Still no tutorial on the jump pack exhaust?

I have a question: how did you achieve such saturated red on the very first pic in this thread (rhino)? It looks simply stunning

Amazing work!

@ Sub-Zero - haha sorry man I've been busy and I've been trying to finish up some vehicles for a game this weekend .. I promise I'll have one for you by next week. 8)

@ Anakonda - I fade my vehicles using an aribrush and usually do run a lot of fade blends. I use Comm Art colors, their Trans Red is awesome and very vibrant. 8)

@ Thortek - Thanks! Glad you like it ...

I love the Blood Angels, I read your guide on how to do red and did the best I could to execute it.

Your a true gentleman for posting that. It was much appreciated.

On another note, your work is stunning

Also, what do you use as a sealer? I love the semi gloss look of it on your Angels.

haha thanks .. hope it helps .. it just takes some time and you'll get it down.

I use my airbrush to clear them now. Typically it's Liquitex and they have Gloss down through to matte.. I usually hit it with gloss for protection then spray it with matte to bring down the shine.

Glad you like them .. 8)

I hope that helps .. it's quick but gives the steps I use to paint them.

Nice work, lots of good stuff here. How long did it take you to get all of these guys done up?

You know, I'm not a huge blood angels fan but you sir, have captured the paint scheme beautifully! Well done.

Thank you soooo much! I'll be putting this technique to use in the very near future.

I like the way you do your boltguns, they look like worn metal. What's your process for that?

I hate space marines.
With that said, your painting ability, makes me WANT space marines.
Your stuff is Ill dawg.

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

I like the Purple Eldar great shading .

Wow! Great stuff. I love the dark fade on all your blood angels. Really brilliant stuff.

Brilliant!

@ Adrian - Thanks glad you like them. Do you mean how long does it take me to paint one? I don't know for all of them 8) .. But depending on the quality I'm going for usually 2 to 6 hours I suppose. Vehicles probably 8 +

@ Pnyxpresss - Thanks .. I was looking for a CC army and wanted them to have a gritty look, A tarnished version of their former glory ..

@ Sub Zero - Cool, NP hope it helps 8)

@ LutherMax - For the stand black bolters I base it with black and then drybrush bolt gun over it. For the gold I'll start with bronze and then blend gold in.

@ Basimpo - Haha thanks .. I've always been an Eldar player but wanted a good CC army to mix it up.

@ Alfonso - Thanks .. I wanted them to look more stealthy .. so whe nwith the purple ..

@ Iandroid - Thanks .. I didn't want the Xtreme Highlights so when with Xtreme Shadows .. keeps the reds red and not orange 8)

@Reality - Thanks !!

Finished up my DC Squad, I wrapped up the final two squad members last night. I realized after I had put my airbrush away that some still have a bit more sheen then I'd like. I'll have to go back and hit them with matte. But otherwise all done up..

I love the pathfinder, really nice scheme and well painted.

Thanks 8) Just ordered the kneeling Pathfinder so he'll be the next guy added to the squad.

Looks great! Really nice work all around, but I think I like the Dusk Wolves the best. That DW Contemptor is fantastic!

Awesome work, everything looks great. Especially like your DC squad, fantastic look.

Great work. And I think the name "Dusk Wolves" is all kinds of awesome

@ Gutsplitta - Thanks man .. glad you are liking them. It's an awesome model .. and was fun to paint fore sure

@ Turock - Thanks, I'm glad to have them all finished up 8)

@ Calliginous - Nice, glad you are digging them .. I thought it sound pretty cool and was a good mix of the legions combination.. thanks!

Here's a couple of finished BA.. the two I had in the Jump Pack Tut..

Last night I finished up the Space Hulk Brood Lord I've been working on .. pretty happy with his outcome 8) He'll be used as an NPC in a Kill Team game coming up soon ..

Been a bit since I posted something new .. been busy with house remodeling .. I entered a few things in Games Day Chicago this year and even though I ran out of time on the Diorama it made it to the final round which is nice .. there are a few things that I would have liked to put more time into but I think it looks good .. Here's the finished up Pathfinder Diorama .. I wanted him to be blended into his background other then his armour and helm popping out ..






I've also posted up some Games Day Pics and info on my site if interested ..

Well done in the final buddy. It's great to see you posting over here as well. I'm gonna be painting up some more of my WE tomorrow and I'm gonna give your method a try as it seems a lot quicker than my own. For a similar (better ) effect. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next

Hey man, really like what your doing here. Nice biker.

@ Bio - Hey man .. yeah I've been swamped with house work and getting ready for our second kid .. so I haven't had a lot of spare time. Eldar are my first army so no post over at BnC haha .. I've been meaning to log in and check out how your Titan is coming along 8) .. I was hoping to actually have a scene with a BA Biker and a Daemon Prince but with my time getting majorly cut back it was a no go haha ... Thanks man .. I'll like to see your take on it ..

@ Iron Father - Thanks .. glad you like him. I have a few more I need to get done .. sometime .. in the future it seems haha ..

It's been awhile .. family time taking over .. 8) But I knocked out a squad of scouts real quick. Not that happy with the shoulder icons but don't feel like going back to change them at the moment haha.. Still need to be cleared and might put some powders in them to dull the guns down a bit. Not sure at present though 8)

I started working on some Dark Angels to mix it up.. I'm going to put together a small DA force. With my time being limited the rank and file will be table quality. Thankfully I can rock these out pretty quick..
