Here is one of the Psykers I finished.


Constructive criticism is more than welcome.

nice, maybe add more shading to the face?

I agree about adding some more shading to the face. And my perfectionist tendencies also say fix the aquila on his staff but thats just me

Thanks, i will work on his face in the morning. I tried to fix the wings, and that was the best i could get them at without breaking them. GW's packaging tends to destroy staffs it seems. D= thanks again for the CC.

What I usually find is good for faces is devlan mud wash, then drybrush with Tallarn flesh, or whatever flesh shade you are using

I added another wash of brown, with a highlight of talharan flesh, this time (rather than pale flesh) and, tho the change is subtle I think it came out nicely.


Messed with the lighting and white balance and accidentally got this.

The extra wash and highlights look great. Nice job.

exellent really.. other squad members??

thats looking sweet my friend.

Looking good! Also, zmay I ask how you did the writing on the scroll? Fine brush or pen?

it looks very nice, but I would suggest highlighting the fringe on the sash. I think it would break up the swath of color on the sash, and the fringe tends to get a bit more frayed and tattered than the rest of the sash anyway.


Still looks good, though.

Thank you for all the comments, I did the scroll work with a 5/0 IMEX No.9725 brush(super fine point) and a steady hand . I will have to add a highlight to the sash, and i do have another guy painted, but he's in a display case. also if anyone knows any models (like from Malafo) I don't want to get a 10 man psyker squad of the same 3 guys >.<

100% agreed... I was using the old Flesh Wash that I had left over with the Tallarn Flesh... Devlan Mud looks 3x better.

I used to use a flesh wash before i started highlighting, but it does look a lot better when you use Delvan mud rather than flesh in my opinion.

Flesh wash is horrible, it just turns the flesh brown rather sinking into the recesses
