Gabriel seth kitbash



One of my finished tac squad... i couldnt get a good shot with them all in im afraid.. the tech is week in this 1!!



One of my Sang guard, unfinished, going to have a more sinister dark colour. going to be more fierce and barbaric than most being a flesh tearer!! wings will be black, and went for a verdigra (sp??) effect on the armour



And thats mr angry, my libby dread.. he has rather a large sword...





I know these pics are a bit shody but best i can do... they really dont show enough of the detail and highlights... but unless anyone wants to come down to sunny prestatyn and give me a lesson in photography and show me how its done?... no?... fair enough lol

Cheers

Liam

the dreads sword is a bit big,but hey,the bigger the better.

the paint on the sanguinary guard looks a bit thick,could be the pic thou.and if you thin down the turquoi it would look better i think.

I second HamHam's comment on the think paint. Overall that's my only critique.... thin those paints and I'll like these even more.

Cheers and good work! Keep posting in this thread with updates..

Will you share where you learned to make those great bases? I'm planning on doing a similar style with my Imperial Fist army and I'd like to know how to did it.

Thanks!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1842284.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1842284.page GMT WIP flesh tearers http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1842302.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1842302.page GMT WIP flesh tearers lol.. Im a terrible photographer im afraid and the pics dont do the models justice... i promise i do thin my paints

I will do a little tutorial on the bases, if you want a picture tut ill do one??

As for the bases, they are really easy to do, i used;

- balsa wood
- ready mixed filler
- course sand ( stuff from the beach by the rocks is fine! )
- etched brass razorwire

- stick the balsa to your bases in a haphazard trench sort of way.
- Use filler to edge up and over some of the wood pieces
- super glue some coils of wire onto the bases (or sink it into filler)
- when dry, sand the filler down, make sure it doesnt overlap onto the rim of the base (sands away easily)
- coat of p.v.a and sand
- bobs your uncle!!

I can give you a run down of the paints i used if you want?

cheers for the interest and comments.. i have taken the paint thickness problem in mind... in RL they look great, but im a bit worried now lol, so more painting for me! I will paint some more this week and see if the results change!!!

Cheers guys!!

- black primer
- calthan brown base
- codex grey heavily drybrushed over
- patches of camo green to represent moss drybrused on
- A final dusting with rotting flesh
- this was then washed with a mix of badab black and devlan mud.. DM 2 : BB 1 ratio

- wood areas were base coated the same
- Dry brushed with snakebite
- Slight drybrush of camo
- rotting flesh final highlight
- same wash

I will upload my finished chaplain and WIP rhino tomorrow!

Heres my WIP rhino... its been a bloody pain painting the flesh tearer symbol! the second shot has the dozer blade im working on shown.. this tank will be heavily weatherd and battered, but does the yellow look to much with the red? it will be alot murkier/darker red after ive treated it lol





The paint looks very thick once again on the dozer blade.. but i assure you i gave it several very thin coats.. its just my damn iphones camera is a bit poo...

C+C please

thanks for looking

-You chose a good color yellow for the dozer. At least form the picture its more golden and less sunburst which stick to theme of the army; dark. I agree with you, when shaded properly and the right amount of weathering and damage should make it look real nice. I would say keep it and start the weathering to see how it looks....im sure it will turn out great.

Also wanted to comment on your flesh tearer sawblades on the tank....they look fantastic....you army is coming along quick and looking real nice. I wish i could paint quickly and get the results your getting....everything looks good for how fast your updating this WIP blog!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1854029.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1854029.page GMT WIP flesh tearers http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1854436.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/311527/1854436.page GMT WIP flesh tearers

the whole tac squad finished (apart from weathering and damage.. so i guess not finished lol), with rhino (still wip)



Work on my armies leader, a bog standard libby with jump pack, only had basecoat and needs highlighting



A group shot of my sang guard, all got basecoat now.. just need to detail them, still very scrappy



A group shot of what i need to paint :(



Some WIP kit bash chars, dante and corbulo... yes that is an oversized chalice lol





Well... there you go! Still alot to do! but the list is doing well! after 7 games, 7 wins!!!

And do people really want a proper tut on my bases? I didnt think my stuff would be worthy of a proper tut lol!!

Thanks for all your great comments! your pushing me along!!

Its still got a long way to go, what do you think so far? it needs greenstuff and more work on the chainsword.. and im not at all happy with the head, i ideally want the chaos lord termie bare head, any suggestions?

Also i need to define the blades on his shoulder pad a bit more, file them flush with the blue lines and tidy them up.
