MithrilForge Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 Ermm... brilliant? How did you achieve this deep blue? Thanks Cap, its a spray base of leadbelcher from the can then Kantor Blue basecoat with an Agrax wash followed by Caledor sky ...so far i hope to finish off the blue with a 50/50 mix of caledor sky/lothern blue.

MithrilForge Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) Looks fantastic. Just thought I'd mention that WIP threads for multiple people are a no-go so please make one thread per person. Done... so it's all in the one spot... My Base idea's (trying for a WWII instrument panel look) And my other finished Dakka jet -(Bad Moons clan) More soon hopefully...

Burni Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) Just perfect. I’m doing all mine as Bad Moons, so will be Iain this as reference! What have you used for the cockpit glass? Is the metal - leadbelcher with nuln or agrax? Or both? In fact I demand a full recipe and paint list (please!)

MithrilForge Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 cockpit glass is a secret... well between you and me ok " its simply Aethermatic Blue over leadbelcher" Cheers Mithril Burni 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 No problem at all, I’ll do a full recipe for you later after I’ve checked all the paints I used ok ;-) Cheers Mithril Burni 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Those are super bright and awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaky Brigade Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Nice work! I do like your base. The green radar look is pretty cool but it's what a lot of people seem to be doing. The black is nicely reminiscent of the original game :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 Todays WiP - RED!! Cheers, Mithril Exilyth, Urauloth, Firedrake Cordova and 3 others 6 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Ah, this is where they are! Excellent work. I like the mix of clans here, are you planning a blood axe as well? MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yak Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 3 little stunners there! Really like your base too. MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burni Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Any chance of some underside shots Mithril? Which yellow did you use for the Bad Moons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted September 14, 2019 Author Share Posted September 14, 2019 @Burni- I based the planes in leadbelcher spray, yellow is as follows : averland yellow base 2x thin coats, a complete coverage of Casandora yellow(wick away the excess so it doesn’t pool/stain) then an Agrax wash in recesses followed by a tidy up coat of 50/50 Averland/ Yriel yellow. Metals were just leadbelcher washed randomly with Nuln oil then Agrax. The checkers were based with ulthuan grey then I did fine lines with abaddon black and filled them in when I thought it looked right !..! Hope that helps?, I’ll add some undercarriage pics later if you want :-) Cheers, Mithril Burni 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burni Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Brilliant, that helps as it was similar to what I had in my head (the main difference being that I’ve already primed with the last a bit of Averland spray I had but I did consider doing it in leadbelcher, so something for next time). But I know I’m on the right track now, although I doubt mine will look as awesome as yours. Still not sure I’ll try the checks with my mega unsteady hands. Underside shots would be appreciated as I’m curious about the landing skid and ordnance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted September 15, 2019 Author Share Posted September 15, 2019 DakkaJets - Finished, just need to do the other 2 bases and these are complete. , also some underside shots for Burni..

Fajita Fan Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I'm going to spray my orks tomorrow. Are you doing those checker with a brush? They look better than mine done with a Micron pen. Edited September 16, 2019 by Fajita Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 Brush... a very fine straight tip with watered down paint...and patience.... Good luck with your Orks , post em up for us to see when your done... Cheers, Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Beautiful work on the Ork flyers. MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burni Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Just brilliant Mithril and thanks for the photos! I painted my first DakkaJet yesterday and compared to yours it looks like one of the internet memes where you have a pro cake (yours) and then a terrible attempt at a copy (mine). Nailed it... :( MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reyner Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 My Orks are going to be Goffs but damn your Deathskullz blue looks awesome. I am using contrasts for all mine as I am a terrible painter and wanted to try something new :P MithrilForge 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I really think that contrast are the way to go on these models, especially over metallic basecoats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
