Great job and nice contrasts !!

Forgive me if this has already been mentioned, but:
Have you ever tried "foam weathering"? Simply use the edge of blister pack foam and dip it into a tiny bit of rust-colored paint and dab onto edges of your model. You could also use a silver-color to use on darker fields to replicate a chipped paint effect.

no, i never heard of that before, but it sounds interesting, i might try it out sometime thanks
anyways, i just finished the blade of the power sword thing, i hope you like it

skotter

Ohhh that's cool much more menacing than the glowy blue that's everywhere. You going to add any lighting effects IE red glow Arounf the base of the blade?

how do you give it the glowing effect? nice job though!

black basecoat, red gore over the whole sword except the top
then blood red at the bodem, blazing orange and golden yellow. then with skull white very thin lighting stuf you know

@mullet_steve, thanks and no i wasn't planning on doing that

Fair enough.

That is a great colour scheme... the orange over the grey really jumps out at you.

Excellent! I'm honored that you used my idea

do you let the paint dry between each coat?

thanks

hey what color orange are you using for those hazard stripes?

i have to steal your power weapon technique lol its really good so far and i cant wait 4 more updates

@begginer: yes

@grundz: it is golden yellow, with a little wash of blazing orange

thanks

Industrial hazard stripes remind me of RTand 2nd Edition Terminators, and are brilliant. The Power weapons look beautiful and I recommend if you can, do a step by step Article so that everyone will stop bothering you with the same Questions!

One minor point, how are going to stop them looking like Perturabo's Iron Warriors in some captured Grey Knights Armour?, Grey Metal plus black and yellow stripes is very Iron Warriors!

Black Iron Warriors.... lol nah really good.

I am loving this but can't help but feel as if you're going to troll us by posting...

AHAHAH THEY WERE IRON WARRIORS ALL ALONG!

If you make an effort to really make the GK details stand out (the little molded lettering, etc) and draw attention to the heads I don't think anyone will confuse them with IW. Can't wait to see this weathered and finished!

- power weapons
-armor
-anymore?
and they are no iron warriors, i don't know how i'll make them look like real but old and forgotten grey knights

thanks for the support
