Now that we know Hathor Maat is dead I'll have to make up some new lore for who he is though.

I feel like the lower flame could use some highlighting on the ridges of the yellow parts.

>>54317237
What would you hit it with?

>>54317177
THIN

>>54317243
The same yellow colour with a bit of white added in might do it. I rarely have occasion to paint flames so this is just my general approach to highlighting.

So I'm finally getting around to orkifying a baneblade I rescued off ebay, the thing looks like it was put together by a blind 12 year old, including about $50 worth of super glue. Speaking of which, I just threw it into the freezer, I'm thinking overnight should be enough but there is a ton of glue, anyone know how long I should leave it in for?

But anon, how else will you see the painstaking detail Guardfags have put into their armies?

That Trygon poster literally put flat orange on top of flat blue after base-coating, washing and then puting a single tier highlight on the bare minumin of the model and not bothering to clear up any blotches of orange he got on the wrong parts of model — you absolutely need 11,000,000 pixels to see this.

Asking once again for a new thread:

Best 3rd party bitz vendors in terms of sculpt quality?

I recently bought some 3rd party bitz for my army, and I'm finding the sculpt quality somewhat... Lacking. Perhaps I'm just spoiled in that my chosen army is mostly made up of fairly recent GW sculpts, and I for sure should've looked a little closer at the bits before buying, but all the same, what are some good vendors in terms of being as good as/better than GW's sculpts?

Come on, I know people say that Numarines are autistic and goofy, but that's taking it to the next level.

>>54318437
It's Vallejo game color magic blue and imperial blue done in 4 layers:
First pure Imperial, then a 4 to 1 imperial/magic mix, then a 1 to 1 mix and lastly pure magic blue.
Additional highlights are then made with a mix of magic blue and Baharroth blue as well as pure Baharroth blue where necessary.
Depending on the look I want I also sometimes lightly wash the first layer of imperial blue with Baal red.

>>54318604
Id say good solid yellow base is done. Now slap on some wash and highlight the fuckers while your at it.

>>54318604
touch your wrists together under the base of the miniature while grasping it with your fingers, also brace your arms on your table/arm rests and you might get some steadier hands.

Gnarly as fuck.

Looks like he'd bust out a skateboard and do some epic rails.
He has a semi "hang lose" thing going on with his hands too!

Tho I think you should highlight the orange edges, or maybe your highlight of them is too subtle.

>>54319219
Thanks I guess?

>>54317227
Yes it's nice, it fails on closer inspection tho, try running a glaze over it to reduce contrast.

>>54319508
I don't think he put a filter on that picture I think his camera is just shit.

>>54319372
Speaking of this guy, what does /tg/ think of his painting technique?

I normally take the approach of painting on an undercoat, then doing successive layers of increasingly bright colours. This guy does some layering, but his first set of layers is just the base coat with a wash, followed by the base coat without a wash on top... does this technique produce any tangible improvements over the first?

>>54319717
He's just there to get people painting. The basecoat+wash meme is cancer if you like the old style aesthetic, but you cannot argue that Citadel washes did help reduce the sea of grey that was fucking rampant in GW stores and in many official compos.

The washes are still too shiny, so I hate them.

>>54317227
Non-regular moving flames like that are really tough to paint convincingly. The color of the region of fire is related to a whole bunch of conditions. Getting a realistic coloration is really tough, but seem "off" immediately of they aren't done right. I'd say that's your biggest problem and why, like another poster has said, the top flame sorta looks like a runny piece of greasy pizza. I'd suggest looking at pictures of torches or bonfires and plan the colors out a bit more.

>>54319805
It's one of the extra starting survivor heads from Kingdom Death.
I got a fuckload of them from the first kickstarter.

I did such a shitty job with my first guardsman. Are there cheaper alternatives to the GW paints that are still good? I need more colors but the store is far away and the cost is pretty high.

>>54320030
>I need more colors
Just mix them

>>54320045

Well, what I really need is a tan-brown color. I don't really have anything close.

>>54320073
Can't you just order them online and wait

>>54320077

I wanted to source alternatives that are cheaper, also.

How do Vellajo and Army Painter washes compare to GW washes?

>>54320126
The Army Painter ones are really close to the previous GW ones (Babab Black and Devlan Mud for instance), and act much like the GW washes.

