WIP pics from my Genestealer Cult project (counts as Astra Militarum + Tyranid allies)

(The Chimera pics are already in the gallery. I've added it here so that the entire 'Stealer Cult is together in one place)

And finally the ugly guy himself:



The rust was painted in the following way:
1: First the metal was given a wash of Agrax Earthshade (Citadel)
2: Spots and stripes were made with several layers of Carroburg Crimson (Citadel)
3: A couple of layers of Bloodletter (Citadel), slightly bigger than the carroburg crimson spots
4: I then used an old brush to apply nasty, crusty spots of Rust Effect (Modelmates)
5: Finally I drybrushed the crust of the Rust Effect spots with Ryza Rust (Citadel), and added streaks of watered down ryza rust to the rust stripes.

The trick is to remember that rust will form where water will flow and pool, especially around rivets.





I found the purple pattern online, and found it unusual and interesting. I like the insect-like look caused by the glossy varnish (Ard Coat). The arms are magnetized.



This guy is supposed to count as an Astra Militarum Heavy Weapon Team.



I think I'll add a mutated horror to the tank, peeking out of the hatch.

This guy'll count as a Priest. The conversion was really easy, it's a Forge World Renegade with a cultist autogun and some Dark Eldar chains.




This is the basic color scheme I'll use for my grunts -the nameless, horde of expendable goons.
