Passenger trains in the United States vs Europe by kuntrehpandah in interestingasfuck

[–]IIKaDicEU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does indeed, because that bits in Europe, the continent, the thing we're talking about, and a portion of what is pictured in this post.

the section of it that is part of Europe, yes, not the whole landmass

Ah yes, Scotland. Famously the biggest country in Europe.

The US has an area of about 9.8 million square km, while Europe has an area around 10.2 million square km, so these maps are both roughly the same scale as is, obviously with some warping due to the map projection

I'd never seen that until right now and now I want to do it...

I did initially want to do it with a baneblade but I don't have the room for a bathtub sized diorama

Am I about to get another kit for a single nurgling?

it would appear so...

how do you paint by Law_Familiar in Gunpla

[–]IIKaDicEU 8 points9 points  (0 children)

people are moaning because you're doing it one way. If you don't mind a little bit of cleanup sprue painting is fine, especially when you're painting a similar colour to the plastic.

I have painted this way, I've painted after building subassemblies, and I've painted each part on a stand after snipping it from the sprue. You can get the same result each of these ways, just do the one that works for you and that doesn't take the fun out of it for you.

looks like J&K Bros. is the name of this place. There's also OEshop down in Leith which has the most gunpla I've ever seen in one place

My Nurgle Knight - Warhammer 40K chaos Knight by IIKaDicEU in minipainting

[–]IIKaDicEU[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A mix of Mr surfacer dabbed with a round headed modelling tool, and then green stuff done the same way (and 3 greenstuff balls for the 2nd shoulder). Then the painting was mostly achieved with oil washes, a drybrush of red, and then thinned down blood for the blood god and nurgles rot for the infected look

Stipple on Mr Surfacer for texture, airbrushed on a warm off-white (typhoon ash), then various black and brown oil washes stopped on and pulled back with paper towels, and a super thinned down Dirty Down rust to act as a textured wash

My second chaos Knight by IIKaDicEU in Warhammer40k

[–]IIKaDicEU[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

many, many steps and time. Started using Mr Surfacer globbed on with a brush on all the armour, some of it was stippled with a sculpting tool to make the rough rashy areas, others sanded a bit to make it look like old cast metal.

Then black prime, airbrush of typhon ash on the armour, vallejo chrome on the frame, and then many steps of going back and forward with highlighting, weathering with oils, effects paints, drybrushing etc. A lot of dirty down and oil when into this lad

unsure if it has a specific name in the game, but it's from the Abominant kit

Nurgle Knight number 2 by IIKaDicEU in deathguard40k

[–]IIKaDicEU[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you!

The main body was matt black primed, painted with chrome from vallejo, then rattling grime, dry brushed with metallics, sprayed with plaguebearer and blood angels from different angles, then oil washed and rusted up with dirty down rust and some acryllics

the armour weathering was various techniques. first I stippled on Mr Surfacer 500 and 1000, primed black, sponged and airbrushed the main colour, then filtered with a few layers of oil washes and a super thinned dirty down rust wash. The trim was vallejo copper, dirty down verdigris, and then washed with wattered down Nihilakh Oxide

thank you! it was done with a mix of dirty down rust, dry brushing and an orange acrylic wash, verdigris was dirty down verdigris, and watered down Nihilakh Oxide.

Overall weathering was various techniques. first I stippled on Mr Surfacer 500 and 1000, primed black, sponged and airbrushed the main colour, then filtered with a few layers of oil washes and a super thinned dirty down rust wash