>>54320126
GW washes are fucking ass. You have to put stupid amounts of matte in them or you get a glossy finish just like inks.

you may be using too much of them then, because most of them dry really flat, with the exception of the gloss ones.

I use Agrax Earthshade and it's terribly shiny. Nuln oil is about the only one that doesn't.

>>54320259
Absolute rubbish, I've never had problems with GW washes and glazes going on glossy, are you using the gloss versions? I'm not sure why you wouldn't seal your miniatures afterwards anyway.

>>54320397
>I use Agrax Earthshade and it's terribly shiny. Nuln oil is about the only one that doesn't.
That's not my experience, but perhaps you had a bad batch?

>>54318329
Kromlech/bitsofwar is top-notch. Gotten both ork and human minis from them and I only want more.

Puppetswar is good, though the one large model I got from them (the orc warbus) had serious issues with warped parts and cracks.

Only time I ever had weird drying like that was from using a blow dryer on heavy washes. If that was the norm people would be making noise about it so I can only assume something has happened to your paints.

>Do i paint the model and then add basing stuff?
>Or do i put the basing texture on and THEN undercoat and paint?

It depends on what yer basing with.

I prefer to glue rocks/sand/gravel/slate/cork to the base before undercoating, then spray the whole model, then paint. Afterwards, if there needs to be static grass or grass clumps applied, glue them on when done or nearly done.

However, if you're using crackle paint or lazy mode flock, you can wait until most (or all) of the painting is finished before basing the model.

>>54317231
HOLD UP
HOLD UPPPPP
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT BACKPACK FROM

>>54320778
Maybe. My local GW sold me a terrible can of black spray that left pockmarks all over the model where the paint and varnish didn't seem to have mixed properly, and I shook the can for fucking ages.

>>54320752
> Rakarth flesh
> 50 /50 brown, and purple washes ( watered down heavily)

It's the same recipe you use on genestealer cultists, or dark eldar skin. I think it works well with blood angel successors as it looks somewhat vampiric.

It's important to mix the washes together and do it once. If you do it as two washes ( even thinned) it looks grubby.

Can I get some feedback on my dudes? Newly named the Phoenicians Resurgent thanks to Anon. They aren't pro-level, but I'm pleased. I've got 5 Intercessors that are about half way finished and 3 Inceptors need finished. Know No Fear arrives tomorrow so I can get more bodies on the table.

>>54321015

Looks pretty cool! Better than what I can do, at least.

But why do two of them have the red helmets?

>>54321015
This basically the Hawk Lords color scheme as well if you wanted that

>>54321080
There's actually 5 red helmets scattered amongst them to represent Squad Leaders and/or easily identify key characters in the legion.

>>54321087
The original idea was Emperor's Children Resurgent. A "what if" scenario for if Cawl actually used the Traitor Genes to make new legions. But plenty of anons have made mention of the fact that they resemble Hawk Lords, but I know little about them.

>>54321015
Too late now but red would not be my first choice for the helmets.

white, yellow, or gold would have been perfect.

Also something is wrong with your steel on bolters etc. it's all uneven and grainy.

Also don't wash your purple with what I'm guessing was sepia or brown wash. Use a black or purple wash, on purple paint.

other than that it's a solid as fuck colour combo. I'm suprised there aren't more loyalist purple and gold homebrews.

That's just part of the Exalted Sorcerer kit like most of the rest of the model is.
The exceptions are the disc (Tzaangor enlightened), head (Kingdom Death) and collar (green stuff).

>>54321015
>Phoenicians Resurgent

Should have been Phoenix: Resurgence with a blue and orange paintjob.

>>54321115
I think White would look awesome as well, but I want to keep that for the REALLY important guys. And I think the Red looks super cool, personally.

The bolters was a new paint that I've never used before, it feels a bit janky to use.

And again, I personally think it looks good with the sepia wash, but I can understand why some people wouldn't like it.

Appreciate the feedback regardless!

Dark Angels Primaris Marines. Opted for the 5th company colours over the 3rd I've done for my manlet marines because everyone with Dark Angels uses 3rd. Spent ages on them, probably too much time for how they've turned out. Really happy with them, but the time spent might have been a bit slow. I wanted a deeper almost black green to be the base of them, but I based a bit too light, but it's given them a kinda grungey grimdark look to them so I'm not unhappy with them.

