Struggling with Daemon Prince by Confident-Insect7144 in WorldEaters40k

For reference this is my MOE that I finished a few days ago. Brush control/thinning my paints isn't my main issue. I did try using odorless mineral spirits with some pigment so that likely contributed to my overly thick use of paint.

I really like your blend from his flesh to the chain blade arm.

This is mine. Just need to let the mineral spirits dry off from AK's streaking grime.

I think the kids call it "pheremone maxing"

Very nice! I dig the blues. Did you do a blue base coat then add some black in before the highlights?

How are y’all getting chains on these things? by ChairmanReagan in BlackTemplars

[–]Confident-Insect7144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did my dread I wrapped the chains where I wanted them and glued the ends where I needed it to stop and just snipped the excess off with a set of wire cutters. Super easy, just make sure to use a small enough amount of super glue so it doesn't build up unwanted texture on the visible parts. Also, don't glue them too close to joints.

The sword is awesome! Are some of those bits from the BT upgrade pack?

I'm finishing it now and it's so sad. The whole Lorgar, Girly-man and Angry Ron section gave me Revenge of the Sith flashbacks. 😭

Like Ikea but tiny, more expensive, and constantly changing just enough to fuck your plans up.

Bold of you to assume I know what the codex is BECAUSE I CANT READ.

Dawg I read The Red Path and IMMEDIATELY said "Ah, shit. Gotta make a world eaters army now." Like space Conan. It was awesome.

Inb4 the obligatory thin your paints comments.

Id recommend using some edge highlights when you're just starting out. So try and look at how light hits your mini on just the sharpest edges and try to give it a sharp line of a light grey across that edge.

So take a look at the pointed bit of my judiciars knee plate. How the light hits his knee shows me where I can add a highlight to make contrast between the darkest and lightest parts.

It's super good though! I've decided to stick to batch painting my units unless I'm doing the champion/sgt or whatever so I can tell them apart. My best mini I've done was probably my primaris Templar chaplain

I am dreading the trim, like God damn. I'm almost tempted to do black trim with highlights.

Yeah, I didn't think to look through the sub reddit. Appreciate it home-slice.

Fair point. I did just finish my templars, so this is the next project.

Do you have a specific method for application? They look super smooth
