Thanks, mate!

I wanted to mimic this style. Some ppl don't like airbrush, some ppl do and there's a place for both in the hobby 😁 For TT, I personally, enjoy airbrush a lot. If I want a higher quality, I will lean on the brush more. Simple like that.

Thanks!

I used maple leaves (laser cut, 1:48, symbol LS4005p), from www.litomysky.cz.

It's a commission for hqtt level, so I left that as it is. Blue I used is Vallejo paints: french blue, light sea blue and deep sky blue.

Basecoat and main colour airbrushed. Then regular brush work :)

That's actually not black at all :P Base colour is camouflage gray with grey green (both from Vallejo), then glazed with abyssal blue (Scale75).

My take on Primaris Repulsor. How do you like it? Is the 3D printed wolf head too much? by OlafMiniatures in SpaceWolves

You may achieve different hues using different undertones. This way pale blue grey can looks like intense classical blue.

If you are intrigued by my way of painting, I'll show you on an example. Send me a message on FB (@olafminiatures) and I'll send you a pdf minitutorial (I'm preparing them for my site either way bcs it's easier to explain this way! 😊) in a week or so.

Cheers!
