I can't seem to recall if you said how you painted the white. The lining looks just perfect.

I can't even get my red looking like that. It really is fantastic, and the subdued basing is a great contrast.

Thanks!

My recipe for painting white:
- Dheneb stone basecoat
- dark brown ink wash (Devlan Mud/Agrax Eartshade)
- highlight with Dheneb stone/white mix
- final highlight with pure white
- weathering with Charadon granite
- very light sepia glaze

This results in a subtle off-white, not the glaring white you see in the photos. Try as I might, I never succeed in capturing the real colour when taking pictures

Looks fantastic

so much inspiring work........torn between being motivated and wanting to give my hobby away

the fellblade squadron was particularly nice

My VII Legion thread.......hopefully when you click it i actually have done something new.......

The VII involved in battle reports, probably fighting Atcho, Locknar or moridin

Awesome and very inspiring...

Beautiful army!

It sure has been a while

I could use a whole list of excuses, but the truth is simply that I got fed up with all that white. So I painted a couple of Dreadball models, some Goblins for Kings of War, some other stuff. But last January, I revisited my Death Guard. Maybe a single Dreadnought, I thought, just to find out if I could ever return to painting white. The result? Well...

The first wave of reinforcements: some more Contemptor Dreads and a Deredeo


Predators


And their buddies: Scorpius, Plasmapred and Hyperios


A Javelin squadron - fantastic models, a real joy to paint!
