The new Orks are pretty good. I'm not an ultra fan of the shape of the armor itself, but I am a huge fan of walking juggernauts incased in armor.

>That Megaboss

Gazzie can go back to bed.

I would like to know if its okay to use thinned down GW paint with your airbrush pistol or if that shit clocks to hell and back and if its better to get the FW airbrush for that?

Second, anyone here, ANYONE knowing a place or a guy selling the Forgeworld Hive Tyrant Venom Cannon?

>>46943953

Airbrush acrylics is just thinned down regular acrylics so it won't be a problem.

>>46943953
I thin GW paints an airbrush them, they're fine if you get used to the right ratio of thinner to paint, which just comes with experience.

GW sell airbrush paints which need little to no thinner, but since they don't sell them in stores I only have a few. They seem good but I'd still use a drop of thinner to make them go a bit further.

Forgeworld airbrush paints are pretty damn good. I use their Corvus Black for lots of things, because it is just off black. Great for leather and stuff. They don't have much sticking power though so careful handling models with lots of them on it you haven't sealed.

I already posted this in the previous thread but can I get some C&C on my Storm Knight? I still have to add the extra smoke bits and maybe the lightning parts but I'm not too confident about making the lighting look nice. If you have any advice on that, it would be much appreciated. I'm done with him yet but atm strapped for time and cant immediately change him up.

please go easy on me, im inexperienced and i know i should have thinned my paints more.

I posted this in the last thread but it was pretty much dead.

I want to do nurgle but I don't want the cliche green or flesh color scheme.

would blue work? does it look like fungus enough?

>first time painting or sculpting, go easy

First minis in progress, this is a lot harder than I thought it would be. I could do with getting a small layer or detail brush to get anywhere near applying details. I'm not sure if black legion colour scheme goes well with marines but I want to give it a go.

So far I've applied a thin layer of balthusar and auric on top of the terminator with washes. I'm not sure if the paints are thinning or if thr terminator model is snap fit and poor in quality.

I'm trying to wash everything with Agrax including the black armour because I'm cheap. Basically does anyone have any advice how to improve or finish up?

Had a wander into my FLGS and got this bad boy...with 15% off...feels good mang.

My heart says Rogue Trader colour scheme.

Also that photography article is pretty useful.

>>46946925
Salamanders RT color scheme.

But yeah, well done for this one. I got mine mine off ebay, as I wasn't in town when it got out. Went to my local GW, thought I might get one and offer it here, since I know many people here didn't get their own. But it apparently sold out in 2 hours in the shop.

>>46946925

Which FLGS is that then? I thought the only people still selling those were scalpers.

Anyone know how well high elf heads fit on stormcast? I want elven stormcast because reasons

So how would I go about converting a techmarine to an ordo mechanicus inquisitor? I was thinking about just sculpting him a hood and sticking some inquisition bits on him, but would there be a better way?

>>46946282
You need to make the edges white and fuzzy.

third attempt at marble (will apply gloss varnish later)

>>46944370
Not really. Some regular acrylic paints react badly with airbrush thinner. And you can further thin down airbrush paints, in fact you should never use airbrush paint directly from the pot into your airbrush.

>>46947949
that white marble is spot on, the black requires bits of quarts in it, but i can't say how that would be done

>>46947949
you've gotten the white bang on, it's way better than your first attempt, well done.

>>46948036
consider that my ability with photography fucks up the effect on the marble a little bit. black has more diluted lines and some lighter ones (where I still wobbled the hand to make it look less straight). maybe I should remove some of the lines though

>>46948087
well it's also thanks to you guys

>>46947949
White marble is much better.

Black on the other hand is still wayy to discernable. It doesn't look like random striages like it should be, right now it looks like thunder.

NEW PAINTING VIDEO FINALLY, BUT ITS NOT DUNCAN.

WHY.

I was thinking of buying BaC and using green stuff to make my own CSM out of it.

I've never used green stuff before though. How hard would it be to make it look as if the marines own bones are growing OUT of their armor?

>>46947489

>>46943888

damn he's a big guy

>>46950124
Well their new weirdboy could fit if you just want to do one of each Clan.

A feral ork would be sorta good for Bleeding Hollow.

The problem is that now the warcraft orks are extremely muscular, and have a head a bit above their shoulders, unlike the standard warhammer ork. New ones are perfect for that, but if you add some GS to make a higer neck and bigger muscles on old orks you can do the other clans.

>>46950236
For you.

>>46950408
I could do just one special unit of each clan and then fill the troops with brown orks.

I remember Vallejo paints getting all around positive reviews, but now I'm trying to acquire some and I forget if there's a difference between "model color" and "game color." Also, do tiny plastic dudes require a specific type of primer?

