So I did those Grey Knights as a gift to a friend, and I'm far from satisfied with them. I'm posting them here to get some advices from the community.

I don't need specific GK advices since I don't play them and don't plan on painting them again soon, but more general advices, techniques, tutorials, etc. What would be the next step I should work upon ? I know there is alot of them, but what would be most important ?

PS: I'm a brush guy. I don't use airbrush and don't plan to do it soon.



You can see more picture at my amateur blog here : http://thoseonceloyal40k.blogspot.ca/2014/05/grey-knights-finished.html You will also find much better painter than me on the blog if you look at it.

For information, I decided to use a white primer to have a clearer and more pale silver. Seems like it didn't work out well. I would use black if I had to do it again. Also, the piece of cloth on the ''sergeant'' is a failure. It seems like no work was done, yet I did 3 color layer + 2 wash and drybrushes. I just don't know why it didn't work out. BTW they are all magnetized.

Thank you very much !]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6803225.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6803225.page GMT
You may want to lower down on the darkness of the red on the storm bolters, just to give some good contrast.

The eyes look a bit odd due to the fact that they radiate onto the mask. Perhaps a white or light blue highlight could make them look a bit better.

For the sergeant you may want to consider having the cloth red and just shading it. Having it whiteish kinda confuses the eye.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6803363.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6803363.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6803515.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6803515.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6804003.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6804003.page GMT GK that uses white cloth !

@Peebs : I just typed ''Grey Knights'' in google and made a general rendering of what I saw.

This one in particular : http://www.bigbosspainting.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Pictures/Products/Grey%20Knights/GK_GreyKnights_I.jpg

Of course I wanted to do some modification (like the red guns).

Thanks everyone, great advice.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6804272.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/593856/6804272.page GMT
