Cherub and the Mysterious Effigy and hopefully I'll finish 2-3 by the end of the year. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the base colors down so far. Happy holidays everyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
