I'll post some more pictures once the highlighting is done on the new scheme and get your opinions again - in person the models look much better imo.

*edit*

Ooooh - 2nd page First.

Since Knightley asked so nice I have a treat for you.

A finished unit of Kabalite Warriors, and a test model for my wych squad that is 80% complete


Kabalite Warriors of the Corpse Forest:





(Stupid macro focus)

















Full Unit:



And my Wych of the Corpse Light Cult.



Pretty happy with how they are looking so far.

I have work tomorrow so I won't get much done... but hey - it was a productive weekend.



Oh yea - and here is a comparison of the old and new schemes:







Tell me what you think of the change.

Please excuse the bad lighting also - just imagine everything is less yellow than it looks.

I'm sure with counselling you will come to forgive me.

Digging the more subtle highlights, the before and after shows it quite well.

Thanks guys I am really happy with the new scheme - the other one just make me angry :|

For the Orange colour hair all I did was a base coat of Macharius Solar Orange, then a leviathan purple wash, then another coat of Macharius Solar Orange to make it a nice crisp colour.

I'm sure with counselling you will come to forgive me.

I'm sorry I ever doubted you! That new scheme looks great! It's much 'softer' than the last one, and you haven't lost any armour detail at all! The orange looks great too.

Finally I give you the completed wych for my first unit.

I am in the process of batch painting the rest of the unit.

Also - I only just discovered that scaly green is out of production... when did that happen?!?! This last pot has to paint my entire army :( unless I find an alternative.

Anywho:



This is a shot of the skin tone that I settled on.



nice and simple as well. Goes like this: Deneb Stone - Leviathan purple wash - Deneb stone - ogryn flesh wash - Deneb stone... done!

Enjoy

If Scaly Green is no longer available, you could look at using a Vallejo (who make similar colours to GW) or Coat d'Arms (who I heard manufacture the GW paints and have the out of stock ones) replacement. Maelstrom sells both.

The wych looks great! Are you going to paint her gun similar to the rifles?

For all those patient people I have some more painting done.

Batch painting is for bi-winning.

A little bit left to do. Bases, Some details, and the black highlights. But almost done.



















Thanks for checking in - soon there will be a succubus and a raider, if you are good.

Looking pretty good there, shame about the lighting, guess your going to have to invest in a light box

Basically finished the Wych squad - but while I was taking photos realised I never went back and painted the agoniser... so I'll have to do that. :|

but here they are - the sexy cult of the Corpse Light.

Test model:



unit:



















Some of the unit mascots and greebly beasts:









(The ladies like the cute things.)

And a unit comparison to make sure the scheme works with ehte Kabalite warriors:



I'm pretty happy - next purchase is going to be an Archon or a Succubus (Forum decide for me...) and possibly something else - what should I get team?!

Looking schmexy.

As a bonus - check out my awesome Light box set up - which provides me with my awesome photo ability.
