Well this is going to be a slow project as I am working and studying at the same time. Anyhow, here is one almost completed Grey Knight purifier. What I am not done with yet is the base. I have order bases from dragonforge, and have for the moment placed my purifier on a base I use for my elysians.



Just remembered... I forgot to take photo from the left side. But the only thing there of note is the heraldry on the shoulder pad. Nothing fancy really.

Whoa.....

I really like how you painted you white.

Good Job.

Looks great.

the white looks nice and smooth

Easy trick really.

1. Spray white
2. Mix matt varnish (I am after the low viscosity) with GWs gryphon sepia.
3. Apply mix to white areas
4. Mix water and skull white. Make sure its transparent. Apply to white areas (this could be the tricky part though).

Now thats all
Step 3 has a similar effect as "dipping" but without all the mess.

Love it keep it up !

The theme really reminds me of the Protectorate of Menoth army from Warmachine, really nice!

Great paint job. The whites look nice and warm.

Thanks.

I really like the skulls on the base.
Where do these derive from?

GWs WH40k Basing kit

Thank you man.

Wow nice paint skeme well done!

Thanks mate!

Nice Really like the white!

Nice work on the white. Kicks my White Knights' collective asses for sure. Your detail work is also much better than mine.

Props for great models, there are too many GKs on Dakka that are just Boltgun metal sprayed and left to be done.

I was thinking of doing silver/grey knights. But it feels like everyone is going to do silver/grey knights (as they should be of course).
So I went for White, my old color scheme.
As long as people will see that they are GKs I am happy.

I really like the scheme. A lot of people are commenting on the white (understandably so, it looks great!), but I think what really brings that out is the way the muted red compliments it. Great work and I'd love to see more. If at all possible I'd like to see the heraldry on the left side too.

^ This right here, I love the super matte red, it's something you don't see very often and your proportions of red:white are very well done. Nice job man, can't wait to see more.

Well I'll get some photos up tomorow then.
And I'll see when I can paint some more. Studies must go first haha...

Vash wrote:Studies must go first haha...

Ah yes, I understand how that goes.

Great job, I like the colors you chose.

hehe...I just finished my homework =) Very nice! Excellent painting, and I think the color scheme is very refreshing.

OT; my grey knights will be silver.

Thanks again.
I wanted to go for a catholic church theme. Inquisition had red, so I went for that. But red is only my minor color. Took white as main due to the fact that people refers the church with white (or black).

But then again... perhaps people don't really look into as much as I do

Very nice, it's a great break from the monotony that is silver/boltgun grey knights.

Thanks.
Feels good that so many like them. I'll try to paint some more today since its such a nice weather out side.
But first I need to go with the wife and meet some friends. Hopefully back in time for some painting.

I've been waiting to see the "My grey knights aren't grey" armies.. and finally this one is actually quite well done! Props!

Love the lowlighting on the armor, and thanks for the mini-tutorial, always appretiated!

Once I get a hang of how to paint the models right I'll try to add some more details. Heraldry on the legs and such.
I hope some one will have use of the mini tutorial I gave.

Looks amazing! I may use that trick for the heads of my Purifiers. So I'm contemplating painting mine up to be non-metallic as well, but going with a "shades of grey" color scheme. I'll be sure to up pictures as I go

Keep up the good work!

I think that actually looks more attractive than the silver grey knights which have a tendency to look like unpainted metals, even when they are the plastic ones!

Good job, very attractive.
