Calyptra Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 My Cronos so far: Action shot! I wrote a thing in my project log, so if you're interested in reading about my deep and personal struggle with painting a Cronos (spoiler: there's too much purple in the flesh tones), you can read about it there.

fisheyedbunny Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) So I have finally settled (I think) on a camo scheme for the Tau forces I will be doing. Done the test scheme on the Riptide and I felt it was far to bright. I was going for a night/urban theme. I decided to flip the colours and end with the darkest colour this time. The two Ghostkeel plates you can see were done this way however the pictures show them just airbrushed. Still to be drybrushed/washed etc. I think the darker grey in the new camo scheme is just a shade to dark however I will address this with some of the drybrushing to bring the black more in line...in theory Loving the work so far loads of cracking pictures and great work, need to get my finger out of my backside EDIT - Also changed from Digital to Hex camo, felt it was more Tau somehow, don't ask me why tho, my mind works in the strangest of ways Edited October 10, 2017 by fisheyedbunny robofish7591, elmo, Calyptra and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fisheyedbunny Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Some more WIP, Ghostkeel has been my main area of focus but I have also completed most of the work on the Fire Warriors. I think/hope the minimal detailing and the darker colours suit the overall theme of the Urban/Night style. There is still some odds and sods to be done as well as the basing on it. The helmet is no where near as white in real life, will need to get my lightbox set up again. elmo, Trokair, WarriorFish and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E_50_Panzer Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) Alrighty, I had a few free hours t'day, so I got to work on the wyches. Stripped, based, primed, and a few with the first layers of basecoats started - really messy if I do say so myself.

Trokair Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Calyptra, that Cronos looks good so far. There are quite a few Dark Eldar models I always liked the look of but that is an army I am yet to collect any off. Looking forward to seeing it finished. Fisheyedbunny, Nice work on the Ghostkeel WarriorFish, that Slyth is gorgeous. Elmo, what green is that?

Marshal Wolfhart Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Finally got around to getting a wip pic. As stated above (pg2) my guardians were too far along, as I got impatient and painted them before taking wip pics So here goes: 2 Warlocks, 5 Dark Reapers: Trokair, WarriorFish and Triszin 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabadin Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Finally got my pics so i can get started. Ignore the current paint on the broodlord, was painting him as Spawn of Cryptus, since that's not a thing now he's getting the retro scheme.

Studio Silvernale Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Wyche squad done. These were Raging Heroes' pre-TGG2 kickstarter and their quality wasn't as good as the newer stuff. WarriorFish 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uprising Posted October 22, 2017 Author Share Posted October 22, 2017 Does Epic count? I am going to say why not. The more painted miniatures the better. Go for it. Sviar 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sviar Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Thanks Uprising. I Sviar, one of the slowest painter on the B&C vow to paint: 10 Orks with sluggas and Dakkas 1 Ork Painboy 1 Ork Stompa- Epic Starting pictures coming soon.

Sabadin Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 And then some paint happened, forgot how much longer edge highlighting takes instead of the drybrushing approach on my regular nids. These guys are just going to be basic tabletop standard, will be aiming to take the broodlord to a much higher level though.
