Hello Readers, thanks for dropping by. Something a little different, after painting two Shrine of the Aquila and lots of Relictors recently, I thought I'd address the balance of good and evil, and paint up some minions of the dark gods, okay these will be put to good use by the forces of the Emperor via Relictor Librarian summoning, but don't tell the Chaos Gods...
It was nice painting something organic and bright coloured for a change, the skin was Khorne Red and Evil Sunz Scarlet and Blazing Orange with a wash of Baal Red and blazing orange re-touched to brighten the lumps and bumps. The blades were simply Leadbelcher and Runefang Steel with a Nuln Oil wash and some Blood for the Blood Gods technical paint on most blades! Of course! The horns were basecoated Scorched Brown, then progressively toward the tip layered Graveyard Earth, Kommando Khaki and Ushabti Bone. The tongues were Hormagaunt Purple and a Leviathan Purple wash and then 'Ardcoated for a gloss finish.
The back view shows the nice bone graduated effect, and the same on the horns and crests. The bases are the same recipe I always use, Calthan Brown, drybrushed Kommando Khaki and Ushabti Bone. Just seen that I haven't added my patches of burnt grass flock... darn. Will address that shortly.
That's all folks, thanks for dropping in, hope you like what you see.
And another bit done during my 6 month mountain reducing painting challenge (6MMRPC). Cheers.
Nice work on these guys.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the organic stuff. I love my Chaos Marines but I get so tired of painting power armor. There's just a freedom with organic stuff that's lacking with things like tanks, heavily armored guys, etc.
Looking great! I'm with thor as well. Power armor is boring :).
ReplyDeleteNicely blended colours, that man.
