PeteySödes Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Love it! Beautiful work on the flames, those modeled effects like that are always hard to pull of but you nailed it (as always). Who's next? Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dam13n Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Looking good as always. The restricted mainly warm palette offset by the green spot colour works really well. Great job on the flames also. Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrotherEndcat Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I can't remember if I commented on your WIP thread but oh well...great job man looks fantastic. What colour is your final highlight on the armour? Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 I have had this model built and undercoated ready to be painted since he came out. And I have finally got round to popping a quick lick of paint on him! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/csor1.jpg I love the model, but I am not sure he has a place in my 9th edition Word Bearers army, so I haven't spent too much time on him. strongbow, Scribe, Dhar'Neth and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scribe Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 You've been an inspiration, for what feels like over a decade. At least as far back as Warseer at its peak. Amazing as usual. Bat33.1 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 I am finally getting round to painting up a new Word Bearers army. Unlike my previous army, I really wanted to strike a more sinister, darker tone for the army. This is the first of many models! http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/wbcsm.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/wbcsm2.jpg http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/wbcsm3.jpg Recently, any Word Bearers I have painted have been characters, and I have blended the dark red and black together. This is fine for characters, however for rank and file troops it is time consuming. And for the entire army it meant there would be inconsistent shades of red across different units. To get around this I have mixed together my own dark red for the base colour. http://www.golden-throne.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/wbpaint.jpg This is a mix of Abaddon Black and Mephiston red. Knowing I would need a lot of it, I mix them together into one pot. So any unit I paint now will be the exact same colour as the next. I am hoping to get the whole army done by next summer. So I foresee a lot a Word Bearers in my future! strongbow, Valkia the Bloody, MithrilForge and 7 others 10 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaliGn Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 These are going to look so sinister and creepy, will there be a WIP thread? Will there be the typically Tzen conversions creeping in or will they be stock? Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithrilForge Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Very nice, handy that you pre mixed a pot don't forget to drop a stainless ball bearing into the pot , we want that mix to be exactly the same every time Cheers, Mithril Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) Thanks peeps! Glad you like so far These are going to look so sinister and creepy, will there be a WIP thread? Will there be the typically Tzen conversions creeping in or will they be stock? I stopped doing a WIP thread, I just felt like I was double posting and I don't think anyone really wanted essentially the same posts twice There will be some conversions, but until Dark Angels get a new veterans kit (with swanky robes), there wont be any robed troops. The scale on the new CSM kit is much bigger than the old DA veterans. :( Edited August 7, 2020 by Tzen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verux Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Your red mix is great and everything is so clean yet chaotic. Tzen 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted August 8, 2020 Author Share Posted August 8, 2020 (edited) Thanks man! :D So, this is the first squad of my new Word Bearers force. Looking forward to spending a bit more time with this paint scheme on a character soon (maybe when it isn't so damn warm!)
