At least I can add a year now. Both have gathered a fair share of dust. Maybe I should convert my drop pod into something useful like a savings box.

Interrogator Stobz Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Paint 'em up for the ETL, it's the only right thing to do.... No pressure :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostrael Posted June 4, 2019 Author Share Posted June 4, 2019 Unfortunately they are already half painted. Maybe we can have a Paint-Your-Half-Painted-Miniatures event after ETL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 I wish, they are great. Maybe we can put pressure on The Shadow Guard to respawn his event... Lostrael 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Belial Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I wish, they are great. Maybe we can put pressure on The Shadow Guard to respawn his event... This torch has been passed on to another and I do believe there are plans in the works. Interrogator Stobz and Lostrael 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostrael Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 So I made a bit progress. Just a few more details to go. Any good idea what to put on the knee pad? The cloak is a bit stiff. but at least it was easy to paint. Did this captain from the Dark Millennium box have a name?

Darnok Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Excellent painting! That model has stood the test of time, a true classic. Lostrael 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlamingDeth Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I'd go with a company designation on the kneepad. Barring that, a campaign badge of some variety. Lostrael 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Blaire Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Wow, Lostrael. Just wow! You did an amazing job with that figure! It is definitely classic and you did it no wrong, that's for sure. I would echo the above in saying go with the company designator on the open knee pad. Lostrael 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Captain Arkley Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I don't think he had a name Lost. Might be a old Belial as its 3rd company? Lostrael 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lostrael Posted June 12, 2019 Author Share Posted June 12, 2019 Thanks all. I'd go with a company designation on the kneepad. Barring that, a campaign badge of some variety. I'll do my best. Just started to assemble the Hellblaster squad. The Master is looking so small next to them. Even the base is higher. I plan to try the new contrast paints on them. If I can get some. The ones I need are out of stock online, so I have to do a little round trip to the GW store on the weekend. Fingers crossed that they have still some.

Lostrael Posted June 15, 2019 Author Share Posted June 15, 2019 (edited) I dried out some of the contrast paints. I'm quite happy. They dry smoother than the inks I used so far. for those who are interested... in more details: I had primed with corax white then used vallejo Glacier Blue as base coat I mixed 1 drop Talassar Blue 2 drops Medium and 2 drops apothecary whiteafter dryingthan I dry brushed it a bit with Glacier Blue I think the Hellblaster squad will act as guinea pig, but I guess they are used to it.

TheForgottenAngel Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Wow these are great! Really liking the contrast paint KS when applied carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Captain Arkley Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Thats a great test.... Whats your overall opinion on them Lost? A good tool to add to the hobby box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Okay Lost, that result is amazing, stealing that for my Ravenwing, as well as the three Apothecaries I'm painting right now :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostrael Posted June 15, 2019 Author Share Posted June 15, 2019 Thats a great test.... Whats your overall opinion on them Lost? A good tool to add to the hobby box? So far, yes. But I just tried apothecary white and a bit Talassar Blue. The guy at the GW shop told me to ignore this "one think coat" thing, just paint as normal and shake the apothecary white well. The smooth drying effect is nice and saves allot of work. They are a bit expensive.. but I bought so many colors that just gather dust... it hardly matters. And actually the price saved me from buying more than I need. I have some Dark Angel green, red and black to experiment on the Hellblaster. Lets see if this a good way for me or if I have to go with my usual painstaking method. Brother Captain Arkley 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaneos Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I had hoped to make some work in progress photos but I was somewhat in a hurry. So it's just the finished squad. Wow stunning paint job! This colour scheme is beautiful. Are those bare heads from Shapeways? I think I got some from there they look similar unpainted (the material). Man that green is so vibrant, and the basing is spectacular! I would never have thought to use red hue for rocks. Ties in with the red accents on the model so nicely!

Lostrael Posted June 16, 2019 Author Share Posted June 16, 2019 Thanks. Yes the heads with the fluffy beards are from shapeways. For the rocks I needed something to contrast with black. I was thinking of a floor plastered in red stones on a old castle on Caliban, that was then overgrown by some moss and weeds. Somewhat like my driveway.
