Demihuman's DemiWIP

[oistene]

Blue OSL and orange rust, it'll look like a movie poster!

Oh, and I love the baby pathfinder!

 

[Meph]

Yeah, looks good. Cool base and an interesting build.

 

[Demihuman]

Hobby Time!

Putting some pigments on the Pathfinder.

Next step is seal, then I will tackle my osl spots with the airbrush clean it up and call it done!

 

[Zab]

Nice! i see some beakies on the bench too!

 

[Demihuman]

Nice! i see some beakies on the bench too!

ugh... That's the SM Captain from the black reach box. I need to just cover him in testors gold dip him in urethane varnish an call him done. Testor's gold might actually be the answer

 

[Demihuman]

...and calling this guy done:

might be e-baying this one. I need a new compressor pretty bad

 

[Zab]

Nice! Now finish those beakies Just dip it!

 

[Khonner]

Nice OSL on it Demi..

 

[oistene]

I love it. How do you do your pigments, do you mix 'em before you apply them?

 

[SkelettetS]

looks great! a shame to ebay it but at least for a good cause

 

[Bailey03]

Very nice! I like the glowing blue and the rust.

 

[Gandalf the Grey]

Very nice work, blue glow is spot on.

 

[wargamesculptor]

Very nice piece Demi and fits well with the base

Thanks all!

Oistene, for relatively heavy pigments like this I mix the pigments with water and a few drops of matte medium. I have used some other stuff and didn't really like it. On the bot I did red/brown then red earth then bright orange. I came back in with Reaper Explosion Orange and did a few spots of that to help set off the glowy blue. I also use rubbing alcohol to clean up the pigments. It works great as long as they aren't too old. It also works good to clean up over spray from the air brush as long as you get to it pretty quickly. I try to always seal before I do pigments and before I do airbrush osl like this. That way if i really screw up I can just throw the whole thing in the sink

First of all what do you guys mean when you say dip it. Second of all how did you get the blue led inside the mini, cause that glow man....

 

[oistene]

I'm going to try that the next time, I've mostly put on my pigments dry, then sealed them. Works well but flattens them, I'd like to be able to get the 3D effect sometimes.

It gets a lot of hate, but I think it has some uses. It won't get you good results alone, but with a little effort, it can look good. Also, great for getting armies on the table quick.

 

[Digganob]

Is that stuff for realz?

 

[oistene]

Sure is. I've used it on all my zombicide zombies. Basecoat, dip, dullcote, paint eyes and blood effect. Done. Except I never dip, I apply the quickshade by brush. Better results, takes only a little longer and not as much mess.

Okay, I'll stop singing the praise of the dip now before I get myself banned and shunned.

 

[Maenas]

Is that stuff for realz?

Yes it is! But I won't use it on high elves or similar clean looking armies.
PS: Did not see your reply too much time with window opened without refreshing... xD

 

[Digganob]
