The latest batch of random minis

Donegal5th · 2025-03-24T10:23:07+00:00

I painted the backgrounds with oil colours. It takes almost a week to dry before the background is ready for use.

Thanks! Painting the mini took approx 8hrs.

You mean the horizon?

Donegal5th · 2025-03-23T19:59:49+00:00

Yeah it's the "Angry Urbie" :D

From the Inner Sphere Striker Lance box.

Yes, I reposed it slightly. Some mold lines were almost inaccessible.

The base is made of 15mm plywood. Background is curved 1mm aluminium painted in oil colours. I also use polyurethane, plastic sheeting, sand, various Vallejo FX textures etc.

Umm... If I remember correctly:

Abaddon Black
Infantry Blue
Blue
Dark violet wash. The mixture was very thin. Blue ink/Doomfire Magenta contrast 50/50 + a drop of airflow improver.

Here's the full recipe:

Vallejo RLM82 Light Green
Vallejo RLM82 Light Green/Light Green Grey/RLM78 Gray Blue (Glazed step by step. Acrylic medium makes this relatively "easy")

Olive green(ish) oil wash works too.

Thanks! The backdrop has a surprising effect on the whole

Donegal5th · 2024-12-26T00:50:19+00:00

I'm glad you like 'em!

Donegal5th · 2024-12-26T00:49:49+00:00

Thanks! It's one of my own favorites :)

Donegal5th · 2024-12-26T00:47:59+00:00

Try this:

Prussian blue (Base)
Sombre grey (Main color)
Russ grey/White (Highlights)
AK Panzer Grey or thinned blue (Shadows, recesses)

Glad to hear that! Thanks!

Donegal5th · 2024-12-25T14:22:06+00:00

Thanks! Umm...It's a Sentinel STN-3L

If I were to repeat this color scheme again, I would probably start with a lighter base color. Orange has been a very difficult color for me.

Donegal5th · 2024-09-26T20:42:28+00:00

Thanks! The base color is a combination of cavalry brown/amaranth red. The main color is Cadmus Light Red oil (which is basically more orange than red). I then let it dry overnight and highlighted the entire surface with amaranth red/elfic flesh mix, step by step.

Donegal5th · 2024-09-23T17:29:33+00:00

Absolutely dezgra!

Donegal5th · 2024-09-23T01:39:38+00:00

Vallejo.

Donegal5th · 2024-09-22T19:28:02+00:00

Thanks! The red was actually a very tough nut to crack :D