>>46943888

I usually tell people to re-size their needlessly large, uncropped png's, but please upsize your image.

>>46946038
It's looking really good so far, I think the issue is nothing pops. Maybe make the armor more shiny or add brighter highlights to the blue/green color. Keep going, I like him.

>>46943888

The armor shape is generic modern fantasy rocky/jagged/evil armor. See Deathwing from WoW, Darksiders, Warrior armor from WoW, comic books, Spawn's upgraded costume, League of Legends, etc.

The large, rocky, jagged carapace look is very popular for fantasy armor.

A) Dafuck is with that image.
B)It looks pretty neat generally, you've got highlights and contrast, but I think adding an accent colour to the scheme would have helped.
As it stands, blue, bluegrey, grey and silver all very much blend into one.

I'm now cutting up some of the black and white stripes to try out as the wall paper, but the stripes kinda hurt my eyes to look at for a long time so this will take a while.

I've got some fancy card stock with silk or velvet texture that I'm thinking of cutting some rugs for the entry way and some of the long halls.

And I'm thinking of replacing the front porch area with some balsawood to make it look like a proper outside deck/porch.

That's having a skull in your tabard-edging. The horned skull and book are the symbols of the Librarius.

>>46954937

You can, but you'd have to cut away his face and widen the hole a bit. It looks really good though. The old metal terminator grey knights and librarians had helmets.

The Deathwing kit and DV are nice, but they have a lot of winged swords on them.

The most important part about making a Deathwatch force is having the Deathwatch shoulder pad and painting them black with a silver arm. Should be very easy to do, especially with eBay for the cheap shoulders (everyone wants the power armor one so there's tons of Terminator ones) and the Deathwatch Overkill models for that awesome Salamander.

The DA also get a Deathwatch shoulder for their Deathwing.

I had to go back and change all the DW's in this post to Deathwatch and Deathwing.

You can get a tabletop standard just from drybrushing.

These are WIP from a year ago. I was mid-way through the fine-highlighting.

Armour was: incubi darkness, sybarite green, blue wash (sometimes twice).

Then you can highlight the edges with sybarite green again (like the legs have been done).

Also I would recommend the Death Guard HH scheme for Dark Eldar as well. Bone armour, and a few green plates, with some steel and brass metallics.

>>46957904
Oh, shit. I just realized that. I can do drybrushing quite well. Then I can just cover what I don't want up with some Incubi Darkness. Thanks.

I want to give a few of my Oath Broken marines in my Black Legion army some cybernetics, a few fake legs/arms and eye lenses.

Hit it with Arcane Blue (P3) thinned with white. Dry brush starting at the edges and moving into the center, stopping when you have a decent gradient. Then dry brush your edges with a soft brush in White. Your mass color is on point, but you need to dry brush those details into it.

>>46947949
The pattern is too large, it makes the scale look off, kind of like when you use coarse sand with tiny minis and it looks like everything is gravel or rocks instead of desert.
Also, you should probably try to blend some of it while the paint is still wet, the transitions are too rough, especially on the black side.

Try painting one layer of marbling, then painting it over with a thinned down coat of white to give it a translucent look before painting another layer of patterning.

>>46951804
Tiny plastic dudes do require some kind of primer, if you have an airbrush, vallejo polyurethane primer is awesome, and comes in lots of different shades and colors.

The game color and model color are just different lines. Game color is more vibrant and have a more GW style pallet, Model color is more muted and have more nuances since it's used by people who are autistic about what real panzer grey looks like etc.

>>46957679
Oh hey, are those burned wood? I got a bunch of custom sized model bases on ebay made of burned wood discs, they smell so fucking good.

Are the Vallejo metallics not that great or am I doing something wrong? I can thin as much as I want (using a Flow-Aid/Drying Retarder/Water mix which works fantastic for non-metallics, on a wet palette) and it still goes on way too thick, obscuring detail and looking weird in general.

I don't have any Citadel metallics to compare since I just recently got back into painting after a four year hiatus but looking at my old minis I painted with Citadel metallics there's a huge difference.

>>46961263
>>46961438

What are you diluting them with?

>>46961438
>>46961263
Vallejo metallics are way thick compared to the rest of their paints, the trick is to use a small amount of paint to cover a lot of miniature. even when watered down, rather than trying to get it to the same consistency as you use with your other paints.

In general I find GW's silvers to be better than vallejos, but vallejos golds and copper tones to be better than gws.

What kind of cup do use for the brushes?

