Wow, i love what you've done with it. It's a little worrying how good a base model it is for a Daemonic Abaddon, and the loin cloth seems to have done wonders for the pose! Can't wait to see it finished.
On a side note, how do you guys paint stuff so fast?

Yeah, the photoshop of Guilliman with a cloak also helps fix the pose; either way a loincloth/cloak seems to fill in the weird wide-leg stance and gives a sense of movement which justifies the twisted pose to your eye.
It's weird that GW didn't put either one of those on the base model, particularly when pretty much every other SM character has them.
Guess I'll have to break out the green stuff when I get him!
Oh and Melcavuk, you've done a fantastic job there, a really natural looking conversion, rather than "Guilliman with a few Chaos bits stuck on".

Dipping With Wood Stain
|
Hi all,
I've been working on a Space Marines Assault Squad based off of the bad guys from Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. Next up is Gravatina.
Here's the inspiration.
Here's the WIP. I forgot to take a "before" photo so I hope Para can give me a pass. Mea cupla.
Hmm, looking at this I see the blue needs to have a wee bit more green in it.
Lots of good stuff this month.
Take care and be well.

It was a bit of an experiment. Silver base. Nulan Oil over that, and then the green soulstone paint on top. I’ve tried using the soulstone paints on weapons before, but generally over a clean base. The wash dries unevenly, giving the “power field” a bit more flicker to it. Not a consistent glow.
I’m happy with the way it turned out.

I noticed that as well had to give two nice coats of it to make it look anything worthwhile. I'll definitely try it with nuln oil between the base and soul stone paint next time! Thanks for the tip!

Pretty much done (not my final entry pictures btw), I am thinking of repainting the base to be a regular stone color with some moss and what not.

I have exams until the 31st. So either I try and rush one dude over the next four days or try and spend all Friday 31st rushing the three of them. I don't actually know if I have Friday free though. Oh well. I did manage to get down one and a bit layers of retribution armour.

Then comes along the frakking Spinosaurus who kills the T-rex, and the movie says "LOVE THIS NOW! HE IS BETTER" But...in your heart, you love the T-rex, who shouldn't have lost to no stupid Spinosaurus. So you hate the movie. And refuse to love the Spinosaurus because it is a hamfisted attempt at taking what you loved, making it TREX +++ and trying to sell you it.

Managed to get the airbrush out and i think i managed to do a decent job for my first attempt, wasn't sure if the zenithal had even worked until i put the red on as the silvers just blended into each other.
Also is a bit orange but thats ok, should be able to finish him up tomorrow.
