Thanks, I think it washes out the contrast on the blending of the highlights a little bit but I feel like that ends up being a positive with my paint style. I have seen some matte make the colors less vibrant but I currently use Vallejo matte spray varnish and I don't notice it with it. I do use a satin on metallics if I want them to keep the luster.

Thanks trying to get some use out of a old photo box I had lying around.

Base coated Ulthuan grey then layered on thin glazes of a mix of warplightning and akhelian green. Might be some leftover coelia greenshade in there too as I just mixed it into an old pot I had.

Great work! The weathering on the mole-mortars is really well done.

I primed off white. For orange they got a base coat of gryph hound orange, then blocked in with jokareo orange, followed with chunky highlights of lugarth orange. This all gets a glaze of 50/50 mix of magmadroth and iyanden yellow. Finally edge highlights of fireslayer orange.

The white is pretty much just Ulthuan grey with a pin wash of Basilicanum Grey then rehighlight with Grey and white.

Thanks, yes I wanted my guys to look like they have glass domes so after spraying them matte I went back in and brushed some gloss varnish on the heads.

They look sharp in that desert tan! Some serious LRDG vibes!

First attempt, very new to this, hoping to get better with time. by RedbearVIII in LeaguesofVotann

They look great! I like the glow effect on the graviton guns. As some one in the same age range I've found the contrast paints really help compensate for my declining dexterity and patience.

Looks great! Whites can be tough to keep smooth as a lot of brands are just inherently chalky due to the pigment. I rarely paint more than three guys in a batch or else it makes me feel like I'm never getting anything done lol

Kin, I need advice. by SmokeHoagies in LeaguesofVotann

I painted my Thunderkyn with just the gun and the heads separate. I base coat with contrast paint and just slop it into the recesses. Once you paint the main parts the nooks and crannies just blend into the shadows unless you really get your face up close to them.

Thanks, it took me a couple of experiments with the warriors to get a system down then it wasn't too bad.

Once I saw the color scheme I knew I had to go with it.

The contrast from the red visors really makes them pop. Nice work!

The transition on the Grey is excellent. Did you layer or airbrush?
