[koganinja]

I’m trying to get hold of the yellow one has I’m doing a full 3000 point eldar army based on his purple heart model and need to get hold of him to find out his tech for doing it thanks

 

[Ritual]

Have you tried sending him a PM?

 

[koganinja]

i sent a pm about a week and a bit ago but not a pep back

 

[Avelorn]

He usually responds. So maybe he\'s been away?

Are you thinking of this mini?

 

[koganinja]

Yes thats the one so if anybody knows how to do this plz let me know asap i have just spent 300 pounds today just on paints and brushes just for this project

maybe it was drybrushed? I could be wrong though...


:innocent:

You see how it goes when you dont lick brushes.. the man haven\'t got a clue!

I\'m going to get back to you in a while if Kiril himself doesn\'t answer. But you have set youself a mighty task.. and if you want it to look like that you will have to invest a lot of time and draw and make concepts before. The most challenging part I think will be to do other kinds of models and improvise the same pattern. But try first drawing the patterns and getting a feel for it.

Looks like im off to the art shop for pencils and a a3 pad then lol

thank you for the offer of coming back and helping thank very much

 

[funnymouth]

im sure its a freehand, and it clearly seems to be inspired by giger alien art (H.R. Giger). it would be a good place to start.
eg:

 

[koganinja]

Yes i know

im a big h.r giger fan and have most of his books

Same way Luke did this ELDAR

Its freehand, painted on. As far as I know its done by adding successive layers to build up the highlights and opacity of the paint.

Thats why he/she spent £300 on them!

I would start by painting thin lines over everywhere you want a pattern, then just build up on that with many layers.

But don\'t expect anything over night, and be really patient.

 

[koganinja]
