This is looking awesome.

Can I ask how you did the rust on the small spikes and rivets?

 

[BuzZin]

Hi gilmour,

for the rust i use a waterd down bestial brown, i wipe most paint off my brush using kitchen towl so it dosen't leave any pools of paint on the model. just use lots of layers to make it smoother

:O amazing.
Just simply amazing.

More please more :-D
Very good colors! The rust works good with the green armour, which is why you are using I guess..

sorry everyone iv been mad busy with my business and have had no time to paint, started a few nights ago and got some stuff done. iv got all the free hand to do and the wepons and wethering.

[BuzZin]

Thanks for the great comments!

has anyone got any tips for painting these patterns ?
Do u just paint it on then use washes over to create the saddows ect?

 

[Empchild]

Wow glad to see you are still posting on this model as I love it.

for something like that, i would paint the red, then do the pattern in the lighter tone, making a tad lighter than you want it, then wash the shadows

I would dread doing something as intricate as that and then having to wash over it lol. Great marine buddy. I would definately love to see what you come up with for your freehand pattern. I recently watched the natalya melnik dvd and she did wash over a texture she painted onto the cloak so i would guess she does the same for her freehand design as well.

Lookin' good Buzzin :good:

The thought of painting fancy patterns over a nicely blended base scares me, the washes over the pattern are a long way down the line! Good luck with it, should look very special indeed.

Cheers, B.

Thanks for all of your comments , i think il leave the free hand for a bit untill i have finnished the wepons. i have started the plasma pistol but cant decide on wether to give it a blue or red glow?? any ideas , or should it just blue.

 

[Yuggoth]

I vote for a blue glow, since a red one might interfere with the red of the cloth. Also, I would think a blue would give a nicer contrast with the yellow stripes. But I`m a noob with 0 minis posted, so don`t take my advice too serious :-D
Bloody great by the way, I`m loving the face!

 

[Empchild]

Blue would stand out better then red with these light colors.

 

[cheelfy]

Blue would definitely be better.

 

[dewil]

Definately blue for the contrast as mentioned above.
I think blue is a more plasma color anyways, i have tried red but it never look's quite as good as blue.
It's a nice looking marine btw. I like the metals very much and the face also looks really really good.

.../I think blue is a more plasma color anyways,/...

Well... The plasma we handled in school was very, very white, with a blue tint to it... Oh, and it went red/yellow where it hit any kind of matter and cooled down to flame temperature... But then again that was just plasma made from ordinary oxygen, not some fancy other gas.

i have worked more on the wepons and i have decided not to give him a banner as i want to concentrate more on the wethering and freehand on him.
