Epic's WIPs

[Teronus]

Nice, Looks rusty like a pro. That's Nurgle?

 

[EpicMiniArt]

yeah, Death guard legion, which are pro nurlge and papa nurgle infected them with his love.

tbh I love nurgle and the whole death and decay thing

 

[oistene]

Kinda looks like it crawled out of the ocean. I like it a lot.

 

[EpicMiniArt]

Done a little more on the eye area which I'm rather please how they've turned out but will prop need a bit more work once the rest of the armor is done

 

[BloodASmedium]

Well done!!

 

[oistene]

Eyes look great! Once done, I think you should give them some 'Ardcoat or water effect to make them stay wet, it will make them stick out and seem more organic.

 

[EpicMiniArt]

yeah, i'll do those bits once the model is finished, incase I have to go back over anything

 

[BloodASmedium]

Looking really creepy and diseased ridden!!! Iow great job on the greens and the eyes look scary!!!

 

[EpicMiniArt]

its how I envisioned it

 

[Teronus]

Good job buddy, the eye is great.

 

[BloodASmedium]

This IS

THIS IS going to be your signature piece!!!see if I mm fooling around and it was all because you LearNed exceptionally fast on that or know anything green is great!!!when I first set up my w I p I was gonna name it "all things gree and in b/n"
Awesomely don't free d!

 

[moetle]

Very nice!

 

[EpicMiniArt]

thanks guys, you lot are golden. haven't got much done. Was out for father in law's 60th birthday bash, mind you having a break from the brushes is never that bad as you come back with new eyes.

 

[EpicMiniArt]

so an update on where I'm too with the nurgle dreadnaught

 

[moetle]

Nice and Nurgelish! Looks good. Are you going to put eyes on the arm cameras as well?

 

[EpicMiniArt]

I was going to paint them as lenes, but what a great idea, deff gonna nap that one cheers Moetle

 

[moetle]

No problem, have at it! Looking forward to seeing them

 

[BloodASmedium]

Yes lenses as eyes is genius great one MOETLE and btw 8.5-9.0 very firkin well done on the metals remember the scratches that are there and if you decide to put more and I'm not saying it needs them it's great as is but REM tight thin scratches it's very sharp that way.the metals are exactly like mine amazing what people can do when they actually want to improve and I'm not saying I'm the greatest teacher out there or the best technical painter but obviously epic and me clicked and he has excelled above and beyond from the point where he was and literally weeks later to the point where he is now...IM SHITE DAMNIT PROUD OF THIS MAN HES DEF AN EDUCATED LAD AND A STRONG ANALYTICAL MIND WHO NOW HAS NOT JUST A GRIP ON COLORS THEORY BUT IM CONFIDENT TO SAY HE CAN TEACH US ALL A FEW THINGS ABOUT..HES GOT A HOLD ON COLORS THEORY LIKE A PIT BALLS BITE..PERIOD.

WELL DONE YOUNG MAN

 

[Teronus]

I was going to say refine your scratches but the master spoke before me, great job Epic.

 

[EpicMiniArt]

ha, thanks for the encouraging words, there is still so so much to learn.... as you can see I opted to blend purple into the green and glaze with yellows which has given it a really unhealthy bruised look, which I totally love. a couple of scratchs could do with tightening up... I'll give glaze some purple over them and go back over them. as for more scratches, it looks ok atm, might decide to add a few more after the model has been assembled...

I wanted the dread to look like its spent a few 1000's years wondering on a Nurgle swamp world and I think I have pulled that off rather well, but again this would of been impossible without BAM giving me a kick up the backside lol. Honestly we like clicked and I just get everything he says and I think BAM's painting style is going to heavily influence the way I paint although I will develop my own style out of it, but you will always trace it back to its roots

I opted for the original death guard colours for the helmet to tie the model back to its history
