Sandalphon Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 mmmmm bone-crunching goodness!! grats on the tourney ranking :P was there a best painted/themed army prize? surely you would have been up there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillyfish Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Cool - very nice dreadnought, I must say. Congratulations on the tournament ranking as well. How did the scoring break down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanSan Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 there was a best painted price which got a death guard army. I dìdn`t understand why this army won, maybe because it was the only one with an army display. But there were several better painted ones ; for example mine, :) . When i get pictures i can show them to you. The scoring was: Mission 1 (4 objective markers): normal victory points + 10 points if you had more objectives / 5 if both players had 2 Mission 2 (the "conquer and hold mission" ;don`t know the exact english name) normal victory points + 10 points if you had more objectives / 5 if both players had 1 Mission 3 (Killpoints) normal Victory points + Killpoints my scoring was: Deathwing/Black Templars: 8/22 Deathwing/Eldar 24/6 Deathwing/Deathguard 26/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor's Instrument Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Beautiful. If these type of feedback comments had been given to me my head wouldn't fit through a door haha When I finish my BA, hopefully in the next month, I was toying with the idea of a small Deathwing army but I feel that I wouldn't be able to do them justice now. A step by step tutorial with stage pictures of how you achieve that bone finish would be a great help though. Again though, brilliant work.

Grand Master Belial Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Good idea, we can immortalize them in the Librarium. This is able to be an =][= Army of Legend =][=. I think this is the one that will take a bit to check and the fact that this is still a Army in Progress. The next guideline is that the painter and modeler has put down notes on their conversions and models, to explain what they tried to achieve with the particular unit and how they went about it. After all, this program is not just about getting pretty pictures into the Librarium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanSan Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 @ Grand Master Belial Thanks to the suggestion to an Army of legend! I will try to focus out on the last point in my next posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fussellg Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 first I would like to say that your deathwing look beautiful. second, (sorry if this has allready been asked) did you make your bases or did you buy them from an online company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanSan Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 ok here is the primed dread. My intention on the base was that he just smashed through a door.

Gurni Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 outstanding work. as for space hulk it is probably in the works since GW has decided to start re-releasing its old games. Talisman is out and Blood Bowl has a better GW mini site as well as a computer game in the works. Besides, think how many of us would buy space hulk just for the terminators if they made them really well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLUGitIN Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 hey, that's essentially how i paint my own deathwing :lol: except with lots more paint layers and skill :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowie165 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 VanSan, I really love your work, but I don't quite understand your layering. I have a scale modelling background, so I can airbrush any picture you like, but I'm not sure how to attempt the layering. Would you be able to explain it a little more please? Are your layers more like washes, rather than full coats of paint? I apologise if this is a newbie question. I simply love your Deathwing paintwork and would really like to try it myself.

VanSan Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share Posted March 9, 2009 if nothing special is written my normal layers are just normal coats of paint. The only exception on the model so far is the white colour which i mixed with lot of water, about 50:50. When i need inks, i use them pure or mixed with water, this depends if its the last layer on the model or not. For example the Flesh Wash in step 2 is pure, in comparison the Gryphone Sepia in step 6 is mixed with water in a proportion of about 30:70 (ink:water). Hope i could help a bit.
