Nice army - you've got quite the living metal horde

I really love how you get the gauss flayers to other colours. For the rods do you just prime and paint over them or do you wash them to keep the transparency?

They're primed and painted - I'm going for a "sparkling" kind of look, I'm getting better at it especially since I figured out how to get my gloss varnish to set smooth(er).

Homer: Mono... D'oh!

You've totally got that weathered brass look perfectly. Must remeber your simple, yet amazing, technique if I ever re-dabble with 'crons.

Monolith looks ace.




Homer, There's a man here that thinks he can help you.

Batman?

No, he's a scientist.

Batman's a scientist.

It's NOT Batman.

Would you be willing to do a lightning tutorial?

Wow, one of the nicest monorails ive ever seen!

Apart form Atropos of course (check his out, its crazy!!)

The verdigris looks great! The blue rods look greater!! The lightning effect on that Monolith looks...greaterer?

Excellent work

Re-enforcements for Green Squad!

After much fiddling and mind changing I've finally finished my prototype custom Flayed One!

The next ones will have better "hands" and I'll try to think of a better way to attach the knives; also thinner skin perhaps

wow really nice

Here's my second go at a custom Flayed One - I'm happier with the pose and "hands" but the colour of the skin is a bit basic/warm/something! Once I've managed a skin colour I'm happy with, both will probably get re-painted.
C&C and gallery votes welcome

While I decide whether I'm selling my army, here's my Nightbringer that I painted a while ago. He needed some touching up here and there, but I never got around to it