Had fun with the transfers too. Did it on a whim for one of the bolters and it went on easier than I've had with other GW transfers so I went to town. Chainhead looks a bit dumb but it also adds to an otherwise undetailed helm so I dunno.

Fuck edge highlights.

I tried a few different painting techniques on my hive tyrant following Duncan's tyranid videos but am lost on how to do wings.

Suffered some major procrastination but got back to painting yesterday. I'm a little on the fence here now as I am not sure how I feel with the red shoulder plates and the violet cloth. I'm thinking maybe I can do something with the winged jumpack to tie it together, or maybe paint the banner violet with some gold and some red. Of course the other option is to paint the cloth a white to match the Nid skin.

I think your problem is assuming that Nid Skin is a thing.

They're insects. They have chitin, not skin.

The bits in the joints are stringy connective tissue of little use as a distinctive prize, and everything else is rigid, bony, and spiky.

>>54324918
Thanks, they really do.

Which is good because it defuses how strong they are in the current edition. When you can drop an entire platoon on them right up the enemy's ass, the quality of the model is a balm to the pounding he's about to recieve.

Prime black.

Waaagh flesh for base color.

Optional wash with agrax or biel-tan green.

Lighter shade of green (warboss or skarsnik) for lighter areas. Upper surfaces of arms and shoulders, tops of feet, ears and facial features.

Then veeeerry sparingly, use a bright green or even a fleshtone to do final highlights. Lips, eyebrows, tops of the nose and ears, etc. A smidge on the knuckles, biceps.

Goblin bodies are hard because they're small and poorly defined. Orks are easier with defined muscles and features that show you where to highlight.

I think your main issue is that your highlight shade is on almost their whole body, not the upper surfaces that light would fall on.

Course, they're fucking grots, you'd be excused for going base/wash/highlight and done.

Making decent progress on the Castigator, if I listen carefully enough, I can already hear the autistic screeching of FW-is-pay-to-win-fags being carried on the wind. I will bathe in the salty brine of the tears of my pennieless, neck-beard, enemies with their hordes of unpainted push fit chaos marines.

All I need now is about 200 conscripts for ground support.

keep it up anon. I asked how you where doing in the previous thread but I guess you were offline

>>54316946
Too lazy to gap fill.
Too lazy to do two thin coats.
Too lazy to highlight.

>>54322997
Wew lad, I use a dremel for drilling bolter barrels. Not enough control my ass. I engrave with it too.

>>54318614
Skinny. Miley tongue.
No thank you. I'll stick with my hand.

>>54317008
well painted but it's a bad colour scheme IMO

Be great for a rusty trombone anon.

Has anyone put together a Lord of Change / Greater Deamon of Tzeench (not Kairos )? I cant get the neck to seal at the top / where the feathers are, but its perfect everywhere else. Any ideas?

>>54322782
Get an airbrush. Almost no chance of it being a regret purchase.

>>54326373
its supposed to be there.

>>54326373
It's supposed to be like that. You asked this before.

>>54326451
idk what this means

>>54326416

>>54326477

A dremel is a bit too powerful. I had the 300 model and I could only use it at minimum speed. For modelling is way better to use a manicure machine like pic related.

>>54325440
looks good

>>54316981
Looks good, quite original.
Something seems wrong about the light blue in this, but I can't tell.
Base looks good now.

>>54326665
>Something seems wrong about the light blue
looks like it could have done with another thin layer to brighten it up a bit, also needs shading in the recesses of the plates, that's my guess anyway

>>54326369
Shit, don't say that. He'll try and copyright it.

>>54321015
The Red helmets look weird, the 'wood' grip for the bolters looks strange and the plasma coil for the hellblaster looks wrong.

>>54321015
The Red helmets look weird, the 'wood' grip for the bolters looks strange and the plasma coil for the hellblaster looks wrong, too dull and the red edging looks strange.

That tank looks really good. Looking forward to seeing it painted!

>>54326901
Same, by the Plaguefather same!

Shepard Commander, we have obtained a new platform.

