Cool! Great to see you return to your 6mm scifi stuff.
Really like the finish on those oildrums.
Thanks! I have tons more planned over the next few weeks, I just got too get them done before I get the fantasy itch again!
Cheers Primarch!
Thanks Epic, I'm back at it hard! Between AoS and a nice summer I lost a lot of time and heart in my sci fi stuff! (I must be the only person to have moved to a colder wetter country but gotten more suntan/brown than I ever have in my life!
) Hope your eyes get better soon, a good rest can always good, but not when its forced on us!
Next up:
A chaos Minotaur 'boss' character.
Through cosmic chaos, through burning stars, abyss horns now bray.
The dark is calling infernal beings on paths of fire...I had to fiddle with the brightness a fair bit for the blood effects to show up, so the highlights on his face are not any where near that clean and bright, but I might go back over them later as his facial features are not as clear in real life. I have a some more beastmen already painted up, they just need basing. It will probably turn in to a whole beastman warband later on.
I wanted to test painting the barrier before I committed to painting all of them. It came out way neater than I though I could get it. I need to go back and paint in some highlights on the black, and will probably weather them, but as it came out so neat I didn't want to ruin it with brown washes too soon!!
Ethereal ButcherI had this mini left over from when I was testing a paint scheme to paint a much larger dark eldar force for epic. I wanted to add a bit more horror to my skirmish forces, so decide to try out the blood basing I'd seen done on 40k, and see if I could replicate it in 6mm. I think it came out pretty well, though it is way to dark, I had done it over black and brown thinking it would have given some nice depth to the blood, but it was too dark at this scale. I tried it again with a new mini, and this time went for a brown/tan undercoat to make it a lot lighter.
Blood Daemon warping in to the physical realmStill drying when I took this. The blood is drying much better, the lighter coat really helped. It will need another glaze or two to clean up some of the patchy areas of green warp. (the glaze removed some of the original wash, even though I had let it dry) then It needs a gloss coat to help smooth it out and blend it in to the daemon (who is very very glossy now hes dry!)
Had a good break myself as eyes not good at the moment but can not wait to get the brushes back out
