Nice fleet...

what type gold are you using on your ships?

Phew - VERY nice, BH.
Just one suggestion - not to make them better, because, they're grand already, just something different: a spot of flesh wash carefully applied to the gold bits gives them a burnished appearance, and a slightly richer colour.
Nice choice of colours too :)

Thanks!

Gold... Dwarven Bronze!! Don't know if they still have it. Plus mine hass dried up at least 8 times. Water still ressurects it. So it is really watered down.

In the past I used chestnut ink (on the Flame of Asuryan for example) over the bronze.

Flesh wash could be an option. Thanks!

Nice looking fleet, it would almost make me feel bad shooting such nice looking ships down.

Thanks guys! ( I guess I will field these ships whenever I'll play Mark Logue....... heh heh).

Let down :(
I varnished them..... and I like them! Maybe I'll 'fix' the last 2 Wraithships....

I think the Dragonship (2nd pic) is one of  my better BFG miniatures. Would even say I'm more proud of the end result as on the Custodian which I immensly love.

The 'clean' blue:

primed (spray) white
* regal blue, couple of very watered down layers. This creates a good deep blue colour.
* watered down enchanted blue to start a lighter layer.
* enchanted blue along the sharp edges, or watered down to increases the rich lighter blue colour on the flat surfaces.

The applying a watered down lighter colour over a darker colour is a technique I frequenlty apply.
