A small town at the foothills of the beautiful Cascade Mountains

Somewhere I think I saw a Falcon cockpit that was painted black, then the pilot was just highlighted light green to appear "matrix-like" / glowing.  I think this might be an easy way to finish my cockpit since I hate wasting time on something under the canopy.

Am I just imagining, or have others seen that?  Any pictures?  Thanks - Mez

It was in a White Dwarf, no clue what one, or on the GW site. I have seen it as well, not very complex so go for it.

I have done my eldar vehicle cockpits in this manner, and it was super easy. Paint a nice even layer of chaos black over the whole cocpit, then go in with a nice heavy (but even) drybrush of snot green over the pilot and edges of the cockpit. Then, once that dries, hit it with a lighter drybrush of scorpion green. That's all I did really, and it came out looking real nice IMO. Put the canopy on over it, and it looks damn swank.

No pictures of my wave serpent, sorry for that. No camera that I can use to upload pictures at this juncture in time, but do what I just outlined and you should have some good success.

Best of luck Mezmaron, take it easy.

Dark Cockpit sounds like a goth-themed gay porno. Starring Randy Black, with music by "Glowing" Trevor Green.

No, I have nothing useful to add.

I am glad I am not the only one who had his mind in the gutter when seeing the name of this thread.

I blame Malfred.
