Nice Online!!!


Are you going to do much more to them?

Nice!

No actually just a grey light drybrush and the eyes.

NIice man that's a quick efficient way to get good result!.

Well, someone better call the ghostbusters it seems.

Things to do, Eyes.
Well and the venomcrawler, MoP, Psykers and lords aswell as greater possesed.

Albeit these will get a bit more other colours.

They're really, really good; from concept to execution. Have an exalt.

Can you share how you painted them in more detail? I'm going to try for the same look on the Spirit Hosts I'll be running as Spawn.

Sure: i basically took the the concept art video from GW:


I however wanted to have a darker look overall so i used the Coelia greenshade more liberally, basically i double washed instead of just the recesses. Then i readded a layer of hexwraith again , even more thinned this time over those that turned out too dark.
Then i used ulthuan grey and just drybrushed them, somewhat liberally on some, less on others to get a bit of "variance " in it.

The next step i have planned are the eyes, i will however make a fireyred orange. Then the more strongly connected to the warp get a small drybrush amount over them with that mixture, especially the venomcrawler.


that's it.
2 shades, drybrush colour, 2 mixed colours for the eyes and the details, and a grey spray.
Also because you don't need to be 100% correct with the scheme you can as you see even as a lazy painter crank out good looking miniatures rather fast.

well, drybrushing is done. (for most parts) must make some decent photos of the MoP tho since i somehow fethed them.......
(don't do photos at 2AM it seems....)

Also eyes. Personal favorite sofar, the Greater possesed.

The Chained. Anchor of souls.







His Aides.





The Chosen:





Greater Possessed.







Venomcrawler:



Obliterators:



Cultists:





Fodder:

The Cursed: 1200 / 1300 pts finished. less then one month overall used. Army so far fielded once; result "I AM ALPHARIUS WHACK OMEGON" fun., also a huge ammount of -1 / -2 made the list hillariously durable. The rather insane ammount of Charachters also leads to a lot of Melee shenanigans.

They are glorious.

I am firmly of the opinion that a knight in these colours would be an interesting addition

On the other hand, I probably am going to add either a new Anvil militia (the second wave as great helmets fitting an irregular part of the 31.st ) or a Knight army, altough my abmiissal skills with magnets will hinder me quite a bit .


maybee both.

anyways, here's the whole army:
Left upper corner, the Battalion. Right upper part is heavy support detachments and a vanguard at the bottom.

Also 10'000 + views?
how come?

Yup, that scheme with the addition of the red details worked great, well done ! Way to kill a painting backlog ^^ (Although I do not doubt your capacity to build more heretic stuff !) !

That turned out better then expected really

I am especially fond of the cultists poxwalkers.
They turned out insanly nice.

Not Online!!!,

Congrats on reducing the armies of the unpainted.

Cheers,

CB

So, I looked at them again and yeah, they're glorious but it's worth mentioning that The Chained is fething magnificent.

I'm seriously in love with them, to the point that I might change my plans for my Heretic Astartes and do this instead.

since you generally are the better Painter then me i would say just try it.
It is a simple and amazing baseline sheme that can be applied fast.
Modification is also easy as you can see.
Accuracy is only really required on the Eye detail.

Infact i would suspect a Blue wash sheme would also look rather amazing along the same lines.

Do people even remember these?

Anyways, found some time and wanted to go back to my old theme:

Progress has been made.
Also addmittedly i now am a better and faster painter. Still, i think these two need a bigger, meaner brother!





Now missing on the one to the right is the metal paint. A metal drybrush on the armored parts and the teeth. Then washing in Nuln Oil.

Then i should probably start working on the crew for my field guns. and on my militia force...... and my 31. and the squad of CSM still staning around unpainted and on the defiler and on the fixed up old Dread and and and and and.

So, please now i need names, NAMES FOR THE NAME GOD!






Name this! Please.

Also, needs some washing and the skulls trophy needs to be made white.
have i missed something else?

oh and the Hades has some missing black, gotta go fix this fast.

Oh, I see. A big thingy.

Jaws?

Did you ever see the show Spaced? They built a robot (for Robot Wars) called 'TFU', which board rules prohibit me from explaining, but which might be appropriate. The Bakhauv? Beerwolf? Elwetritsch? Nachzehrer? The Rasselbock?

Tatzelwurm?

Tatzelwurm?

I like .

You know what it is right?

Yeah, I went to a wiki on Germanic folk-lore and pulled some stuff that seemed fitting/cool.

IN swiss german standard german (yes switzerland has it's own high german, no WE WON'T ADOPT THE FILTHY GERMAN GERMAN * angry fistshaking) we well use Tatzelwurm also for this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myriapoda .

and is also a rather liked children book here.

Altough i belive you meant this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tatzelwurm which is a Stollenwurm (mineshaft worm or mineshaft wyrm). (YES AGAIN WE WON'T CONFORM TO FILTHY GERMAN GERMAN NAMING CONVENTIONS* further agitated fist shaking)


Altough i gotta say,Tatzelwurm or Stollenwurm makes actually quite sense.

(Sidenote, i am neither angry nor hostile to germans, i mainly am jabbing jokes at them and high german!)

400 pictures for the picture god!

Also.

I LOVE WAR!

really like those ghosts

Thanks.

Appreciated.

I probably at some point will expand them a bit. really depends though on Anvil industry and their new stuff.

Yeah, the wiki I was on linked to a description of what you're calling a Stollenwurm.

Personally, I prefer Tatzelwurm just because of the way it sounds, but I can't speak German beyond tourist-level and have no real experience of Swiss culture aside from accidentally invading one time via Vallorcine. Of course, it's your crack/nationalism.



Also, 'stollen' makes me think of cake.

well it is kinda necessary for swiss to be nationalistic, since well the whole schtick of Willensnations vs Nationsstate is relevant for our existience

Stollen is also this:https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stollen_(Geb%C3%A4ck) it's traditional christmas food aswell.

As for the whole german german and swiss german thing, it is symptomatic that if a swiss german attempts to speak high german the german complains that he should "Stop speaking dialect" which is insulting because the swiss german dialect he would not even understand (except if he is from voralberg but that has other reasons), and yes at the day i had to talk to a german for 1/2 H in which he constatnly complained about my swiss high german to the point i just started trolling the poor fellow with rel swiss german words.

As grandma always told me: Schadenfreude is a beautifull Hapiness.

Have been away so wasn't able to comment. Very nice work Not Online, keep it up!



Cheers.

Soon TM,
