If you're doing Salamanders then shouldn't that be a Redeemer?

Fantastic work on everything - I like how you don't just focus on one army, but do a little of everything. Kind of like what I do. Except you paint much much better.

Great work on everything, I'd like to see some IG tanks in the future maybe?

Love your work, very nice style and great looking models, i'd love to see a step by step for how you paint those bases you have? it's a nice dirty city fight style i'm quite partial to!

Alright Nerdfest09, i made atutorial for you Also i would like to apologize for the quality of the pictures.

basecoat the bases in scorched brown



paint any parts that will be metallic or black in chaos black



paint other areas in the colors of your choice. for example i painted the Eldar tank parts in blood red for Saim-Hann and the Rhino turret in snot green for Salamanders



Paint metallic parts. I used boltgun metal for the silver. After the painting the silver areas, cover the bases in black wash. I used the heavy body black recipe from Les at Awesome paintjob. clean up excess wash with a paper towel.


I forgot to take a picture of this step, but it is easy and you should have no problems with it. Use scorched brown and stipple mud effects around the edges on all of the parts

Next use the mud from a Tamiya weathering master kit



Use the weathering kit on all of the surfaces of the bases



And there you go

I also finished a couple of my dragonforge bases.



Other ones that are still being worked on
