KB - that DW is looking sweet. Really nice work. Keep looking at some of those 54's over on ebay and thinking about picking a few up. They had some really gorgeous figs in that range

Welp, I didn't know if I would have time to put out a quality piece, but turns out, I do! It is now an all out assault on the enemies of man. Glory be to the Adeptus Astartes.

If you are very desperate, you can use a cardboard box and dustmask (the ones that look like doctor's masks) and rubber gloves. The masks and gloves you can get from pharmacies, and unless your smoke alarm is severely oversensitive you should be fine. Just open the window wide and you'll be fine.

Oh? Thats desperation? Thats just kind of my standard way of priming 0.o What would be the proper method? Spray booth with ventilation and epic lighting?

HAha, that's what I've been doing since I arrived at university, before that I sprayed out the back of my parent's house.You're suposed to do it in well ventilated areas, not a 6ft by 6ft bedroom.

Take my advice; don't do this. I primed indoors one time and my whole apartment smelled like spraypaint for several days.

Finally, my entry is done! The bases have dried over night and the last blood effects are about there. They are... quite gory, what with mutated limbs etc.

I will post pictures when I get home from work.

Thanks a lot! I'm glad you like them

The fire effect is a 4 step process:

- Airbrush Vallejo Air "Sick green" on the area where the flame is. This is also the "hue" color on where you want the OSL to happen, such as the side of the face etc.
- Airbrush Vallejo Air "Moon Yellow" lightly on the middle of the flame, to give it some more brightness.
- Wash the flame itself (not the surrounding areas) with GWs "Biel-Tan green" wash
- Lastly drybrush the washed area with GWs "Yriel Yellow".

Et voĆ­la! Ironically they are mostly yellow instead of green - But that's what gives it such a cool and eerie effect

Getting close on my entry.


The last major thing to do is the cape. I painted him in two halves, but wanted to glue him together before I did the cape so the folds on the shoulders matched. That and the base and I should be done. Plus all the random touch ups I notice.
