Ok so white base it is %^&* done 3 with black bases

that is a nice looking model.... the base is very calm looking... i actually like that...!

one question tho... when opening the door... inside is unpainted? will it stay that way...?

May try and red it or green cant remember the movies.

hmmm... yeah that would look good... like in tanks and submarines...!

a green drybrush over black then? not too much...

ok Green primer on the inside

LOL... yeah... that would work too... but i bet it would look... well... you know...

Dee,

Like the Carcharodons. I think you have captured the grittiness of the chapter very well. Too bad your not in the states we can always use another “Warder!”

Still I going to offer some suggestions as I think your painting is progressing to a new level ( someday mine will as well). As always meant in the spirit of helping. God know I need it as well!
I think the darker color scheme call for some lighter highlights ( or maybe the pictures don't do them justice). Some even more lighter dry brushing on some of the outward edges will make them "pop".

With the excellent color blending of your figures you need to add an lighter splash of color to the eye lenses. There are some great tutorials for lenses and I find myself getting better at it every time I try. I'm finding that the extra attention make them look more serious and is an easy way to bring my models quality up.

Darken some of the vent areas on the Stormraven, this will add some depth to them and give more dimensions. Add some streaks to the Stormraven vents and seams. The key is to find the right amount. A slight oil stains from the vents give the feel of a more working machine. Lastly I think it’s better to paint the track of vehicles black and drybrush up the wear than trying to darken them afterwards. I have gone from no wear and tear to all wear and tear.. something it took me a long time to come to grips with. I still think my Lamenters look better as a " in the breach" kinda chapter. Not for everyone.

Lastly, Git has started me working on a new technique where I base coat black from the underside and then basecoat white from the top. When I apply my real color I start with a natural shading. I think this would be great with the grays’ you are using. I think the original technique came from GD.

Anyhoo.. excellent work and keep going. They are becoming a great looking cohesive looking army for you. Well done!

TY SL Huggs

I like your paint scheme

Here's an idea... Try drybrushing some of the torsos and inner thighs with a white...kinda make it look like the white belly of a shark?

Just a thought..

Keep up the updates, I love seeing work in progress turn into a finished product

There should be some nose art for aircraft that has some " teeth" on the nose cone

I'm guessing you'd have to be creative to pull it off, but I say you have all the skills to do it.

I has transfers ...........

TBH, I'm not sure how you could make 'teeth' work well on a stormraven - not really the right kind of nose shape for it - I just like the idea of Space Sharks doing that sort of thing

all the Marine stuff is brick shaped

Here is the inside and transfers........

Good job on gettting the transfers spot on !

Started on the bases the last few days... and a few more transfers as well.
