Hello All!

Here are pics from a model I sold on ebay nearly 2 years ago. A Blood Angels Lemartes, "Guardian of The Lost."

The model was primed all black. I used various shades of Shadow grey for the armor highlights. I used Blood Red and various shades of orange for the red details.

I hope you like it.

Thanks
D.

Looks prety good mate, nice and neat and tidy - I would have held onto it!

From blister to final clear coat. About 9 hours over two days. I let the primer harden the first day and set to work on the model the next day, which is where most of the 9 hours was spent.

i consider that to be really fast. that model is stuffed with details.

There are a few reasons for that.
I have been painting models for myself for 30 years and I have been painting models for other people since 2000.
And, it is my job. So, I have some experience in prepping and painting models that go onto game tables everywhere.

Yes, neat and tidy. I can't seem to make my metal minis as smooth as the plastic ones.

Brilliant work as always
