[Commission] Sigur paints Death Korps of Krieg!

[Sigur]

Heya, after much back and forth, painting testminis and making up colour schemes, I finally got the first bunch of Death Korps of Krieg miniatures for this commission army and here's the first WIP:

Hope you like them so far. It's a different scheme but I think it goes incredibly well with the minis and gives them some contrast DKOK armies so often lack. There are closer pictures coming up soon. C&C welcome!

They look great! I dig the color scheme (American Revolution colonial inspired perhaps?). Only suggestion I'd have is MUD! Especially on their nice white socks.

i agree about the mud thing, they are trenchers after all. but they do looks great, and i love the wooden bases the command group is put at :good:

@khavor: Thanks. The colourscheme is inspired by late 19th century/early 20th century french troops. I tried to get some colour on these minis (which I think that the usual DKOK armies sadly lack) and the crests on the helmets reminded me a lot of French Adrian helmets. No much mud on those guys because they're supposed to run around in a devastated city so I went for more of a dusty approach to weathering (which I still have to tidy up a little).

@SkelettetS: Cheers, I'll do a bit more of a dust thing on those instead of mud but the command squad will get a very nice scenic base.



Update!

Today I reorganized some boxes of stuff and dusted off a shelf. Seeya!


P.S.: Here's some pictures of stuff too.

Examples of DKOK dudes a bit more close up:

An Imperial Fists Veteran I did as a test mini for a possibly upcoming army:

Anyhoo, I hope you like everything so far. C&C welcome as always.

Very nice! I'd say the weathering looks spot on in the closeups. Client should be very happy with them. Good looking Imperial Fist too. A whole army of him would be really impressive.

Nice!
Really impressed with the Imperial Fist guy as well!
Great work on that yellow.

@khavor: Thank you. Really glad you like the weathering because I don't do it too often with pigments (and on infantry in general).

@jesterzUSMC: Many thanks.



I just finished that piece of scenery for the command squad and some more painting:

Now that's just pretty....
