Malebolgia Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Hey guys, Last Thursday I was giving a demo in my games store and I wanted to use a Protectorate and Cygnar set. Unfortunately my Cygnar set wasn't painted at all and bare metal was not an option for a demo. Time for a speedpaint session! Two middays/8 hours later 4 miniatures were finished. That was VERY fast for me. I used simple techniques for most of the parts that could be applied relatively fast. The dark blue was done by drybrushing, glazing, washing and a very thin layer...done in various ways. The result is a bit grainy/sloppy but good enough for demoes. The light blue was done with blends and therefore look better. The metallics were first drybrushed with 2 colors and then Smoked and inked. After this I painted all golden parts. Here are the pictures: Coleman Stryker (jup, I spotted the blue spot on the gun ). I reversed the blade as this looks MUCH cooler IMO and can easily be done as you cannot spot his thumbs. Now you can also see his face. I also glued him to a piece of bark. Charger (small headswap here with the Lancer) Lancer Ironclad And the whole bunch together All in all I am quite happy with them and they are excellent for demoes. I will also continue painting this way for the rest of the Cygnar army. They are my 4th WARMACHINE army after all . Now these are finished I have some time to get back to painting for Andy of Heresy Miniatures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant_Crunch Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Very nice speedpaints. Not a fan of the Warmachine stuff but I find myself wondering how they would look with a metallic blue paintjob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricJ Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 nice work for a quick job, and probably about the level of quality you'll want for demos as well! Don't want any person off the street messing with the top paint jobs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeadAsbestos Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Nicely done. Pop a few sweet details on some basic hard work, and you have a force ready to go, nicer than most I see on tabletops around here. My tabletop, for example!