>>54327081
Pretty terrible. Huge moldline on the gun, pauldron on the right arm isn't on properly, the paint seems uneven in places where your attempts at edge highlighting went poorly. Exposed white on the purity seals on the left leg. Drill your barrels. Lot of the model still needs edge highlights, chainblade looks unfinished as does the storm bolter. The white needs more layers and not to be washed except in the recess onlyGo over all the dark grey areas again since there is so much lighter grey over it. The joints and pistons of the armor need coloring as do the metal bits on the helmet. Looks like there is a moldline on the knuckles of the chainfist arm

Whelp

Back into the simple green poor Neahn goes...

>>54326373
It is supposed to be like that, do not worry and just go ahead and build it.

>>54326690
No, I think its the contrast to the environment.
Light blue (or ice blue) is a cold colour, with contrasts with the terrain you based them on and the other warm colours I think.
Needs something to make it more subtle I think.
I dunno really

>I'll just leave her in there and go to bed

>>54327855
I'm reminded of that Oglaf spider comic.

>>54323484
No, what you must do is this.
A, locate the spider.
B, subtly arrange the crap on the shelf to look like terrain.
C, place down your mini's in suitable battle poses.
D, find a camera.
E, poke the spider until it does something interesting, and then photograph the ensuing battle against the Megarachnid.
F, include it in your armies personal lore.

You forgot the yellow stripe on the helmet.

>>54327947
Thank you friend
i will keep that in mind for attempt #2

god bless citadel averland sunset
the vallejo "deep yellow" sucks so bad

>>54320073
Zandri Dust covered completely by Agrax Earthshade makes a nice shit color. I think it looks pretty good on scouts, so it'll probably look good on guardsmen.

>>54327081
You could paint his belt buckle the same color scheme, even though it doesn't have the skull. Bone in the center and black on the cross,

What is the current project and the old models?

>>54328145

Current: BoP LC Tartaros
Old: Various FW tacticals

>>54328169
Donate them to a goodwill or eBay them if you hate them that much. No sense keeping them if they're just sucking fun.

>>54328099
jesus christ thats quite a backlog
I admire the variety though anon
how many armies do you collect?

Hey WIP, need a quick opinion. Been having trouble with recasting power packs for my sisters. Grills keep coming out fucked up as seen on the left. Tried hollowing out the exaust vents on one of the recasts instead of just chucking it as seen on the right. You think that would work out alright? Or should I just keep trying for a better recast?

>>54328169
Just throw yourself back into the setting.
Feel the Burning of Prospero, each Terminator you paint and his own history.
What is his story and how will you use the utmost of your talents to bring this story to life. How to improve upon each flaw you found in your previous models, so that each model is better then the last.
Force yourself to start, and just get into it.

>>54328222
Orks, custodes, Crimson fists, deathwing, and empire for AoS

Which reminds me i forgot to include the 60 handgunners, 80 swordsmen and 6 demigryphs I still have to paint for them

Its only like 350 models I still need to paint

>>54328286


So do you assembly line or have any tricks for getting them done quickly or is it a slog for every model?

>>54328358
Ill try to airbrush as much as i can to save time but beyond that its just tedious assembly line work

Ill just zone out and watch star trek for 12 hours while doing one step at a time on a huge batch of models

>>54328378
How many points of shit do you already have?

>>54328431

Stuff I already have painted

Orks:
25 nobz, 15 meganobz, 3 trukks, 5 battlewagons, a morkanaut, 3 biker nobz, 15 warbosses, 10 big meks, various other characters

Crimson Fists:
100 sternguard veterans, Pedro Kantor

Custodes:
5 custodes, 10 saggitarum guard, callidus grav tank

Empire: 20 handgunners, a few heros

>>54325476
I'm all for Tacticool shit and you clearly know what your doing, but what is the point of a silenced bolter... aren't the rounds huge and explosive?

>>54325476
>>54328607
He's not wrong. Bolters are gyrojets, which means 1) they leave a visible rocket plume leading from shooter to target, and 2) whatever propellant charge there is for the initial shot is only half the noise; the other half is the rocket motor sounding off the whole of the flight path.

>>54325205
>>54325481

Callidus -> Slaanesh (obvious)
Culexus -> Tzeentch (psykers)
Eversor -> Khorne (also obvious)
Vindicare -> Nurgle (process of elimination)
