Wow. That cape, man. Beautiful.

Clearly some of your finest brush work. The ornamentation on the cloak are amazing, and the face is impeccable. The purple and red compliment the gold just beautifully. I know it's been a lot of effort Damo, but I think it was well worth it. You nailed it.

Wow, that's pretty damn nice.

Yeah, just to echo sentiments, the cape is outstanding. Like the corpses now, too

AWESOME

OK just amazing etc. If we could vote on them 10's would not cover it. You should be proud dude, absolutely stunning.

This is the third lot of brushes I have burned because of you, quit will you. Can't you go paint something terribly please.

Thank you so much everyone :-) I really do like him myself and it seems he's VERY well received! I will go and pop them on Dakka now, you'll have to jump over to my gallery and check him out to vote (if you want to?) as I've only a short time tonight (and I can't remember how to link them from the pics again ) *yeah facepalm* :-)

thanks again, tomorrow will see the finish of the Kans! yes THE KANS!

* Whalemusic fixed the pics so you can now click and vote if that's your desire!* (he's a bloody legend!)

Damn Damo, your skills seem to slowly improve everyone you paint something. I can't say anything that hasn't been said, it looks just fantabulous. I really like that hue you did on his sword, its a simple thing but really adds to it. And his face is just perfect.


And by Kans I'm hoping bewbs...... but I'll probably be disappointed

Amazing!

The gem on the chest really worked out - breaks up that mass of gold really nicely.

Cape worked out too - brilliant freehand btw

Thank you, thank you thank you again :-) I've chucked the pics up in my gallery! and KC you're gonna be disappointed about the Kans bro! unless....... I take a good selfie of my moobs?

Absolutely beautiful Damo..really!

Perfection for Mr. Perfect

The gem on the Laer sword looks transparent

Well done my friend

My eyes !!!

Its so beautiful its burning my eyes !

Great job Damo !
I think that he looks even better than the previous one. Angron looked good, but Fulgrim beats him hands off.

I like his sword, you used similar colors as I use on my DE army. Is it a coincidence ? Anyway, it looks real good.
Your gold has a strong contrast, it gives a nice depth to the model (is this correct in english too ? ^^).


The only thing that I dislike is the grey trim of the base. Why not black ? Would be more classy.

I wasn't feeling 100% for the last couple of days and thought i'd give brushes a rest today but then i realised I had forgotten to take some tablets for 2 days! Duh! chucked down a couple and feel a bit better so thought i'd try and finish the Kans! and I did

these were challenging to me because I wanted to make them very industrial and dirty, and i'm not used to that kind of thing. I hope they look o.k and not too messy? once gits bases them I think they'll be better but overall I like them together and on the table surrounded by boys they'll be killing stuff before we know it!

I now introduce you to Krush, Klaw & Killy

Nice kans.

Nah they're not too messy, just right for Orks.

Brilliant work. I think you got the industrial look spot on. That engine glow makes me go "WOW" every time I see it. Got to try it sometime.

mate, you've excelled yourself with both of these.

Fulgrim - just love it. the face is excellent. tones, shades everything. the gold is a really nice rich colour as are the reds! outstanding.

Kans - fantastic. love the glowing grill on the back. they look perfectly demented.

Fantastic work Damo!

Look like they've been around the block a few times, works well for ork things.

Think you've nailed the aesthetic just right Damo. I'd planned on spending quality time with my orks after Adepticon, these fine machines will fit right in with the rest of the boyz!

Lol Oh you guys! well, banter aside i'm glad they're looking good! i'll do my best to get them to master gitsplitta soon so they can stand next to the DeffDread and do what they Kan to kill things!

and thanks again for all the positivity guys! I'm feeling a great sense of relief and achievement getting the Fulgrim model and the Kans finished, I'm going to work on my counts as dante now and then do some bare heads (12) for BigH then I have a new project from Whaley to work on but I'll wait and start it before I post it up but I think it'll be cool!

I better go and paint so I can update again!

Don't forget your own stuff, we like seeing that too!

You mean like a finished counts as Dante!?

well, it just so happens i have one that i just finished about 10 minutes ago! i've been on a good roll this week so far, this guy (yet to be named c'mon people?) is pretty cool, I like the subtle difference to the gold armour as it's a bit darker and not as gold as the sang guard and his face suits the whole nature of my Flesh eaters the axe was pretty much my first real attempt at trying a power weapon effect, I think it looks good and now I'm confident I can use other colours to achieve the same effect on a slightly negative note there are some areas I'm not thrilled with when it came to the casting of this model, it's genuine Finecast and had a few muddy details but he's for my own tabletop force so no biggie!

love to know if you feel he looks enough like the master/captain of a chapter shunned by their brother marines trying to claw their reputation back from an abyss of bloodshed and hearsay by enacting brutal and swift assaults on the enemies of a stagnant Imperium?










Lets see what tomorrow brings?....... probably not much

You absolutely nailed that one Damo , beautiful !

Gold armour is frisking awesome , and might have persuaded me that metallics ARE worth using !

Face tones are really well done !

Nerdy, that looks great. the face is grim as ..well.. very grim.

love the reds (as always) and purple as a choice for the power weapon has worked out really well.

Nice NMM techniques on the gold. I'll have to learn to do that some day. Face is stellar as usual. Glow on the pistol is a nice touch. All-round... a first class effort! Did we expect anything less??

Absolutely brilliant fulgrim! Love the gold and the purple is a really nice tone!
And Commander dante is looking stylish too, nice work!

Looks golden! Power weapon came out nice, and I like that he doesnt look like a sang guard. Always thought it was a bit strange to have Dante and Sanguninor both in the golden nipple armor.

Love the glow on the killer kan's back, and the jetpack is very well done!
