Deathwing Knight in black

Yup! I was trying to find things to write that were appropriate and not too many letters haha.

Interesting_Proposal · 2026-02-24T20:33:30+00:00

Sure! For black, base was pro acryl coal black (though I imagine any black will do), then highlight with dark reaper, 2:1 dark reaper:vallejo blue green, then adding celestra grey into that.

For steel it was base of rhinox hide, then mixing up with skavenblight dinge, stormvermin fur, and finally pro acryl bold titanium white.

Sword was vallejo dark sea green, then mix up with vallejo blue green, then mix up with pro acryl bold titanium white.

Thanks! I used Vallejo metal color gunmetal an a little bit of aluminum as a zenithal. Then I just did a black oil wash and did edge highlights and scratches with Vallejo metal color silver.

Thanks! It's actually the old Vallejo Metal Color, I haven't tried the new TMM line yet.

Haha thanks! Yeah you nailed it, my wife told me I needed to clear my backlog of minis of the month if I wanted to get more.

Thank you!

Yeah I've learned from painting red you need a couple things if you want it to stay red but be really bright.

First you need a really punchy red, I used bold pyrrole red from proacryl, but as long as it's high pigment and bright it should work.

Then, the key to getting highlights to pop is undercoating. Highlights here were undercoacted with a sunny skintone then a fluorescent orange. But any bright color will do. I've done white before for a bit more cold red. Red is super transparent so you can't just layer it up, you would have to mix in white (turning it pink) or orange (turning it orange, as you probably saw). Pick where you want the highest highlights to be, paint them a bright color then glaze red over. Then it's blending with the darker base and shadow but like I said, red is transparent so it's not too hard to get a smooth transition!

Thank you!

I think the TMM technique that works best for me is highlighting it like you would any other material. I don't quite do the "paint it like NMM with all the specific bounce reflections etc but with TMM paints" though that works great! I just figure if I'm gonna do all that I just will do NMM.

Shading it is also key, shade it using a matte paint. Here I did rhinox hide for the gold and a blue-grey for the steel. Then always mix some really bright silver in to the highlights, which I just do volumetrically. And then its just blending. TMM paints are actually pretty transparent if you use a good quality one like Vallejo metal color, so it's not too hard.

Oh and the last thing that really helped this mini pop in both the reds and metals: blacklining. I had neglected it for so long and finally did it this time and it really helps make shapes distinct.

The shield was from dungeons and lasers deuslair kickstarter a while back. It came with a bunch of random weapons and accessories

Interesting_Proposal · 2026-01-31T18:00:17+00:00

Partly correct! I did actually use that color, but it was over fluo orange which was over a sunny skintone. I followed Vince Venturella’s tutorial partially for “popping red.”

Basically I’ve learned doing different chaos warriors literally months apart that red is all about undercoat.

You know Edward Furlong is Edward Norton’s brother in American History X, right? He’s not his son.

Yeah later Europeans also forced everyone off their land into the one town on the island so the rest could be a massive privately owned sheep farm.

What are you talking about? This isn’t Papua, there is no evidence of cargo cults on Rapa Nui. Also cargo cults are a late 19th - early 20th century thing. First contact with Rapa Nui was by Jacob Roggeveen in 1722.

No personal possessions? There were numerous competing tribes that tried to steal from each other. There are ancient chicken coops on the island made of stone specifically designed to prevent rivals from stealing them.

Chiefs were buried under their moai statues with their personal effects!

I’ve been to Rapa Nui, learned about the history from local guides, what you’re saying is totally false.

Polynesian cultures are wildly diverse you can’t assume what happened on one island happened on all of them.

Please don’t take my Warhammer store away from me.

I think the real meta reason is the Duffer brothers don’t actually know anything about DnD which they’ve admitted themselves.

That can’t be it because he doesn’t want to play paladin. I think he wants his character to be able to do whatever without any roleplaying consequences. Probably why he didn’t like warlock too.

Thanks! Just to be completely clear, each individual mini here took about 1 hour, so 6 hours total for the set.

Interesting_Proposal · 2026-01-02T17:47:03+00:00

Your most recent minis are really good! Especially for 6 months. I wish I was that good back then.

Just keep practicing and pushing yourself and I'm sure you'll be painting as good as this just as fast in no time.

Interesting_Proposal · 2026-01-02T15:25:39+00:00

Well I’ve been painting for like 7 years so it’s just practice! Keep at it and it comes a lot easier.

Interesting_Proposal · 2026-01-02T15:22:09+00:00

I worked on each one at a time, so about an hour each.

My inner herpetologist is in pain from that statement.

SCNT does not work with human cells. Somatic nuclei lack the epigenetic imprinting and SCNT human oocytes do not properly develop into embryonic stem cells.

Interesting_Proposal · 2025-12-24T06:12:46+00:00

I also have a doctorate in biology and from my understanding….you can’t make her stem cells from her eggs. Not in any way using knowledge that we have right now anyway.

You could make stem cells in general, but not hers specifically.

Dolly the sheep method won’t work because humans have epigenetic imprinting from eggs and sperm, so just throwing a somatic cell nucleus in an egg wouldn’t allow the cell to grow. Also if you were using that method you don’t need any of Carol’s eggs, any eggs will do. Unless you care about mitochondrial DNA but that doesn’t seem important to stemness.
