I’m not entirely sure how I feel after all that…
Once it’s based, I’ll have a better idea if that was a success or not
I’m still unconvinced the effort of painting that the long way is meaningfully better than using Contrast with a highlight instead (middle). Raw Contrast (right) isn’t enough, at least, but the middle option looks kinda good too
1 down, 95 to go
The first step
There are few things quite as satisfying as slapping down Skeleton Horde Contrast paint on an actual skeleton
It's not 'Eavy Metal, but it's not that bad!
You did say you wanted the return of classic models…
So enjoy cutting off all the flash and metal gates, sanding, resculpting missing detail, pinning, Green Stuff-ing all the massive gaps, and cutting new slots in the plastic base to fit the actual tabs in the model 😅
This Green Knight sculpt is gorgeous, but I’m definitely feeling the curl of the monkey’s paw
And we’re done! One Terminator Chaplain repaint complete 😄
More skellies! Have to search my bits box for the rest of the shields, mind
Next assembly line up and running. Left is washed. Middle is recess-shaded. Right is finished test mini. Painting is exhausting 😴
I’m still highlighting these Death Guard. Finding all those edges is *exhausting*; I can manage maybe a couple a night
It’s slow going, but next up is the metallics and that will make a big difference quickly
Getting closer to the finish line 🏁
NGL, this has been a marathon project. Certainly in no rush to paint any more Death Guard in immediate future 😅 Can’t argue with the results!
Dat sword though
Fleshy.
Not a whole lot left here! Bones, cloth, and final details
Cloth!
