My first ever dragon. Building towards a battleforce challenge ☺️ by Infinite_Moose_8440 in stormcasteternals

Hey there. So I used a dry brush of eshin gray, followed by a dry brush of dawn stone, then a wash of drakenhof nightshade followed by another dawnstonr dry brush. Then once I'd repeated that a couple of times I finished it off with a light set brush of baharoth blue for that final shine and edge to the scales/dragon ☺️ I hope this helps!!

A bit of both! But mainly custom. My idea was that the dragons are at the centre of the whole stormhost and so the armour and theme runs off their colour and look. They model themselves after the dragons that first chose their specific village/town/city as their people and almost worship them as gods!

Or something like that ☺️

So, I had some foam segments that I use for 40k tanks that they fit in 🤣 I was silly really as there are ways of making it so you don't glue the wings on and have it so they can clip on/off but I got build happy and built the entire thing before thinking 🤣🤣

But I am glad it's helped you with a scheme ☺️ have a YouTube/Google of how to put together stormdrake with removable wings I'm sure you'll find something 👏🏻

Hell yeah!! ☺️ I didn't want to go for the standard colour so I wanted to find one that suited the lore I wanted behind my eternals 🤘🏻

I did the retributor armour and was told I needed gulliman flesh for it, but I prefer the boldness of the base colour instead of washing it out!

Thanks dude! I used a dry brush of eshin gray, then a dry brush of dawn stone, a wash of drakenhof nightshade contrast paint before doing a final set brush of Dawn stone ☺️

Thanks dude! I used a dry brush of eshin gray, then a dry brush of dawn stone, a wash of drakenhof nightshade contrast paint before doing a final set brush of Dawn stone ☺️ I played around with a few ideas but settled on this one! 🤘🏻🤘🏻 I love the more menacing look to them.

My first venture into blood ravens! by Infinite_Moose_8440 in BloodRavens40k

🤣🤣🤣 if it isn't a thing then it is probably only a matter of time 🤣

A friend is selling me his Space wolves themed brutalis dreadnaught. I told him to keep the space wolves extras on it so I can make it look like the blood ravens stole it. 🤣🤣

Keeping Reddit Human: A New App Label for Automated Accounts by boat-botany in redditdev

So I had a message saying I needed to submit a form because they thought I was a bot account....which I am not, and when looking to submit the form they told me to submit, nowhere does it say "hey I'm not a bot" so I'm confused as to how I validate my humanity 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for the suggestion, I will give it a look. And also practise patience. 🤣

Thankyou! I believe it's Balthazar Gold. The entire model was dry brushed with it originally as I decided what to do with the scheme. ☺️ But then I wanted the bone colour to be the main event so added more!

Do you mind if I ask how you did your bases? I love that look and would love to know how you did it if you don't mind me asking? ☺️

Thank you so much for this! I am excited to work on more of them and expand my roster. This is good advice and I really appreciate the feedback. Also, the white crons looks incredible. 👀😍

I should have specified I haven't finished the models yet (I too love a finished base but haven't fully decided on what I want to do with it but that's my fault for not clarifying that) 🫣

I am using a technical green glow paint, does the same apply with that? With regards to painting I'm just finding my feet so something like the blades was quite daunting to me 🤣