671KB, 3888x2592px

>>46961741
This is a tricky one, generally you want to find a cup that
A: holds water (or other liquids) efficiently
B: has no holes in it.
C: Is not too small or too big
D: does not melt on contact with water (this disqualifies materials such as ice)

Other than that, you're good.

Unless you actually meant what cup to put your brushes in and leave them there, in which case the answer is either "none, ever, what are you doing to your brushes please stop" or "Literally any cup that doesn't fall over" depending on which end of the brush is pointing up.

>>46961741

>>46961894
don't leave them submerged in water

>>46961956

So what's the proper way to store them and cleaning the paint while you work with the miniature? Just a bit of water and leaving them on the side?

I see. How should I treat my brushes then? Just a bit of water and leaving them to dry for a while before picking another colour? How do I clean them?

>>46962058
>How should I treat my brushes then?
Like your women.
>Treat'em mean, keep'em keen.

>>46962058

Just give them a stir in your water to get rid of any remaining paint, give them a dab on your kitchen towel. I always give them a suck to straighten out the brush.

>>46962058
>Pick a brush
>Lightly wet it, you have no real reason to put a dry brush in paint
>Apply a bit of paint
>Apply paint to palette
>Use paint from palette, reapplying the brush, or adding more paint or more water as you desire (also keep a paper towel handy, brush across the towel to rid yourself of excess paint or to quickly dry a brush of excess water)
>When you are changing colors or finished, dip just the bristles into the water, do your best not to get any part of the brush beyond the bristles wet
>Thoroughly swirl the brush through the water until all the paint is removed
>Repeat earlier steps with new color
>When you are finished painting, clean all your brushes in warm water and with soap (or brush cleaner) and either hang them from something, or place them on a clean paper towel to dry
>Store brushes bristle side up, never leave them on their bristles
>For drybrushes, you don't have to worry about taking care of them, since their whole job is to be stiff, nasty brushes

Sorry to ask but does anyone have the alpha legion quick paint scheme some anon posted a while back? It was done doing glazes I think.

>>46962207
Gw should get into the candy business. Sell paint your own candy squigs. Paint them with food color paint, take pics then eat them. Fun for all.

>>46962304

Metal is layered up to runefang steel, second is two layers of guilliman blue, third is waywatcher green layer, and fourth is one final layer of guilliman blue and then details. Takes a while but pretty easy.

>>46962089

Thanks for the tips.

I was more wondering if/how this scheme can work on loyalties. As I think I realise now it's easier on chaos models as they have more popping details, reds and bones. Should I go for a bright gold or more copper. Should I try a thin grey highlight over the black or should I paint the armour eshin grey, highlight and then wash?

Hey mate, GW has a video on how to paint black armor, it looks pretty good, it's labeled "How to Paint Black Templars Armor", I believe. And the color scheme that you are painting is used by >>46949009 an Imperial Fists successor, albeit with green eyes.

Thanks I saw that guide but still thought my black wasn't looking that good in contrast to gold. I guess I can only test techniques on old minatures. I was going to go down the cliche Renege route as I imagine choas will get a real update within the year and the black legion supplement had an faction unworthy of demonic possessions that relied on repairs. Hence Irion Hands painted up as Black Legion.

I bought this guy to use as a Squiggoth for my Gorkamorka feral orks, thinking of making it in Dinoriders style, with platforms on the side to stand on, and a "splatapult" on top. But I don't want it to look straight up like a Triceratops, so I should at least change the head. Any ideas what I could use to make it more squiggoth-y? Maybe I'll just have to try sculpting something from scratch.

>>46963928
swapping heads for a tyrannosaur/other carnivore one would be a start. Squiggoths without a big toothy maw look strange.

>>46964187
Agreed. I have a resin monster head that would fit on the neck, but it'd look way too small and be at a strange angle. But getting another one just for the head would be kinda expensive. I'll see what can be done.

Wait. Do the legionaries on the left and right of first row hold two shields?

My sister does a lot of artsy shit. She wants to paint the minis she has for some of her games (right now Zombicide: Black Plague is standing out in my mind).

What are the odds she has an appropriate paint lying around if she's never painted miniatures before? Do you use the same kind of paint on minis that you might use in any other circumstances at all?

Are you a kid painting watercolors? Git gud.

>>46965648
Not an expert but any acrylic that can be thinned with water should work. The models still need to be properly primed so the paint sticks, though.

>>46965648
Miniature paints have a lot more pigment than regular acrylics; in order to thin them enough to be usable, you'll basically end up painting with slightly colored water.

Any good guide on applying transfer sheets and making it so it doesn't even look like it is a transfer?

micro-sol is I think the product you want

>>46965598
No, a shield held above covers more than one held normally.

