WooHoo - great to have it back and I very much look forward to it expanding. Definitely one of the best sources for inspirational epic models anywhere online.

Congrats on the MA too !

Ah... Sweet nostalgia! A big reason as to why I'm still in.

That airship is freakin awesome! WMN, What model kit is that based on? I need to get me some of those for my DKOK army.

Also, i really like your colour pallette you used to dry brush your cathedral imperialis. Were they GW paints?

Cheers Kriegsspiel and thank you for the kind words :)

The airship is based on a Revell 1:720 scale Hindenburg model. Wonderfull kit - and huge too: about 35 cm from nose to tail.

From memory I think the cathedral was painted with layers of drybrushing based on a catachan green (Vallejo equivalent) with some white added for the highlights. though it's been a while, so there's probably some chaos black mixed in there as well to make it look greyer. Getting the right color on one off pieces like this is never an exact science. I think I probably started with a black/catachan green mix and worked up the color with layers of drybrushing, adding more catachan green and white. But don't ask me about the exact ratios. For something equivalent for a larger army, i'd probably mix a pot of black catachan, a pot with catachan and a mix of black and a slight bit of white, and probably some catachan green/white for the top highlights.
As mentioned I was really annoyed with this paint job since I messed it up the first time round by attempting to drybrush using foundation colors, and the materials used in the kitbash didn't allow me to strip the old paint off properly. :(

That's a great help WMN. I've always had difficulties coming up with ways to create colour schemes like yours and always end up using just the colours as they come and avoid mixing. I plan on starting my DKOK tomorrow but I reckon I'll have a go at trying your colour scheme before I start painting proper..

Oh, and I'll be hunting down a couple of those Hindenburg models too. Your conversion is a cracking model.

Thank you very much ;)
