Zigmunth Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Hi all! My first post here I think. I do three armies, but since you do not accept any xeno life forms over here, I need to limit myself to showing off my SM Flesh Tearers. So, this is what I have done so far. As you will gather from the pics, I work on random projects at the same time (kind of ADHD) and never get anything finished. But I do my best... I try, really Rhinos: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NXqRn1NmdeA/VIdgyLCBnVI/AAAAAAAABUM/whkt5zgiCDg/s1600/FT_DC_19.jpg Death Company: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ic2UQiy727k/VJNVXBK4PxI/AAAAAAAABU0/vxo_4wXikjk/s1600/FT_DC_01.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ajN--3JzT-o/VJNVXAsdv1I/AAAAAAAABUs/U_8D4FMlNbs/s1600/FT_DC_02.jpg Flesh Tearers Terminator (Space Hulk): http://imgur.com/la1odNv.jpg http://imgur.com/3K6p7Rf.jpg http://imgur.com/Yyidwqo.jpg https://www.youtube.com/embed/NPsuxNzjssQ Flesh Tearers Troops: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/wikear/Grot%20Orderly/FT_Tact1_12.jpg I hope the pic size is not too big for the forum rules.

Grizzly_bear Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 How you do that red, I must know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Most of these reds on the SM are done with Vallejo paints Burnt Umber to start with, then a lighter tone and Fire Red to close off. Most of them have been done with an aribrush and changing angles to simulate lighter tones on raised areas. It's a painful process but I think it pays off.  If you meant the red on the DC dude, I always put a layer of white under my red and in this case I have been using Blood Red from GW.  Wheeeen it comes to the Rhinos, it's black undercoat, thinned down Fire Red (two, three layers) and then fixing up the smootheness with an airbrush - leaves darker red in the corners ;)I hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Woah! Second Edition troops! Haven't seen them since, like, forever! Very nicely painted (see, even Flesh Tearers can stand to attention ) Love the Termie and the DC dude too. Impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flint13 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Your reds are lovely, but I'd love to know how you went about painting the black on those Death Company. Â That super dark blue/black is gorgeous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 The black on DC is just black. Unless you mean the jump pack vents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Second edition tactical squad. Man, I remember those. Maybe I have some knocking around somewhere... Â Anyway, great job so far. Keep it up. :tu: Â (PS. You might want to add writing squiggles to the purity seals on that Terminator. ;) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 The black on DC is just black. Unless you mean the jump pack vents? Haha, I figured that much. I meant the sharp little blue-ish highlights accompanying the black. Sorry I wasn't more clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urauloth Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I absolutely didn't expect a shot of 2E nostalgia when I clicked this thread. That space hulk terminator is looking great, hope to see more of those! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShVagYeR Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Awesome stuff man, just keep up the pace and don't let your xenos armies take your attention away from this. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 So I have had a busy hobby weekend (thanks to my mother-in-law for coming in and helping out with the girls) and below are the results.  First of all I have finished my February's commitment model, but since it's a xeno, you can find it here.  With my Flesh Tearers I have worked on building as much as I could and sorting out the bits needed. It looks like I'm going to need some bits, but I got anothe bitx box to sift through.  I have sanded the bases of my Death Company and added some on the dread.  http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-8nD4FyaHKYs/VOo3nh-9UMI/AAAAAAAABy8/Pgw5UVJA6ck/s1600/6.jpg  I have glued these guys to the bases.  http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-opQvHEDEcYQ/VOo3meZKxRI/AAAAAAAAByo/UiHGsMTi7jw/s1600/1.jpg  These are the oldschool hands and bolters I will be putting on them.  http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VhnZbWmHUfE/VOo3mZWMn3I/AAAAAAAAByg/rTb-nTeZ6NQ/s1600/2.jpg  These are some spare bits.  http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3lStlGvDcf0/VOo3maUlWZI/AAAAAAAAByc/C7aYrPH5beQ/s1600/3.jpg  http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7cezO9QuQ10/VOo3nOmeMYI/AAAAAAAABys/YiijJqhMrwo/s1600/4.jpg  And some other models in queue to be painted / finished off.  http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-pojAJOgLk_4/VOo3nMPGxVI/AAAAAAAABzA/xy7LGlo_hKI/s1600/5.jpg  So that's it for now. I still got couple days in February to go, so I maybe will manage to basecoat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosjetka Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Those Flesh Tearer Tacticals look great. The red didn't look too good on the Rhinos, but turned out looking good on the infantry :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zigmunth Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 Finally, after months of painting my Orks, I have managed to put my brush to do some proper Emperor's work and finished painting my Librarian Dreadnought. Here are the results. http://i.imgur.com/RKa72w5.jpg  http://i.imgur.com/vFJwPDb.png  http://i.imgur.com/9oPzbir.png  http://i.imgur.com/alrV777.jpg  C&C are welcome ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuka06 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Wow, I really like the brown armour parts. Which sounds strangely specific, but that just stood out to me. But, the model feels somehow incomplete. Mainly due to the head. I can see that it's painted, but... I dunno. Maybe paint the tear? And some scribbling on the scrolls?

Zigmunth Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 They are dark red ;) Regarding the face, yes, I missed the drop. And there is a blue tint to it, lost in phone camera. Scrolls... yes! :D Another thing missed. I finished him at 3:00am.... well... "finished" :) Â Thanks for your feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 Something I have been working on in the last few days in short breaks between recording gaming mat reviews...  http://i.imgur.com/3mAagtt.jpg  The above is an example of crude masking techniques :) well it worked. One mask for both Rhinos.  http://i.imgur.com/64RncJQ.jpg  And this one is both Rhinos that I have been working on, finishing the detail work and now working on battle damage. There's also a Librarian that I need to finish before next game.  Aaaand a piece of scenery as well - a long fence piece. I got few shorter ones and these are a test for my gaming table scenery I am working on (do we have a section for that around here?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Liking the models only just found the thread. Â Regarding scenery there's a few blogs knocking around but no dedicated space for it on the forum. When I'm on my laptop I'll link in a few if you want.
