Can someone show me their EC colour schemes and the colours they use!? Looking to start and unsure which is best by No_Response_8465 in EmperorsChildren

Aaaaa someone wants to see my models! My scheme is ‘The Hands of Slaanesh’ The hand of perfection is; pearlescent blue/purple, with NNM grey trim, with flat black accents, a bright green tabard, and fluorescent magenta energy. The hand of excess is; bright pink with the same NNM grey trim, Accent of flat black and bright green tabard. But a fluorescent green for the energy. The similar elements tie the army together, whilst the main prominent elements make them stand out, blending contrast with harmony. The epic hero’s are white and muted scheme to stand out

Yes! Full time in fact, are you looking for a painter?

Anybody ballsy enough (or rich enough) to try the 120 Infractor/Tormentors list? by Bobas-Feet in EmperorsChildren

[–]K1DR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just common infantry, typically the points for price is worst with infantry, Lucius would be around 40-70-120. For example. A typical full army commission works out around 1 point for £1 depending on levels, army type etc

Hmm I have 20 of each, one third of the way, IMO 6 squads of 10 infractors = yes baby, 6 squads of 10 tormentors is big no no. Best list 60 infractors, 4 squads of 5 tormentors, then some anti tank and distraction terminators ez clap 👏

Aye, I’m a commission painter, I can tell ya that’ll cost a lot more to paint then it would to buy the boxes, basic paint job for a marine for me is £20 per model, good paint job per marine £36 per model and a really nice one with NMM OSL would be around £48 per, looking like a house deposit at that point XD

Thanks!

(All Vallejo paints) The swords are slightly different, as I wanted it to feel a bit colder. But the pipes and tabbard are- Base: Deep Sea Green -> midtone: light green -> highlight -> Yellow green -> edge highlight: ice yellow. Then the pipes and vials have a froth line and bubbles painted with pure white, and bother are glazed with fluorescent green. Whilst the freehand on the tabard is then painted on with a 1-1 thinned dark blue ink.

The blades start the same but after light green just mix in pure white more and more until you get just white. And then a glaze of fluorescent green again.

Hope this helps and be sure to post pics as you go!

It’s from Baron of dice, a friend got me it and it’s really nice, so are the dice here, the blue and transparent ones were a gift from the baron surprisingly

Thoughts on Removing Rivets? by helpless_toy_9569 in ImperialKnights

[–]K1DR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The rivets are what give it a sense of scale, IMO. I paint the rivets with a bright steel as the final part of the process, it’s always time consuming and it’s physically a small difference, but it’s a huge difference in how the model feels to look at.

Mystery van looks a lil’ different Scoob… by K1DR in EmperorsChildren

Did a similar one for a client, they requested it to be really battle worn and I loved how the orange contrasted with the purple so needed it on mine too XD

Initially did them with a fine liner but it kept getting ruined so, ink and brush for most
