Or bronze!

the secondary colour is a dark twilight blue (same one as my admech lot use as their secondary colour) the laurel leaves....I havent decided on yet whether to do them silhouette or actually coloured.....the freehand stuff is a wee bit away yet though. still got a lot of marble to do!! firstbatch of marble is done now and blocking the metal trim and blue bits now in black base coat

And we're getting there

Looks great, good to see someone else to do a Baron model! Love it!

Cheers man - those blue stripes were a pain in the ass to get straight on the up side. He'll be a Freeblade but has kept his old Baron stripes.

Enough painting for the night. Got a ton of brushes to clean before I call it a night

Wife's away today so got a ton of work done. First batch of armour panels are nearly sorted. Metals just need their top brass layer and the blue stripes need some highlighting. Did the superstructure struts in grey to break up all that endless metal a bit. Getting there

Gorgeous work on those armour plates for the Knight, it is coming together wonderfully.

Thx very much. Really chuffed with how he's coming along. Time for some weaponage next

Looking amazing. Will be an astounding centrepiece once fully assembled.

Dammit jan by the next month you'll have me saying chuffed. Good progress!

Hahahaha - Tidy stuff!!!

That is very beautiful. The faux marble look has always been something I've wanted to be able to paint.

Takes a bit of doing and research beforehand but defintely doable and worth it in the end. I probbaly should have picked a slightly smaller fig to try it out on for the first time than a knight but there we go

Nonsense... we all know this is just a practice run for a Warlord Titan....

haahaha - nah..........well...... might eventually, someday, maybe get a titan but I'll be the Chaos Warhound if/when I do. Gorgeous beast that it is.

Our boy got a gun! Clipped him altogether to see how he's looking. So chuffed. Gonna take a wee break on 'Orphan's Wrath' for a few days. Need to try and get the haemonculus sorted and that. Anywho - here's where we're at. Hope y'like him

Beautiful.

So will there still be a full arm on that side? I read that as Oprah's Wrath. My god................

Oh - there'll be full arms on both sides. All weapon's are mag'd so there'll be lots of shootyshooty and sliceydicey to come. I got the shoulders done, just need to get busy on the attachments. For now he'll just have to make do with that wee flamer!!
'Oprah's Wrath' .....bwhahahahhahaaa

Flamer? That's a meltagun! XD

Even at this stage, that's one of the most impressive and regal Knights I've ever seen! The finished product should look spectacular.

@ Kepora - Ooops

@ Pekel - Thank you very much. Means a lot Put a ton of planning design and try ing out some new techniques on this beast so really glad that it's working out like I imagined it. Taking my time with him so hopefully he should look pretty cracking when he's (eventually!) all done........I hope - lol

Yeah that Knight is one of the best I've seen.

Well done.

D

Sublime!

Sound folks - cheers

Definitely one of the best paint schemes I've ever seen on a knight, beautiful, beautiful work.

Thx so much hk1x1. Kind kind words. I siad before but it's no less true - really means a lot. Dead happy folk are liking him. I'm really chuffed but that's just me. Great that other folk are digging the big fella too

Problem is, how are you going to move forward and top him?

hahaha - well got a load of FW like the Thanatar Siege Automata adn some other stuff arriving Christmas time

Personally I think you should do a Snotling giving the middle finger and position it just in front of the Knights left foot.....