You bunch up close and the guys at the very back of the testudo don't get quite as much cover over their heads, but it's at an angle that they're less likely to get done in from.

>>46966977
watch Duncan painting an Ultramarine on yt, he gives some good advice

>>46966977
You want tutorials on using micro-sol and micro-set, and after you've applied the transfer you can go over it with matte medium so it has the same finish as your paint.

>>46967212
I don't mean the shield on top, I mean the shield on the side.

>>46967259
Assume every rank needs one shield per man to give themselves adequate front and top coverage.

Add an extra file onto the edges of that, and squeeze them between the guys on the edge who are holding their shields up: they hold theirs to the side. Doing it this way makes it way slower to move about, but you have the extra protection.

Okay guys. So, the model and its base is 100% resin and it's the whitest resin i've ever seen. Quality is pretty great as well, meaning that it's both flexible and highly detailed. The casting is top notch, really nothing to complain about, minimal flash here and there.

There are quite a few optinal bits: Two guns, bolt and plasma, and three casting hands, staff, axe and... hand. Two heads and two sets of air ducts for his backpack. The base is also included and it's fully detailed.

All in all it's pretty solid, on par with GW's kits. Even the price is pretty much up there, i've paid 22.5€ for this guy.

Still, i recommend it. I mean, it's just a flat all out improvement over the decade old GW CSM stuff.

>>46967670
I use a 50€ LED lamp from ikea. Personally, i don't see the need for "professional" painting lamps, i think that pretty much any adjustable LED lamp will do.

the right shoulder will also need some green stuff, and I might need a bit for the emblem on the left pad after grinding down the stormcast symbol. I could just use a waterslide transfer if I had one small enough, but I've never been good with those ever.

Any place to get some acrylic strips or rods to make energy shield barriers? Best I can find are various complete terrain kits, but I'm just looking for the translucent barrier bits or something that could be used as one. 70-75mm in length would be best.

Shitty cropanon here back with another KD mini. I'm having problems making my minis look clean, is it the thickness of the paint or am I doing something else wrong? For example on the body it looks like there are tiny bumps but I have no idea what those are from.

Also what glue do you guys prefer to use?

>>46980066

Last one or the 3rd to last

Goggle around. I found some clear plasticard and rods digging around. But for some reason they are pricey compared to standards.

For you.

Is that thing entirely made out of green stuff?

>>46980294
You may want to consider making the walkways, stairs and tops of the parapets darker.

The rest looks fine though.

hahahaha no.

Finally finished this thing and ready to be ruined when I paint it.

What color scheme can I put on a Wraithhost to make a "Ghost in the Shell" joke?

>>46980358
It's Lord Chompybits from Malifaux.

Any tips on getting Citadel boneshaded colours (Rakarth Flesh, Ushabti Bone) to go on less chalky? I diluted with Flow-Aid/Water mix and added a bit of matte medium but it's still chalky in places. Plain water makes it chalky and hold the pigment even worse. The paints are pretty old, though, but I always had problems with chalkiness in whites and off-whites.

You can either go for the Major's scheme of pale purple/pink and charcoal grey, or go total Blue/White and imitate the Tachikomas.

tfw you paint your lads but you improve over the course of a few minis so the older ones look visually worse than the newer

Either never improve or git gud from the get-go.

>>46979871
Either hold them in place until the glue works its magic or try and prop them up on something, I normally use paint pots as they're the perfect size

>>46974450
I like them, but generally 95% airbrushed models are not popular here.

>>46977520
I practice free hand on paper with the same brush I intend to use on the model.

I have 15 gasmasks from the cadian command squad boxes. That's not enough to hand out to all 50 on the blob, and I'm thinking they might look cool. Do I just put them on the unit of vets I'm gonna use along side the blob for the other essential troop choice, or do I hand them out to flamers and heavy flamers, or do I hand them out all nilly willy?

>>46981267
flamers and gasmasks m8

>>46981267
Or you could recast them, or buy some FW ones or from a third party to do your entire army with gasmasks if that is what you wanted.

>>46981267
Greenstuff them over everyone. It's not that hard.

Just finished basing this guy. I'm pretty pleased with how the base turned out, but I was originally planning on doing lava bases for my dwarfs. Now that I have so little base real estate on the HQ, I'm thinking the lava effect might be hard to pull off. Do you think black ash piling up among the stones would look better than lava for this guy?

>>46981511
Gotcha. I know nothing about cars, so I'll look around for that specific one. Thanks.

Like >>46980377 said. water's going to pool on those walkways, I'd use your browns on the edges and leave it lighter towards the center, where people walk.
