Red again!?!
Hey gang, I see I was beaten to the forums (darn sleep requirements).
A 9.9? I thank you for your confidence but I doubt that. Especially with snipers around. We\'ll see how it settles after a few days.
Yes another Khorne model. Go easy on my guys, remember, I am one of those who PLAYS with painted miniatures
. I have to finish that army! That\' why it\'s the same color scheme and a matching base to Magmatrax\'s.
Gold and Red I really think I got down. I tried a slightly different approach on my Gold and I think this is much better. The Red Sheen on the armor is also something I think I have achieved well enough to move on to different techniques.
Steel I\'m very proud of, I wanted a more muted backside, since the steel serves more practical functions than ornemental functions like the gold. I wanted the blades and a few more polished steel features to contrast a little also. I\'m surprised at people\'s reaction towards the Steel, that\'s what I\'m most proud of (mainly because I couldn\'t paint steel to save my life before this project).
Though I will make more Khorne from time to time, My basic batallion is complete, so I am in negotiations with Tzeench and Nurgle for the next projects. Both have made interesting offers so I might strike a pack with \'em both
I will also try different styles, going into the darker, grittier feel, though I\'m afraid my personnal preference will drag me back to the clean-cut fantasy look...

*** EDIT: Almost forgot, the blades. I felt that the counter-rotative pattern was better suited to flesh and steel rending
.
Actually, around the center of the blades were small inscripotions engraved, and I was afraid those would show through the paint. So I hid the the remainder of the inscriptions on both blades under the chain mechanism (part of the inscription was already hidden undet the wheel \"hubcaps\" acting as blade core support. ***
