Kizzdougs Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 I just finished working on a Bloodletter test mini. I wanted to give him more of a horror feel than the regular red scheme, which I find a bit cartoony. I also wanted a colour that would contrast really nicely with the blood, so this is what I ended up with. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â I like the idea that daemons corrupt the physical world as they move through it, so I added some blood and skulls beneath the Bloodletter's feet to represent them pushing up through the earth at the daemon's touch. Â Â Â Â Â Â Lhorke looks amazing! Thanks a lot bro! Â Lhorke indeed looks incredible. And for Dorn you painted individual teeth. I mean, individual teeth. Hahaha, the teeth are sculpted onto the mini, so it's definitely not as impressive as just free handing them. Â Beautiful, love that imperial fist! Thanks so much! Glad you like him. Â Â Â Â Thanks for looking ;) Grotsmasha, Ramell, Dantay VI and 20 others 22 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToyShip Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Any chance of a tutorial on that skintone?! That bloodletter is fantastic...I need to paint my demons for Reign in Hell that way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Yay from me for the apprentice bloodletter as well - he still needs to spill more blood to get an even red coat(ing) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majkhel Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Wow, that is indeed something differently done on the Bloodletter, and definitely a lot more creepier! That's actually the first time I noticed how unnervingly long their fingers are... Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Sigismund looks amazing.Pallid is definitely the way to go to make things creepy. The purple tint lends a sense of the unnatural or damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted June 18, 2021 Author Share Posted June 18, 2021 I've just finished painting this Emperor's Child. He was made using a combination of plastic MkIV bits and some bits form Tortuga Bay.            And a size comparison with a regular MkIV marine.    Cool stuff! Love the skin of the bloodletter and the base! Thanks a lot! I was really happy with how the Bloodletter turned out.  Nice job, you obviously did something right to feature on WHTV! Don't mind me stealing this recipe at some point... Much appreciated bro!  Really cool! Love the concept and execution of that bloodletter Thanks bro, much appreciated!  Excellent work on the Bloodletter. Thanks! Glad you like it.  Any chance of a tutorial on that skintone?! That bloodletter is fantastic...I need to paint my demons for Reign in Hell that way! It was pretty freestyle, I changed it as I went because it was a test model. It was Deck Tan highlighted with Flat White, both from Tamiya, shaded with Druchii Violet, I added some blue in the deepest shadows, and finished it off with some white highlights by hand.  Yay from me for the apprentice bloodletter as well - he still needs to spill more blood to get an even red coat(ing) Hahaha, too good! Glad you like him. It's his first day on the job.  Wow, that is indeed something differently done on the Bloodletter, and definitely a lot more creepier! That's actually the first time I noticed how unnervingly long their fingers are... Well done! Thanks a lot! Glad you like the alternative scheme. I was pretty happy with it.  Sigismund looks amazing.Pallid is definitely the way to go to make things creepy. The purple tint lends a sense of the unnatural or damaged. Thanks! I'm glad you like how Sigismund and the alternate Bloodletter turned out.    Thanks for looking ;) Xin Ceithan, Sagentus, Stofficus and 26 others 28 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranulf Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Lovely work on your latest EC marine.  How did you find the bits from Tortuga Bay in terms of quality?  It’ll be interesting to see how they match up with the Mk VI in the next box set.  -Ran Kizzdougs 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzdougs Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 I've finished another Tortuga Bay EC marine. I hope you like him :)              The Emperor's Children models are beautifully painted, Kizzdougs. Much appreciated, bro!  That's really nice, I really like the metallic purple. Thanks, bro! Glad you like the purple.  Lovely work on your latest EC marine.How did you find the bits from Tortuga Bay in terms of quality?It’ll be interesting to see how they match up with the Mk VI in the next box set.-Ran The quality was good. I recon the new plastic kits will be the same size as the new CSM kits, so smaller than the Tortuga marines.   Nice job, you obviously did something right to feature on WHTV! Don't mind me stealing this recipe at some point... What did I miss?! Nothing. WHTV shared one of my minis on their hobby round up.    Thanks for looking ;) LameBeard, Majkhel, CaptainFrederickson and 9 others 12 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 You've made them look very regal which really works well for the EC. Kizzdougs 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus b'Raass Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Man that is god work. I am SO chuffed by the stuff Tortuga Bay is bringing out lately - I've been ordering two sets of both standing and running bodies of every mark up till now. I have no idea when I will ever finish painting 80 marines next to the 4 new CSM sprues (with 10 marines each), but I don't care: I have them now and I love them.Can you show us WIP pics of the Tortuga sculpts - I assume you're blinging them up with Oyumari/GreenStuff details? Kizzdougs 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Kizz has some of that on his insta if you’re itching for it!   But the tortuga stuff is amazing. I’m just worried they’re gonna catch a C&D. I already know people who are bitching and moaning about it. Kizzdougs 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizzdougs Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 I've just finished an Iron Hands Breacher marine. I went for the classic FW oil slick scheme and I wanted it to be pretty subtle, but unfortunately once I added the highlights, oils, and weathering, it was pretty difficult to see the different colours in the metallic black. You can see it in some of the pics. The shadows are purple and the highlights are green.             And a size comparison with a regular MkIII marine.    You've made them look very regal which really works well for the EC. Much appreciated, bro! Glad you like them :tu:  Man that is god work.
