Your painting is awesome mate! I wish I had the skill and patience to do work even half as good as that.

[+Grimdark Prince Adam+]

Thanks mate! Really appreciate it. And you know, skill you can acquire, patience you have to have in yourself. The fun part is, the more skills you acquire (by painting) the less patience you need to have fun with it

 

And heres a link to my WIP limited wolf priest:

Fantastic work, Adam! 

How long have you been painting?  I've been doing this for 25-30 years and I can't consistently turn out results like yours.

[+Grimdark Prince Adam+]

Thanks! Well, I have been painting for about 6-7 years ending in 2003, and started again in the end of 2013, which gives around 1,5 years recently. There are 2 tricks: 1. Internet is your friend. 2. Always try to paint the next one better. And thats it (looking at the long run, of course )

Your "Grimdark Prince Adam" should really have a fur loincloth and a power sword.

Ulfgrim - totally!

So anyway, I started a new WIP thread, you can find it here:

There's a lone wolf there, painting inspired by Tommie Soule.

that armour is too good!! its not fair lol.

[+Grimdark Prince Adam+]

Thanks again! Well, I just did it as I saw on Tommie's Soule plog, all credits go to him for that. I just mimicked it. Somehow, all those tutorials on the web didn't work, and viewing his WIP pics did the job

So the new Lone wolf can be found here:

Hey Guys!

 

I haven't posted anything in a while, I didn't have much time, but slowly I am currently working on a Lone Wolf and 3 PA guys of different types with special/combi weapons. In the meantime, I aquired the FW set for terminators on an auction, and decided to use them for my future Void Claws. I thought up an idea that as they are elites even among elites, they should have a distinct armour pattern (and I will have more fun painting them ) So I decided to add some part of the armour black, and here is the idea:

What do you guys think? Any ideas for improving this paint scheme?

[Gemini]

I used a set of the old metal terminators with those really fat metal lightning claws for my Void Claws. For the shoulders all I did was paint them then hit them with a wire brush to peel all the paint back off and show clean metal. The Void is a tough place for paint... I did my Arjac with the black torso and it looks very good. Consider a very bright silver for details against the black torso, to me it looks more 'starry' than white on black.

 

Can't wait to see these guys!

[+Grimdark Prince Adam+]

Thanks for the tips! Although bright silver rather won't work for my painting style, as I prefer an overall darker tone.

[Gemini]

I could see that. Also on Arjacs torso it's just bolt heads, not full on aquillas and such too...
