Thanks guys, subscribed
Hey there! I am unsure whether this would break Dakka's T +C!
What I can recommend you to do however is to go to our facebook page: some where within the images is a break down of what our three mainstream quality levels are, how they are different and also how much they cost!
Sorry about that! Dakka Dakka are kind enough to let us post here, so we wouldn't want to offend. But also feel free to message via facebook and we can give you a quick run down of the prices, we don't bite and there is no obligation what so ever!
Thanks everyone for the kind words, and now to go along with the wolfie images we have:
Every one who's subbed: thank you very much! It means alot, and please me sure to check back with comments regularaly we love to hear what you think!
What I have found for those interested in commissions is a youtube vid that highlights our three main levels. We do have a display quality which we determine on a client basis depending on requirements!
Massive update guys! Last one for the night as well. Seeing as the Space Wolves proved such a success on here, I have some (unofficial) images of other Wolves the studio is pumping out, as usual there will be official images as well as perhaps a little summary video. Enjoy!

Thanks alot! Definitely keep us in mind, we've had US clients before and are happy to again! You can get in touch with me in the UK from the email on the first page, or go straight to the studio in Thailand via the email on the images!
Be sure to comment on our pics in the future, helps keep the morale up!
The studio is super busy atm! So much so the Nuke Team is growing (again!) So we'd like to say a big thank you to any one whose given us support, comments, exposure and business!
We just want to give a shout out to our friends out there at voxnet radio!

great painting, great OSL and great stuff!
Thank's alot Geordie09! We aim to please, and really appreciate you coming and posting a comment!
Two of the main techniques we use here at Nuke Arts studios is weathering and washing, this image is before this has taken place. So stay tuned for the final product (We thought it would be cool to show a before and after!)
Any one know if there's a problem with Image Shack atm? All my links seem to have broken suddenly, despite working for days!
Edit: Problem seems to have fixed itself! One of the things we get asked alot here at Nuke Arts is how we take our pictures, in the best possible way to show off our work. Soon we will put up a tutorial to show you guys!
Don't be shy guys, we're getting hundreds of new views but no comments!

Also your works look amazing, keep it up!
Thank you!
Using thinned down glazes over the area you want the glow to appear would also work, as a glaze slightly tints the colour of the area it applies. However, I do not know whether this would look as good or be as easy to do: an airbrush glow effect is a pretty simple technique!

Ah I asked 'cuz I've got no access to an airbrush and don't have the money to get one any time soon. I'll try the glaze technique, thanks!

Hey no worries! Not every one has access to an airbrush, but it doesn't mean you can't have super cool glows. If you have a gw near you I recommend going there: one I was in recently had a staff member showing how to use the new glazes to do a cool glow effect. Good luck and let me know how it works out!
Hey guys!
Every now and again the owner, Nuke as we call him, likes to share a great lil tip on the facebook page. Thought I'd share today's with you, (mainly because I was playing against a friends nicely painted Necrons today an the tip covers Necrons!)
"Here's some quick ideas on how you can spice up your necron army:
1. Keep the glow low, and detail high. Necrons are full of crevises and engravings, make sure you shade these or make them glow.
2. It also helps to visualize the materials before you paint - which part is made of what type of material... This way you can retain the consistency when applying your color scheme to different units like flyer, triach stalker, barges and etc
3. Add weatheing. Rust and grime are the basic ideas. If you feel like adding more, well, try dust or chipping. Stay tuned for more articles on these techniques.
Just a quick note:
Rust - use pigment or dark flesh+orange wash around the joints
Grime - devland mud, all the way. Or whatever GW replaced that with.
Chipping - check out my channel for an old sponge chipping tutorial... Time to make a new one soon really...
Dust - wash with graveyard earth around the legs / joints
4. Basing: I love contrasting the base's color to the model's. But sometimes when you want to emphasize on a specific color, go for it. Dull other colors so your dominant color can glow and attract as much attention you want it to without being distracted by oter colors. For example, if you wanna show off your glow, then try not to have more than one or two super bright colors on the same model, or the glow will lose its effect. "
