<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "A Different Take on Rough Riders <PICS>"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page "]]> JForum - http://www.jforum.net A Different Take on Rough Riders <PICS> FLGS and came a across an interesting model, The Empire Engineer on Mechanical Steed. My first thought when I saw this was a really neat Rough Rider, so i bought it, used some leftover bits and hopefully have a great model for which to base the rest of my squad off of.

Really Like to hear what you guys think of seeing a unit of these guys on the table!

Probably a few light washes, just to get more of the small metal bits to show up.

And I should probably do some minor touch ups on the face to (pun not intended) "flesh" him out.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/652858.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/652858.page GMT A Different Take on Rough Riders <PICS> ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/653183.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/653183.page GMT A Different Take on Rough Riders <PICS>

I plan on painting the face as soon as I can learn how to paint eyes reliably, its pretty hit and miss right now, any good threads or Tutorials on it?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/653929.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/653929.page GMT A Different Take on Rough Riders <PICS>

Not that it matters who posted it first but... in your link is an undead horse lol.

Painting eyes there are a few ways, the way most people like seem to be this one:

a) paint on black on the eye ridge crevices , use fine brush or a pin to dot on the white paints on both ends of the black line.

b) paint a white line within the black line , and clean up the rest with dark shades and blend into the normal face color.

( im bad at explaning maybe i can make a pic for it )]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/653947.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/653947.page GMT A Different Take on Rough Riders <PICS>

Zoom in on the eyes on this space wolf scout, if you think that they're any good I'd be more than happy give you some tips. PM me if you like.


i do have one comment regarding eye detail,
watch how big you paint the eyes, many people paint over the eyelids as the eyeballs and it makes the mini look like they have eyes that are disproportioned to the rest of the head. if you look closely at some of the golden-demon quality work like this

you can see that the lower eyelid on this model is larger than the visible eyeball itself]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/655651.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/235645/655651.page GMT
