WOW! These look fantastic! Incredible job, and I love the color choices for this army. They look intimidating and battle hardened. Proper Grim-Dark.

 

I especially like the extra long Purity Seals.

I ran out of likes but, damn! These look SUPERB! 

 

If you could give a breakdown on how you achieved the Color Scheme I'd be immensely grateful since my own small force of GK have yet to get paint on em.

Very well done. Unique, but still in line with the chapter look. ;)

 

I have never been a huge fan of the helmetless heads in the Grey Knight army, but I think you did a really good job with the head on your Draigo model. Very nice work!

Very nice - I appreciate introducing the varied, piecemeal equipment look to the Grey Knights, seeing as they often lack that bit of 40kflavour. Your grimy, red highlights paintjob reminds me of the John Blanche Space Marine conversions presented in White Dwarf yonks back.

 

Further props for Dreadnoughtknights, the original design never felt like a good fit for 40k, in my opinion. Cool idea to only use the arm-pistons on ranged weapon arms - gives the impression it has slow, stabilized movement while the melee arm focuses on a quick swing.

The Dreadnought/Dreadknight hybrid looks soooo much better than the vanilla Dreadknight. Good job.

 

The Land Raider confused me, however. Each barrel of the twin-linked lascannon is set at a different angle. Considering you did this to both lascannons, does this mean each barrel of a twin-linked lascannon can be fired from a different angle? Why would you do that?

I was going to link directly to the chorus of Joe Esposito singing You're the Best Around, but youtube is being weird. Have to settle for just leaving a comment and liking your army. Point is, it's pretty friggin sweet.

Absolutely amazing work! The pictures are a bit too small to really appreciate all the details (or maybe I just didn't figure out how to make them larger) but the metal you're painting is fantastic, can't see if it's the metal itself or weathering that makes it look like it does but it's awesome!

 

Even though it's only in the background I really liked what you've done with the manufactorum as well, some of the beast weathering I've seen on a building. Care to give some more details on that? :)

Hey thank you guys for the coments and im so happy other people have been able to enjoy these!

 

Appologize for taking a while to get back Ive been working on this:

 

wolf And words Ip 7 Sep Sm

 
 
Ill try to answer questions.
 
Slipstreams I did an under coat of tin bitz or now the new equivalent which actually didn't work as well but meh...

Then i gave em a wash of warploc bronze for some color, obvously that has to be super watered down but unfortunately it gets in some non metallic spots. I followed that with a brown wash, the burnt umber one, you know it I forget the name... this was applied liberally and i tried to get that in the recesses.

I think I followed that with a substantial dry brush of bolt gun metal.

after that to grunge the armor back up they got a black wash, witch was repeated in the receded areas of the model after the first coat was dry.

 

and then i went back with a super tight and controlled dry brush of silver i think the necron compound.

 

the second to last step was dipping sparse amounts of purple wash into any  area where shadows would fall or where eternal components like bolts sit...

 

last i picked out detail with silvery silver.

 

thats the armor, tubes and other details like that were hit with flat black , i think i left them like that.

 

the white portions were painted bone then washed with the brown and yellow brown washes and then worked back to the origonal bone color... hope that helps...
