Great Job!

You've darkened the red just enough, so many folk have bright red blood angels, this is perfect! Keep it up!

@ Nrljm - Thanks .. I don't use a lot of the extreme highlights .. mainly do a lot of extreme shadows .. Start with dark red (like Mech Foundation) then add shadows with black wash, start layering 50/50 of Blood red for the highlights, transition with scab red .. add more shadow or highlights as needed 8) .. I've had some other requests so I'll try to make a more detailed how to soon..

@ Spaced - Thanks! .. I wanted my Angels to looks a bit ragid .. so I made their armour look well used ! 8)

I figured I'd just add the other mini's to this one as well instead of creating a whole other thread..

Eldar Pathfinder



Eldar Scorpion ( I wanted him to be a little more stealthy instead of rocking the neon green look 8) )



IG Heavy Bolter Team

Love the color choices and paint job on that Scorpion especially.

Thanks .. I always thought being BRIGHT green was a little counter preductive for a stealthy guy .. unless you are in very high grass I suppose 8)

Nice models I especailly like the colour choice on the Scorpion!

Keep it up

Love them they look great!

Thanks !! glad you guys like them 8)

Lately I've had some requests on how I paint my Reds.. so I made up a quick How I Paint Redson my blog .. check it out if interested 8)

Sang Priest Kit Bash.. I went with DA Robes to give him the Priest feel.. The pics are older and a bit dark, I need to reshoot him haha



Death Korp Melta Dude

Really good stuff, definately gonna steal the priest kitbash

Thanks ..

Cool .. go for it 8)

I finished up the first guy from my Custom Chapter .. Dusk Wolf Lightning Claw Terminator

I really like the darkening in the corners on the rhino. is that just a wash?

Thanks .. All of the fading was done with the airbrush and then the final details were done with weathering powders. The really dark areas are from the powders .. I wanted it to have a real worn and dirty look 8)

A Wave Serpent I just finished up .. I also added a how to Drybrush Blend on my blog, check it out if interested 8) Thanks for looking..

Finished up a Land Speeder I've been working on last night ..

I love your vehicles. The armor plate really looks like armor plate.

Man I just love your work. Seriously those are some great Blood Angels, some of the best I've ever seen. You're darkened red technique really stands out and I can see it being used by others in the future. Keep up the good work.

Loving all of your work. Your (non) highlighting on the red is very effective, (and well done), your vehicles (esp the eldar tank) are awesome, and you are very creative and unique with your color choices. Great stuff!

Thanks! Glad you guys are liking them 8) I wanted them to look worn and a bit grimmy, plus I think it gives them a more real feel.. to me at least haha I have one more Falcon to finish and I'll be done with the Eldar Tanks for awhile .. I've painted too many haha ..

Here's another finished BA ..




New Style Prism..

Very different paint styles between the Eldar and BA vehicles. Both look fantastic. There are lots of great details on every BA model that truly makes it unique. Great work overall.

Thanks for sharing.

Great work. my favorite would be Thaddeous

Awesome stuff!

I am LOVING your BA space marines! I love the blue affect on the jump packs. How do you get your Red to stand out like that? when I painted a BA the red was very VERY dark. I did use a Black undercoat but I had about 2 layers of red

What an amazing job! I love that you have gone with a deeper red for your Blood Angels instead of that Orangie-Red that defines Blood Angels. Keep up the great work and make us fellow Blood Angel players proud

Your stuff is pretty awesome keep up the great work !

@ Sarigar - Thanks.. I wanted them to look completely different as I figure Eldar and Humans would have a completely different mindset .. plus the materials of their constructions would also make a difference .. plus keeps me sane painting different stuff haha

@ HelSing - Thanks man 8) I put a good bit of time into him but I'm pretty happy with the out come 8)

@ Capt - Thanks!

@ Nightfall - Thanks .. I have a tutorial for how I paint red on my blog if you want to check it out .. Sincain40K

@ Iron Maiden - Thanks ,, always ! 8)

@ Ghost - Thanks!

These are top notch! The conversions look awesome and are believable. Keep up the good work!

Good job.

Good looking stuff here.

Nice and grim image with the BA. Thou the land speeder is probably my favorite, just love that weathering.
