Hi, I just wanted to share with you some of my work, so this probably a right place to do so. I paint Heresy armies, Eldar and Orks, so expect photos of those

some artillery pieces



that would be it for today, still lots of stuff that I need to take photo of

I think you've overdone the chipping effects on your big tanks and the dread, but the rest look pretty good.

Pretty nice stuff!

Yes, the dread looks a bit too shiney and bright for such bad chipping. Like he just rolled off the factory floor and someone went at him with a cheesegrater!

Thanks for the photos.

thanks for the input!

yeah, the Dread did not come as nice as I wanted him to be, I´m quite satified with weathering on my other tanks though, but I realize some people just dont like too much weathering - me, on other hand, like my tanks dirty and gritty

When weathering, focus on high-traffic areas, places that would receive mud and dust, scrape against stuff, and the crew would frequently grab/walk on. The flat sides of the Malcador, for example, wouldn't get as much wear as handles, hinges, and the leading edges of the tread assemblies.

Great work, very cool.

I try to do that, to an extent, placing more weathering on exposed areas like handles and around the tracks. Scratches on flat sides of the tank may be caused by deflected and direct bullet hits, close combat weapons scratching the surface, debris flying from explosions, vehicle moving through difficult terrain like walls and buildings and extreme weather like hurricanes and tornadoes throwing rocks at high speed agains them.

My Heresy army is built around Istvaan III campaign, so idea was to make it look like it had spend few weeks/months on post virus bombing planet, with its firestorms, hurricanes and scorched cityscape full of obstacles and devious loyalist traps
